I did not use my stock rotors, I put polished stainless rotors on.
Cool, thanks. Where did you get the fender relocation brackets?

Flipped the mirrors around today, and I like it! I can see perfectly and it makes the front end of the bike look cleaner

Not today but I added a LaPera Monterey Solo seat with back rest. Also lowered the rear with Tamarak 1" lowering bracket.

Got the front forks off. Need to pick up a couple tools and wait for the special tools from Howard. Then it'll be Ohlins time!
