Enjoy to watch my sporty from every angle except ...
Got a 2008 1200C. I really love this bike. Spend 30 minutes to wash it every the other month and 10-20 minutes to watch it from every angle after wash.
There is only one angle I do not like it. When it is on kick stand, the line from the speedometer to the top of triple tree is not smooth. See the area circled in red.
What you think? Any suggestions to improve or mod it?
Thanks any input in advanced
note: bike in this picture is not mine, grab it from internet
"I wash mine for 6 hrs 3 times a week, I spend the rest of the time staring at it. In the past 3 months I have racked up 1 whole mile just pushing it in and out of the garage."
Really dude? Ride your bike, isn't that what you bought it for? There are enough Garage Queens out there.
If you don't like your speedo mount, there are about a dozen threads on Speedo relocation in this section alone.
i have not washed my bike since I bought it, its pretty gnarly right now, but i ride the **** out of it. I have a tach and a speedo do it looks double retarded, I am thinking of removing both of them completely. You dont need a speedo.
