Most everyone I ride with I met on the forums and the competition is pretty stiff. There are a lot of nice bikes. Mine really blends into the background if you can believe that. Yeah, my bike is the dinosaur of the group and is not nearly as nice as some. I consider myself lucky to ride with people who have such nice bikes. Drew
my bike is definitely the most modded and IMO the nicest looking in my regular group. There are a lot of nice harleys in North Texas so there are many nicer bikes. I went riding with a forum member recently, Fireman1501, and his ride is sweet, so mine's not always the nicest of the group.
People tell me mine is immaculate but when I see someone elses i am like damn thats nice. I guess when its our own scoots we look at them differently. I see mine and I see a work in progress when I look at someone elses I am like oooooo aaaaaaaa
When you installed that nacelle kit did u have to change your windshield or do u even ride with one?
I tried riding without one and I feel im gonna get blown off the back so I prefer to ride with one.
I do ride with mine on the long hauls in cold weather....I did have to cut my WS a little bit. I used a jig saw and then a drum sander to smooth the cut out. And they do make one that does work with the nacelle, just don't have the part number handy. Here is the instruction sheet:
Thanks Silver and AR.... I really do owe alot to members of this forum for the results of my bike. This is the best bunch of people a guy could ask for!
this forum definitely lets me see what others have thought up, done, and get to make up my mind what I would like to do to my bike.
This forum allows us to benefit from the diversity of tastes and geographically localized trends, pick and choose what we prefer and import the look/ideas into our own garages, often ending up very different from what others ride in our area.
Dust... I think you're right this place helps us stay up on the different trends and innovative ideas. But I think that person who said your would stick out in any crowd is right.
