Installed Wild 1 Chubby 10" apes on Saturday and I love 'em! They pull back right to where I want them so now I'm sitting up straight and actually able to use my backrest. I really like the wider, flatter hand position too.

I've had the bike for just over a month and this was my first time working on a bike with a fairing. A pain in the ***, but well worth it!

I learned what happens when I don't tighten my gas cap at least one click when I put it back on after fueling... my oil warning lamp gets lit when I start up. Then the lamp goes out when I tighten the gas cap.

I even experimented and turned off the bike a couple of times to see if I could repeat it. Sure could.

So I learned me sumthin...

I know, not as impressive as new handlebars, new pipes, or even cleaning the bottom of my jiffy stand - but for me it was a good day!

If you mean in the steel cabinet, no, it's a box that a Bell 500 Custom helmet came in. LOL!

Wow, can you imagine being on a scoot and hearing the thunder of those rocks coming down, let alone being caught in something like that. MJ, go buy some lottery tickets, lol, it's your lucky day.

Oh yeah. I also modified my kickstand plate with a cord but wanted it to look like it was made that way.
