Put the passing lamps back on, the upside down turn signals don`t do anything for the looks...

Very nice bike, congrats.

Agreed WP

I have been riding back and forth to work now. Always starts and runs good. Man, so much more comfortable than then sporty. I though I would get rid of the sowing machine sound though. I guess it is just a normal HD sound from the primary?
Gonna have to get a shorter seat. This one puts me up in the draft from the fairing to much, which I only notice on the highway.

Mechanically in good shape. The top end was recently done before I traded. (No paper work so will have to trust). I will have a few minor items for the winter.
I have to turn off the gas when I turn off the bike. So, some carb maintenance is needed. Also when I turn the bike off get 1 or 2 drops off oil. It is off the oil filter. The filter is tight but it has some play. So will need to investigate that as well.

Over all I am very pleased. I think it was a good trade.

Do you have lowers on that? It may be the "draft" you're getting is coming from under the fairing. Otherwise get your self a recurve type windshield, LRS is a forum sponsor and have frequent sales. Congrats on your new ride!
