I am very much more into performance then cosmetics. My bike is not a beast but there's little else I could do it too unless I split the cases and I just don't want to or need to go there. You have a nice sled too!!!

Looking forward to the next vids from you. Enjoy your build!

Ride Safe,

Congrats! It's truly one of the greatest mods on my bike. Love the versatility of adjusting the ride height, plus dumping the air out of the system always makes me giggle. LOL

You won't regret going with Shotgun. Jessica & JD are top notch people and the system is totally worth it! If you run into any questions during install just hit me up! I will do my best to help ya!

Will do! Ordered Shotgun last night! Will give the install a go once we get out of the deep freeze here in northern Ohio.

Nice episode 6.

Apes for me but I am 6-3" tall so need a little upward mobility on my bars. Once I had Apes on a previous bike I owned for the first time, I will never be without them again. To me anyway, they are by far the most comfy riding position and they look cool too, IMO. Those knuckle bars are like mini apes.

Another example:



2013 RKC under construction with some Carlini's. These were during the mockup phase.








This is finished. Moving onto wheels in next couple weeks.

Good luck, Ride Safe!

I am loving the videos. I wish they were more detailed however I understand that you must edit for time, but great job.
