YZEtc Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Rode it 86 miles on a good-feeling sporty ride with 55 degree weather, which was a major improvement over the past week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hippiebikerchick Posted November 24, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 24, 2014 Would you recommend those even with the high price? I wanted these from the minute I saw them. So, yes I recommend them because I love the streetfighter look. Illegitimi non carborundum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, yes I recommend them because I love the streetfighter look. Agreed. Its just a lot of money. I feel they don't need to charge that much for things like that..

Premium Member motomeek Posted November 25, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 25, 2014 Thank you for the review, That is my favorite screen so far. Could you post a link where you bought it?Revzilla.comI went on Revzilla right after you posted that pic, they're out of stock…. But this is definitely going on my "Christmas List." Hope it's back in stock by then! 1 Instagram: @meekmade | You don't need to flat foot a bike to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdry67 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Adjusted throttle cable slack and removed front fork reflectors. 10 minutes made a big difference to the feel and look of the bike. Only picked it up on Saturday so it's early days yet. Amazing bike so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryv Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Washed it, turn my back and it fell, fortunately on soft ground .. got muddy brake lever, throttle, EOS frame slider, pegs, and mirror. So .. washed it again. Got dark by then but think there may be zero damage. How you might ask? I propped the sidestand up on a brick, thought it was fairly level but must have been a bit off to the right. Big mistake was leaving it in neutral .. lesson learned. Tomorrow will be nice enough to commmute, then wednesday possibly snow/mix 1-6 inches ... grrrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefano225 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Got my recall done today ,temperature was in the 50's not too bad I guess.I took the seat off to see what was done and end up placing a cover on intake for winter storage after reading about mice storing food in there . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hobbs Posted November 26, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 26, 2014 Fortunately all that happened was the mirror got a few nicks and the frame slider as well. Soggy gravel driveway ftw. Everything went braap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hippiebikerchick Posted November 28, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 28, 2014 Rode about 100 miles through redwood forests with a moto group then dinner at Harrys Hofbrau with my moto family.

Guest August BB Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Changed my oil just now to get ready for winter storage. Surprised how dark it is with only 410 miles on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qjohnson Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Changed my oil just now to get ready for winter storage. Surprised how dark it is with only 410 miles on it. My first two oil changes were really dark after a short amount of time also. I switched to synthetic mobile one and there's about 1000 miles on it so far and the oil is only a shade darker than what it was new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassecou Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Well, where do I start. Before or after going for a LONG ride? OK, before the ride, I installed my Gorilla alarm I am carrying from bike to bike, so if you are looking at the model number, its probably not being made anymore, but it still works great. http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1061_zps6266b6c7.jpg Then, after the ride, I made a radiator guard out of a screen I found at Lowes this morning, $25. http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1063_zps04de200f.jpghttp://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1071_zps68d35b9d.jpghttp://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1072_zps588eeb19.jpg After checking the fit, outstanding , I decided to painted it black http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1073_zpsb8ac6b39.jpg Final cuts on both side for another outstanding fit (rofl) http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1074_zps30307d57.jpg And here is what my 2 hours of very hard work (rofl) look like http://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1075_zps9ed6c0ed.jpghttp://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1077_zps14cec306.jpghttp://i1370.photobucket.com/albums/ag272/arnau11/IMG_1076_zps012ffe9f.jpg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member crazycracka501 Posted November 30, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 30, 2014 Replaced my snorkle back in the air box. She didn't respond as well without it. Then rode from Palm Springs to Lake Arrowhead and back. Great ride! http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f118/guerro501/IMG_0525_zps5162d8db.jpg 2 Make it stop!....Now make it go faster!

YZEtc Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I rode it for a 68-mile sporty ride, dodging the sand here and there from a little bit of snow a few days back. Got lucky with another nice Sunday and 54-degree temperature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
