Default New mirrors and Sokustom leather (pics)

Rear bib isn't mounted all the way, that's why it isn't laying flat. Shaun is sending me some stuff to dye it all black. He did great work as usual, I just want to keep it simple with black I think. Next up is a RSD front fork brace.

Yes sir. The mirrors suck by the way. They look nice, but I can't see a damn thing in them. Partly because they are so low and I am so tall so it isn't the mirrors fault. Just got back from a ride and got a lot of compliments on the leather when I stopped by a shop.

I was going to ask you how you like the mirrors. I put a set of small one's on and just couldn't see well enough so I went back to the stockers. I did like how the small one's looked though.

Smart to get a generic bag. You can sell it down the line if you wanted to.

True, I love the bag it comes in real handy. The mirrors are off. I could have a cop right on my *** and never know with those mini ovals. I just like being able to see who is behind me.

If anyone wants the Ness Mini Ovals, PM me.
