Now the question in direction of the originator: Which kind, brand or type of crash bar is that? Thanks

Default Had to install a derby cover

...because I never cared much for the chrome stocker and the 114 doesn’t make any sense with the 122 kit I just had installed. I also put the first 65 break-in miles on the new kit.

I received FOBO tpms as a Christmas gift. The install was simply replacing the valve caps and pairing them with your phone. I really like them. I can connect to them from anywhere in my house with the bike in the garage. They seem fairly accurate.

Fobo works great, have them for years on all my bikes, 5 at the moment, because the Street Bob and Hugger valves are not suited for them. But I must admit that the ones mounted on my quad are Chinese copy's from only
$22 for 4 pcs and also works great just the app does not support multiple bikes and the one from Fobo does..

Perhaps ask 'monkey boy' to track them down for you.

There appear to be people on ebay, buying these from a dealer then sticking them on ebay and asking outrageous prices for them, just so you know. Don't bother with the adaptor plates either. I thought the adaptors would be easy to shape and the badge would be tricky. It turned out that it's impossible to do compound curves with the adaptors, but no problem with the badges themselves. Plus the fit of the badges to the adaptors is pretty crap as well.
Awesome info, thanks!

Default Frank, I like your setup!

Right side in close. My Wolo horn and pasenger foot boards went back on with no problem.

I think they look good and wil be very useful the next time I set the bike on its side during PLP. I'll have something to grab onto when picking it up.
Whose bags are those, please?
