Default Finally Done (well, almost)

Finally got around to putting on the new bars, pipes and mufflers last week. Weather turned to crap so no long distance yet. Went with 10" Yaffee Monkey Bars, V&H Power Duals, and Screamin' Eagle Fatshotz. The sound is just about perfect, just a little louder than stock. I have MUCH louder on my other bikes but this one is perfect as far as I'm concerned. I have my Fualmoto AC to go on but don't want to do it until I get an appointment for a dyno. It's a Limited but made the Tour Pak detachable.

Nice lookin' motorcycle and great choices for the modifications.

By the way, what kind of seat is that?? The rider part of the seat looks extra deep.

Nice mods, I wish I had those bars.

Here let me help:


That seat looks huge with the Tour Pak off.

Thanks guys. Yeah, you're never REALLY done. I put things on my '86 and '05 right up to the week I sold them. One-up, that was done by a local guy, Rich's Custom Seats. That was the 4th seat he's done for us (2 on wife's bikes and 2 on mine). You can ride all day with no problem. Anytime my wife can ride for 12 hours straight (except for gas), not complain, and get up at 7 and start all over.... got to be comfortable. Getting it fit and made is an 8 hour deal, he fits it, you ride, re-fits it, you ride. When you're happy, he's done. The brown insert matches the paint perfect.
