Nice choice of backdrop! Next come back when it's making steam.  Wink Which windshield is that and how effective is it compared to stock, especially turbulence? Looking good!!!

That's the DP shield. Bit taller than stock. plus for me it mounts directly on the dash and not on the light like the original because i'm using a custom light and mount.

The train is a museum piece in front of the rail works in Kaiserslautern. Every time I've driven past it I had thought about how this would look.

New 1" longer bars, mirrors and grips. Also Ram mount for GPS on left bar.  





got tired of looking at the low end of the bar for mirrors.

Still thinking about pulling the forks through 1" and putting the clipons above the triple.

Love your bike, especially the exhaust.
Any problems with the TÜV due to your modifications?
Or don´t you have to take the technical inspection, since you are with the army (i guess).
And you license tag isn´t our regular size either....want have...

Congrats on the win ! Your bike is sick, my fav is of course the front end, the front brake master cyl. is a nice touch I imagine stoppies with one finger, not only have you built one of a kind you've helped a lot of us out with your all your posts. Hope to see it with those new wheels you mentioned.

Actually I almost picked up a set of radial brake/clutch masters from a SF. missed them by that much

thanks for the kind words.

yeah the wheels. no one makes 4.5" aftermarket rears. so sticking with stock for now. besides don't have 1800 to drop on wheels right now
