Just finished my last upgrades....all I plan on now is a Sargent seat and maybe some rearsets eventually.

Most of the mods I did are relatively stealthy....I like the idea of a subdued, classy, yet beastly bike.  The last touches were the Rizoma mirrors, bar-end blinkers, and black braided lines and rizoma reservoirs all the way round.  Definitely cleaned up the bar area.



Rode it to Santa Monica and I had to take a pic...it was at that pretty magic hour a bit before sundown.

Love this bike.

Nope, I think you have to black out the calipers, rear sets and triples. But if you decide not to, you still have one gorgeous bike. bow down drool

I added "just about" to give me some wiggle room.  I ain't no fool!

I actually traded for the boomtubes....I think they are the slash cut.  I'm happy with them overall, but if my bike had less power I might have been driven more by a desire for a power boost in my exhaust decision.  But for me they're perfect.

Thanks for the comments!

I've seen belly pans look good, but I'm more inclined to remove everything I can, rather than adding.  Addition via subtraction, if you will.
