I like it!

Shoot me for saying this, but it reminds me a bit of a Harley V-Rod.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Yes, the freeway kick-back pegs.

I know a guy who has two Harleys and a Buell. He needs all three so he has something to ride when the other two are in the shop.

There is a LOT of stuff to get the junk caught on in the event of a seat support failure.

That's a bit more like it although I'm not too sure how a low pipe mixes with knobbies.  ;) What vintage is that engine? Does that little can have a spark arrester?  ;D

BTW, turn off the rain when you get a chance! How many inches have you had in Winschester so far? Getting stir-crazy down here... :'(

my forward mounts comment also applies directly to this.  I spent an hour and a half or so on one the other day waiting for it to play up.  I had one years ago and put some folding pegs on mine mounted low onto the crash bars, made a nice difference on the highway.
