    At least she's got two wheels on the brain instead of four!


    And Gardo, I'm having trouble picturing you as an office drone, dude.


    Good to know you're in there subverting those nice boring office workers with moto infection.

    So i posted in ride prep but no response. I will be riding down to Daytona FL on my Widow in 11 days. getting the Widow ready for the trip. Looking at a 3000 miles, 4870km, round trip I am anticipating a 25hr ride one way which I am hoping to break up in 2 days. Thinking i may try out the Saddle Sore Cert for the ride.
    Will be videoing the entire ride and posting while on the road to my FB group or website www.ccwthariders.com

    Here's the map

    Hey guys,

    Finally picked up my Heist last Saturday and I must say I'm thrilled. I've only had the chance to ride it three times since the weather here in SE PA has been chilly at best. I don't know if anyone shares my feelings on the stock turn signals and mirrors, but I just HAD to get rid of them. I really didn't like the el-cheapo chromed plastic mirrors, and the previous owner of this bike must have dropped it at some point because both of the right side turn signal stalks were cracked. I assume these were supposed to have some flex in them, but the rear one was barely holding on. I found a guy on eBay who sells Chinese parts out of California and I decided to go for it.
    For less than 50$ shipped I got a set of nice plain round mirrors and 4 new "mini" turn signals. I've got some pictures here if you want to take a look (sorry about the quality, my only camera is on my phone)

    I've got some other plans for the bike, but I had a question about exhausts. Is there anything preventing me from just lopping off the exhaust where the pipe starts to flare for the muffler? I really want to get the kick start working, but at the moment I can't afford to get a new set of pipes that will clear it. Anyone have any suggestions?

    NBowen, good to see that you have the bike i like the turn signals, the new mirrors remind me of the tha Misfit mirrors. I usually scour ebay for parts since most metric parts will fit the Heist. I founds tons of stuff on the cheap.

    As for the stock muffler there is a cat right at the part were the exhaust flairs. for a nice sound I would chop the last 6" off the back of the pipe just like this


    Will need to rejet the carb once thats done. I swapped out all my lights and did some upgrades
    Here she was in June


    and this is what she has evolved too
