Not for nothing, but if I were inclined to keep the artwork, the pinstriping would have to go.. the colors look weird together for me.
I am either going back to a factory sticker.. or a one-off pirate flag design. I haven't decided yet.

Oh you KNOW that is coming... I have to sort out a couple of things this weekend.. and then I will be on the modification path!! That was part of what made me want to go slightly older.. I was able to pay cash (first time for me).. so I don't have those pesky payments eating up my cash.
Nice scoot by the way.. I think the flag was tastefully done....

So fellas, what is the basic blueprint for modifying Evos?
I know I want a Thunderheader 2:1. That sound sends blood to all the right places. Can we build the rest around that?
I am loving the idea that I can tune this thing by adjusting/jetting the carb, rather than needing Artificial Intelligence to modify my ECU!!!

The correct original tanks for that bike are common, and nice sets on ebay all the time.
There is a stretched 6 gallon set on there right now if you want something a little different.

You coming to BBBBQ next weekend (9/23)? It's practically local for you and a good "get to know the bike" trip from south central OK.
And I like the tanks. Nothing say "F-you" today like the stars and bars. There's not even a need to go with MegaThunder Ear-Splitter II pipes.
