Not sure of the USA but here in the great white North..Canada, removing your reflectors may give the insurance company something to (Bail their ***) reflect upon paying out your claim or NOT. I keep mine on for that reason(They even look at un-reported pipes, FI, AC-Stage 1=Increased HP). Just an FYI. Also...Use gas to remove gooo, use it on a rag and quickly rub with water after goo has disappeared. Gas, she take everything you don't want on!! or Goo B Gone, which I add to my Weed kill=Acidic additive to break through the waxy leaf weeds(Nice deep penetration of Chemical) ;-) Wink!!..Sorry for off Topics.....Blame....Beer!!!!

Have you had it in on a windy road yet? If so how did it do with that big rear tire?

Good looking bike. I am also interested in the LED signals and possibly the 3rd break light. Can you post part number and where you got it from please? Thanks.
