Default Before and After pics '02 RKC

Picked up an '02 RKC a month back or so for my wife. Was extremely clean, had SERT, exhaust and a few dyno sheets to go with it but the cam chain tensioners worried me. Checked them out and they could have made it another 20k I think but it would always worry me. Said screw it, weather is still iffy and ordered the Hydraulic kit. Also scrounged up the parts for hard bags and ordered a C&C seat. Had the rear fender, sides and bags painted so the color would at least match somewhat. Pearl is a BIT$$ to match.

Turned out good. It's perfect in the sunlight, you can tell a difference under flourescent light though.

Installing a set of Heritage bars to get the bars a bit closer tonight and replacing the floorboards with pegs. Her calves hit them now.

Looks terrific, my suggestion would be not to ride for long periods of time under fluorescent lights.
