It's finally getting there, never complete though. Looking forward to more performance mod's as soon as the wallet get's a little thicker. I will try to get more photo's up to show some more of the bike. For the guy's in the area we should definitely get together and ride sometime. Even if your not in the area come on down. Or up, which ever the case may be. I just enjoy the thrill of the ride as well as the relaxation.

Hey that looks great! And you're probably the first person I've seen with a corbin seat that got the solo cover to fit properly. When I had one (actually I've had two and they both did it) I trimmed the rubber bumpers on the seat bottom down to get the back of the seat to sit lower-did you?

Yes, I did have to trim the bumpers quite a bit. Several attempts with the dremel to get as close as I could. I also mod'd the latch bar to get it to sit the way I wanted it to. A little heat and pressure works wonders. As long as you let it cool on it's own.

Nice job, man. I love the subtle details (mirrors, heel guards), they really make the whole thing pop! Where did you get the yellow "VTR" decals?

No to the protectant, but did add grip tape.....

As for the stickers it was just the luck of the roll.....

Yeah, I was kinda wondering what the textured stuff was. I guess it makes the whole seat look shinier than it really is.

Suuuure it was luck....
