Bloody hell, harty, 289 Euro??? See Harley, take the **** with price, seems to be the name of the game.

I'm not up for covers myself, but what have you done to stop them rattling?

This thread is almost useless now.. Too much conversation. Is there a way to index it to be more useful?

I don't like how far the stock bars are forward, and adding a little bit of height would be pretty useful for comfort, I just don't really know what direction to take this as of yet.
i just fitted these trask v-line moto bars on mine ...havent hooked up cables,brake lines,etc yet but this may give you an idea of what they will look like,i just wanted something with alittle raise and more pull back,utilizing stock clamp configuration...

Default Primo Rivera headlight - extra baling required.

Does anyone happen to have the part number/s for the 2 cables that are required when installing the Primo Rivera please?

I'd still like to "see" a shoot out between the PR and a Daymaker...

Use the back of a spark plug socket, and put an extension in the wrong side.

Been that way for a while. Honestly, the forum I setup is much better as it is all about Breakouts and broken down by category. But not many people use it.

Not sure if I can post it, but if the mods don't allow it I'm sure they will remove it.

I have nothing to gain as it is a completely free forum, and I get nothing from it. Just nice to have a more organized place to store info about our specific bikes.
