Bike looks great. What did you do with the stretched bags?

Thanks, guys. The bags were super cracked and spidered throughout so I ditched them.

I like these threads. Bike looks mean as hell! I like it. Maybe black tour pack hardware to finish it off? Much better looking bike IMO. Nice job.

Great looking scoot. How does it ride with the new front end? I’ve same shocks. Been wanting to upgrade front end maybe!

Totally agree. Need to pick up the black hardware. Just didn’t have time before bike week.

suspension is great. I have really enjoyed it. The legend as well as the frame stabilizer have made a world of difference.

I still I’ll have a pretty bad wobble around 45 mph. Not sure if it is the 21” front wheel or what

Nice build. Was the wobble always there or just developed. Just wondering about the bikes early history.

H20, I don’t remember it being there before but with the 23” it rode terribly so may not have noticed.

the wobble now is between 45mph and 50mph. If I take my hands off it will shake like hell. Not uncommon I don’t think but I don’t know the solution.
