Default Installed new apes

I just finished installing new Wild 1 14” Outlaw apes, Magnum Shielding wires, and Wild 1 risers. I was somewhat intimidated doing this myself. My biggest concern was doing the wires internally, but overall the whole job went smooth. I’m very happy with the outcome.

I also did a coil relocation, and a WoLo horn upgrade from DK. I really like the opening now in front of the oil bag.

Now only if the rain and cold would get out of here I could go cruising.

Default Nice Job

Awesome work man. Scoot looks great. Nice clean look, worth the time and effort, not to mention you gave it a go yourself. 👍👍

Never know though, your bound to get at least one " Won't that effect your warranty" guy comming in to say hi. Seems like they are everywhere in these days 😂🤣😂🤣😂😁

Nice work Big Mule! I like how the outlaw apes line up with your forks. It's fun and satisfying working on your own bike.
