I blew the mouse fetuses out of the V&H pipes, so I'm getting about 75 out of her. I'd like to lose another 15 mph or so, and I'll be right where I'm happy.
I forgot to mention, I got a brand new stock seat on ebay for $125. Mine had a big gash melted in it. What happened to it, I'll never know, but it was nasty. It made a big diff in "newing up" the bike.
Weight change=neutral (unless there's a difference in unburned plastic vs. non-burned plastic.)

Scott, don't you have back problems? That seat will be the death of you. I'd rather sit on concrete. Check out Mustangs (my preference for you bike) or Corbin.

Bikes been down for over a week now and seeing the sun out makes we want to ride something kind of bad.

Anybody get/getting some new accessories for the season?

I've been out 6 or 8 times between the raindrops.
I got some new gas, and I got some new really heavy thread to sew up my trunk bag. It got all ripped up cause I've been too lazy to cut out a hunk of wood and bolt it to the inside bottom so it'll quit crumpling up on me.
I have been wanting to get one of those front fender chrome double rail deals. I'll just wait till I have time to put it on. If I can't fix my saddlebag, I probably won't bolt on chrome either, right?

This thing is what I'm talking aboot...
