Default Done finally!! For this riding season!

Well, got the sporty wrapped up today. All the winter changes are done. Ready to get in the wind on the sporty. Splitting time on the King also. I really love how she runs and handles. Put the progressive monotubes on. Rebuilt the front end. Road King shocks. Tank lift and coil/ignition done. New paint. New whitewalls. New brakes. New cubby 12's, 3 inch risers,internal wiring. New cables,lines. New 42 HSR Mikuni. Know I'm forgetting a few things.

Know what you mean. This afternoon I was making a list of engine mods for next winter. Probably going to owe Hammer a fortune!

Looks cool, few using the turtle tank like that, but that stock seat? A good seat will be as much improvement as the new shocks for comfort and look better too.
