Thanks again all.

As promised, here is a pic of the bike. So far I have done:

- Arlen Ness fairing
- HD low profile gas gauge and cap
- LePera Bare Bones seat
- Replaced the cowbell with a black skull looking thing that I thought looked neato
- Raised the preload in the rear as a bandaid for a little more ground clearance until I can swap the shocks

Still waiting on my tbars, but they should be here in a week or so. I also have a black primary cover but I am just going to let the dealer put it on when I go in for my 1k since they pull the cover anyway and I have no way to keep the bike upright while I swap it (I hate oil messes...).

I bought most of this stuff with the $500 gift card I won during the bike deal so now that I don't have free money to spend the rest will happen slowly. The future holds upgraded suspension F&R, exhaust/air/programmer, and eventually a full rear fender. Engine work in a couple of years...
