Default 2013 Winter Mods.

WTF am I thinking winter mods when summer isn't even over:P Well I am out of town working again and have lots of time to think...including winter mods....plus our winters come fast in Canada.

Once again time to gob gob over ideas. For meh Lo...

1. Black out forks, tank caps, rear taillight base
2. Stretched Low Profile Dash (Hopefully RWD gets one ready this fall)
3. Seat...what to do about the seat? Hopefully this time I don't order a big pillow like I did with Lepera's Sanora last winter.
4. New Tach
5. Finish black diamond series for floorboards and pads.
6. LED lights...Panheadrich's find probably.
7. And whatever else comes into mind.

Good news for me this round....this winter will be a lot cheaper than last haha.

So folks don't get mad at me asking for your winter mod ideas at this time of the year What's your plan?

Cheers.

Gotta get it serviced for a bad fork seal (which they said is covered under warranty) and when they do that I'll probably add intimidators.

That's about it

Ya me 2 ha. Actually holding off this winter. I get props in real all the time about the wheels...funny how 'real' keeps things in perspective. 2 easy to fall into the Hd forums trap:P But but but...I still have the Billet Daddys in mind...next winter I am thinking about doing new paints w/ pinstriping. In turn the wheels may be brought in to tie in color and match. Long ways away. For now my focus is to finish the bike off with the concept I adopted for now.
