when it's all done, it will look like this. Then you get to sell it for a huge loss and start all over again.

I don't think the ironsides inserts will fit in your stock floorboards.

LOL, that's funny! What does he fly? I did all my training in a cesna 172. purchased and sold a 1/4 share in a 177. I have just about 500 hrs in. I Have a whopping 3 hrs in a 310 twin engine, and took the instrument class at the college last year. I love to fly, just no time and with the family(3 boys all under 6), the band, Golf, and now Harley Davidsons...

I dig it. Suede blue/Vivid Black was on my short list...actually it was my first choice, but the wife liked the Fire Red Pearl/Black Pearl, so you see what I brought home. Congrats, man!

Best accessory you can add to a touring bike? Rider's Adjustable Backrest!

Nice choice! I have always loved red, and the black pearl is the SH*T! The wife picked the suede blue/vivid black. I was partial to the all vivid black(that cool tux look with the white walls), and the olive pearl/vivid black... and you see what I too came home with...lol My *** is short, so I will need pull back risers for the bars before I can make use of the rider back rest... I can not lean back enough and still reach the bars...lol
