Installed some Gen2 handlebars. What a nice difference.

Thanks again, Andy!

Told Ya. Takes some doing to keep weight off the bars but cool once you get used to it. Did you have to shorten cables ?

CrazyBiker · 07-24-2009, 05:46 PM

Installed the new style integrated taillight from ebay. Like it. Turn signal lights could be a little brighter though. Still better than Clear Alternatives.

The cables are fine, although I need to rotate the banjos on the master cylinder a little to get the lever where I want it. I rode her around the neighborhood and the change feels good. I'm going to go for a real test ride tomorrow.

I just spent the last two hours installing a Targa fender eliminator. I likey.

CrazyBiker · 07-29-2009, 11:16 PM

I have the Targa FE too but I swapped in dual filament arrow turn signals. One filament comes on with the brakes.

Just installed LED rear indicators and Fender eliminator.

S.Ga.Rider · 07-30-2009, 04:48 AM
