Was this your question?

I snapped a couple of pics of it today. I went and put a few more miles on it. I played around with the dispay for a while. By spring I might have it figured out, but i doubt it. It needs a 135 Stage IV badge for the a/c but i dont think they make one. Fugly reflectors need come off the forks. Still waiting for the title. Hopefully next week....

Whoo Hoo!

Keep an eye on that rear tire for tread wear!

With all that acceleration fun, the tread seems to wear off pretty quick.

Enjoy the ride!

How was the part throttle drivability, and did it feel hot on your legs?

What's the easiest way to raise the bars up about 2"? I gotta check and see if someone makes some +2" risers and hopefully I won't need longer wires.

If I remember correctly, the riser and bars on a 2024 cvo st combine for a 11.5" grip height. It is probably your seat if you are vertically challenged.

I'm not really vertically challenged @ 5'11". I just want my bars up higher.
