Tho shall not ask us for a tally of our chrome & bits!
Do not beseech us to shed tears upon the dollars of mods for which we shall never have returned to us.
A sumping pox upon you and yours sir!

When I picked up my new RGS last August, I set a budget of $1,000.00 in mods. No engine mods, just slip-ons and intake, and ride it. I was not gonna get carried away like I did with my SG. 3 weeks later, I was $1,200 over budget and I am nowhere near done.

Love them and 13" much better than their 12" which I had initially. They are particular regarding weight as they are much more comfortable with missy aboard and I have not adjusted for when her 112 pounds isn't with me.
