Default Mod's & Miles....
Did some mods right before doing a 350 mile ride from OC up to Mammoth in the Eastern Sierra's.
Mod's
13" Ultra shocks with a 1 3/4" lowering block. Love these things! So happy I did it before my ride. I had 20 lbs in them for 100 miles. Let the air out. Oh boy what a differance that made! The air is good for short rides though.
Took apart rear turn sig's...shortened how far they stick out by attatching them to my sissy bar dock. While i had them apart, I got rid of the plastic pieces with reflectors.
Relocated the license plate.
Forwards.
Painted the pully cover with HD engine paint.
Moved the front turn sig's.

The OC to Mammoth sounds like a good ride to me. I am still trying to get ot the 300 mile mark. Pics would be great to see.
