Looks great AJ! I never would've though of cutting those ends off like that but when I pull mine apart I'll have to do that so thanks for that idea...another reason I love this thread.

What risers are those and are they taller than stock? I wanna add another inch or two but not sure what length the stockers are.

Roland Sands 3" risers

They add a little more height. And reduce the weight by a couple of pounds.

I took the stock ones off and holy hell!!! Those bastards are friggin heavy!!!!!

How long did you use them? Stock baffles still in? any scratches (I assume not, since you take pride in your bike)? Price?? I'm not sure I have the funds available, but if it's too good to pass up, I might have to find a way.
PM on it's way

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude....Your scoot is one of the reasons I got a Lo....

Is there anything we can do to help you keep it?

Maybe a Calling all Lo owners fund raiser????

If that isn't going to do it see what you can get for it private party.

You know the dealer wont care about all those bad A$$ mods.

If you aren't getting any offers maybe start parting out your good stuff and throw some stock stuff back on?

I know I'll buy

the seat, forward controls, swing arm bag, grips and levers, derby cover...Jesus....If it were 2 months ago I'd buy the bike!!!!!

Seriously man...Anything I can do to help?

Shoot me a PM brother!

not to offend you or anything, but i'm sure you're well aware that you won't get nearly half as much back on add-ons as you've put into it.. sucks that you have to get rid of it at all, but if you change your mind down the road..the 2012's are getting a 103" stock :-D . anyways... people are more concerned with how many miles you have on it, and what problems you've had that may re-occur.. if it listed at $16.5k new, with all the mods and everything, I'd ask a minimum of $16k, depending on how many miles you have on it.. because it's still a relatively new bike. keyword, relatively

Return it to stock and get some return on those mods. You won't get much more for them is you sell it as is. Just my opinion. The mods should be easy to sell. You should be able to collect $1500 or more on the mods and then sell the bike for $15k, if a sale is inevitable. If you don't have the stock stuff, just get it from the buyer as part of a deal. Good luck.

Wow Man, thank you so much... People like you restore my faith in humanity, seriously, we need more people like you in the world...

Thanks so much for the offer, but it's not that bad. and i would first get three jobs at McDonalds before i took some one else's hard earned cash.
Thank you again i really appreciate it.

i can kind of cope with the cost, it's just an Expenses Vs Reward and Priorities type of things and it looks like its just going to get worse. Family first type of thing you know...

Sgt Jim, no harm, i know about the mods not worth the money...
im trying to find out if i can get out of it without being upside down on the loan, thats all.

Understood man.... My family comes first. That's why it took 3 damn days to install some apes....Kid/Wife= #1

Dont know if this is the appropriate time to ask but how is that seat vs. the stock one? I sit so far back on the stock seat the screws dig into my a$$/back
