blindrocket - What are ya riding right now? Ya can always trade it in.....lol

 

Hey Greeny, doing anything to the bike over winter?

 

Cyg,

I got myself a arlen ness rear telescopic kickstand for christmas . But that wont be going on until spring. Got the bike all packed up in the corner of the garage for winter. Thinking about in spring getting the front lowers and tree powdered when taxes come back.

What about yourself? Got any Plans?

 

Be careful with that stand Green. I liked mine but between it not giving a lot of lean and scraping hard when riding two up I had to switch back.

 

Got a few things kicking around but they can wait till spring. Wanna run front fender-less to try it out, plan on doing the coil relocation with some colored plug wires and I'd like to get a set of bear trap style platform pegs. That's about it. Having the bike dyno'd will also happen.

Ya, I think i need to call mine spring mods too lol - to fcukin cold here over winter to do anything to the bike - plus I gots minimal room in my shop/shed and it's all pushed off to the side and covered up.

 

Fenderless is great - till the roads wet - then it's face wash time - not a biggie - just be prepared to deal with it. If I had an ugly stock fender I would deal with the face wash - but since I got the wrapped one I figured I may as well put it back on and avoid the stripe up my face lol

I want to go to a 3.5" rim 120 tire and i am hoping I can stil stuff it in the fender I have

 

sounds like you have some good stuff planed Jacob.

mid whats the temp been where your at?

Hey Ash, My bike is only lowered about 1.5 to 2.0. Since its not as low as yours the kickstand should give me a little more lean am I correct? Did the kickstand work better pre shotgun?

 

Yeah Green you should be fine with that but you will still have to choose your parking spots wisely. It will be the first thing to scrape on that side though. Mine caught hard a a couple of times with my wife on and almost stood my bike up in a curve. I didn't really have any issues riding solo.

 

Yeah I'm sick of that shitty front fender, it's gotta go! I thought about cutting it down so it would only be about 8 to 9 inches long, only thing is, it may sit too high off of the tire to look good. Anyone done it yet? I can't remember if someone posted about it before
