On the highway I have noticed that the front wheel doesnt move around as much in windy conditions. There are plenty of people that say the solid wheels dont get grabed by the wind but since I changed it out, it doesnt feel like the wind catches the wheel any more. So I would say that it has improved it.

Chris, thanks for the info. I'm interested in those handlebars and am 5'10", how tall are you?
I am also 6ft 1" and my arms are pretty long so if your arms are pretty long I dont think that you would have any problems, but if they arnt youll probably want some pull back risers, you might be reaching for them a little.

Beautiful, well done man. Is there any way you can relocate that inspection sticker?
I probably could some where but the Navy says its supposed to be up front on the left, I guess I could try mounting it on the lower bolt of the brake caliper that would probably make it look a little nicer.
FACTION95 and drrandall1 The seat I have on there is the Corbin young guns. The seat is really comfortable for the rider but If you plan on taking a passenger for any more than 15 min or more then youll need to keep your stock one. there is very little padding for a passenger. That being said my wife rode on the back of my bike from San Diego to Las Vegas back when she was my girlfriend and she was hateing life... so much so that she bought a plane ticket back home to San Diego instead of riding home. I cant blame her. I told her she was going to be miserable but she wanted to go any way and she paid the price. She is a trooper though.
Thanks everyone for all the positive comments the are really appreciated. I hope I answered everyones questions and if you have any more dont hesitate to ask. talk to you later.
