It has been a minute since I have checked out this thread, I am looking forward to digging back thru the 60 pages to see the new stuff and refresh my memory on the stuff I have already seen.

I am wondering if anyone has done a right up on how to go about removing the tri-light at the bottom of the fender, I think the rear looks really good with it removed.

theres no need. Six bolts and two plugs for the trilight. Stash the connectors wherever you want on the bike or chop em off your choice. Run filler lights and be done

You've single handedly destroyed the 'dirty biker' image with that photo. Even your garage door hardware is beautifully powder coated black.

Anyone that has the Ohlins rear 13" shocks, do they raise the seat height up much? Want to do this setup in the rear but dont want to be tip toeing. I am 5' 8". Almost flat footed with stock suspension and seat.
