Default Got it all back together and running


Finally got it all put back together after some minor issues it’s running like a new bike! I couldn’t be any happier with the work that hillside did for me Scott every time I called with stupid questions was always happy to help me! I’m super excited to see what this baby can do now will update when I get some miles on her

Sounds like fun. Any money spent at Hillside is money well spent. I think you'll be pleasantly satisfied (for now any way!).

Default First ride


Well I just got done with her first ride about 10 mins or so around the neighborhood and without giving it to much throttle which is hard not to it feels stronger than it did before I rebuilt it I can’t wait to put some more miles on it and get it tuned and really see what she’s got😁

Good to be able to do that yourself. You've got a nice looking and nice running ride there. You do know black bikes are the fastest, right ?
