Are you just using velcro on the inside of the windshield to attach it?

magnetic tank pouch with a clear top seems to work well. Also, as long as your tags are linked to your account there shouldn’t be a problem if you forget it or the signal doesn’t get picked up (can vouch for that after having found myself unexpectedly on a toll road with the unit locked in my Jeep’s armrest console).

Yes. On the blackened portion - so it's not visible.

I have a Kuryakyn 1795 holder that works well. I put the EZ Pass stickers on the bottom of the holder and EZ Pass so it won't bounce out.

Rear

I just put on the JES lower fork fairings.. I haven't had a chance to ride it yet because of a lot of rain. Roads around here are covered in debris and we have more rain coming. :-(

Default Aftermarket “stepped” bars and gaps

I have 14” Carlinis on mine, and notice a gap between the clutch/brake assemblies and where the bar steps up to 1.25”, which is expected as the grips bottom out. What I’m noticing, though, and I *believe* I’ve heard before that the gap being a bit wider on the right side is normal/expected due to the twist grip sensor. I know if I try and force the gap down it will cause the throttle to bind and stick. Just asking if anyone else notices a bigger gap on that side (to help me keep my sanity)

thanks in advance

I have your bikes chromed out twin! Did the 14” Carlini evil apes myself. Only thing that is getting to my OCD (ie is it normal or not) is the gap between the front brake lever mount and the bar step seems bigger than the gap on the clutch side.

Sweet, check out ClearView windshield. They have reverse curve which allows a shorter windshield but you get the protection as if you have a taller windshield. They also have a GT model which is wider for added protection.
My 6’ and have the 18’’ GT with vent and curved.
