Had a problem last night posting kept disappearing. hope this one is Ok.

Another shot of the Footpeg and Pipe, The silver bolt U see is the origonal position&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;of the footpeg brackets.
To undo the origonal&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;bracket you need to remove the footpegs and they are attached with a pin and c-clip.
Buy a few from the dealer as they are cheap&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;but a real pain in the A$$ to put the old ones&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;back&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;on as you need to straighten them and they are not as pliable after that. Used the origonals a couple&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;of times but after buying new ones next time I did was a breeze.

 

Thanx a bunch Blackdragon, that is exactly what I was looking for.&nbsp\\; Not good news about moving the pegs, but the more I look at closeup pics of that pipe the more I want one.&nbsp\\; Awesome.&nbsp\\; Ride safe.

 

here's a LePera solo on my '98.

Damn BlackDragon, that's about the cleanest looking bike I have ever seen. When do you&nbsp\\; have time to ride it with all the cleaning and polishing you do to keep it like that?

 

First post ! Lets see what happens ??

 

Thanks Citoriplus
I thought it was a bit dirty when I was taking the pics. LOL
I spend up to 2 days giving it a full detail wash and clean every 6 months or so and just a normal tub and quick once over in between.
&nbsp\\;
Probally comes from when i use to spend 2 days polishing or the alloy on the motor and rims of my 78 SS Desmo Ducati.
&nbsp\\;
My riding season is basically or year round. We have pretty mild winters. It is middle of winter now and our avarage temp is between 10celcius and 25celcius. I wear gloves with fingers for about a month in winer if I am riding early in the morning and a leather jackest. sometimes I may wear a jumpper under the jacket but then U have to do something with later in the day cause U don't need it any more.
&nbsp\\;
Snowmass.
U will enjoy the Pipe. I love the look and the sound.

 

black dragon between 10 and 25c in the middle of winter. over here in england thats a good summers day.&nbsp\\;then theirs the rain. thats my rant over. great looking bike by the way.

 

10 15C, what the hell is that in real numbers?
Winters around here you DO NOT ride in. Too much snow and ice for that kind of idiocy.
About all its good for is pulling the bike apart for "Winter Mods", cause you know its not going to be riding weather for a while, and you won't be upset that the bike is unridable anyway.

 

10c is around 50f
25c is around 77f
&nbsp\\;
It sometimes gets a few degres colder if the wind is blown up from the south.
Out west it gets down to 0-2c (32-36f) but still 15c (59f) and up during the day.
&nbsp\\;
Down south is colder but there is only a few places that get snow.
I have never seen snow. Have ridded through some sleet for a couple of hundered km. Thats about as close as I have gotten.
&nbsp\\;
My son has just gone on a trip to the snow for a week with his school. Its a school break at present. The bus left 1:30pm sat&nbsp\\;and got there&nbsp\\;Just after 9am today sun.
&nbsp\\;
When I was up the top of Qld a few years ago now on leave, During middle of winter we were sleeping in a friends house . 2 storey as most houses are and the bottom half is living area as is cooler. we were on a tile floor with air vent holes around the entire house and U slept in a pair of shorts and usually threw your sleeping bag off sometime during the night.
&nbsp\\;
I have friends who live up their in Cairns and when they come down to Brisabne they buy jumpers cause they usually don't own any. One friend said if it gets below 19c (66f)&nbsp\\;he starts looking for a jumper.lol.
&nbsp\\;
Should be fine all this week as I am doing early start hopefully will be able to ride each day. &nbsp\\;
