I'm not sure of the make (they were on when I bought the bike used) but they are 14's and I love them for longer distances. Quite comfortable.

I thought about doing the black pearl that is also on there but in the end I thought the Fire Red would look better.

I'm at week 3 since mine was ordered. They said about 5 to 6 weeks. How long did it take to get it from the factory from time ordered?

Mine was right at 5 weeks but that also includes Christmas and New Years which I assume delayed it a bit. I would expect yours in about 5 weeks max.

Looks great! My dealer scratched the inner fairing on my soon to be delivered '12 RG Custom while installing my Boom Audio upgrade :-/

...so they are ordering a painted one from the factory. I just have to pay the $320 difference! I'm saving huge on the labor since I'll pay none!!
