Congrats on you purchase.I have over 7500 miles on mine,and she purrs like a Tiger. I have had a few things on it go souht o,but nothiong I couldn't work out.I posted them in the past on this thread. as for the stand still yeah..it is that time of the year..some folks have so much bad weather,can't ride. i can though, I did not the last couple days, a bit too fridged fro me but I will tomorrow. keep us posted on any mods you do, we all like this ride, and anything you dao could be an interesting idea fo any of us.I will be looking into a set of extra fog/headlamps after christam, as I want more light out front.I am also gonna get some of the led's to put around the motor for night riding. Next is a new tail light,I really do not like the stock light, and I removed the turn signals to mount a bracket for my bags, so i need to get a tail light that has both and the plate light. Happy riding when you can.
