Nice bike, epleeds.
What did you use to refinish the bottom of the forks?

Every time I see this bike I wish I had the extra dough to pick it up.

Why do you keep reposting this instead of editing the other 5 threads you made for it?

no idea. they came on the bike from the previous owner. they are just some ovals with a hole cut in the rear fairing so they can sit flush. nothing fancy that im aware of.

The Clear Alternatives doesn't have built in turn signals? Or are you just looking to add more visibility?

I think that you can get that rear light set up at Dennis Kirk online

I have put some miles on it, but with 3 kids and life, just don't have time to ride it as much. I want to keep it, but i could use the money for other things. Do you think I would buy it, ship it from cali just to sell it.

I would rather keep it, but the wife says, if i want to do other things, i need to sell something first.

you interested?

Bottom Dolla?

I'm new to this forum from South Florida. I have a 99' & 98' VTR with one title that I'm in the process of building, (similar to your work of art) and was wondering what you think or know what you have invested in all the custom parts on your "SSS". I would like to know what your bottom dollar is as well, Thanks, Ryder.

I bought it from Brian Light. If you do a search on this forum, you might be able to locate the old links. as for bottom dollar, i have no idea how much it cost him to do all the work.

I was just asking because I was wondering about the handling with the longer wheelbase & how it compares to a stocker, which is not exactly twitchy to beging with. Always a little suspect as to whether a major mod like this turned out solid & staight (& rideable)

I'm thinking about doing this, and also curious about handling.
I'm also curious about how the pipe has affected HP/torque/delivery. Had it dyno'd?

The ride on it is awesome. the front end doesn't lift off the ground on take off due to being about 1.5 inches longer wheelbase and about .5 to an inch lower at the seat height. I have not had it on the dyno for the numbers but it pulls like a raped ape.
