So I got my CRG arrows and bar end adapters put on today.  Ordered them from Jeff at Monsterparts.com (awesome guy to do business with).  These things change the entire look of the front end.  I love these things.  Best part is that they fold up in tight spaces.  That door you see in the pics is the entry door to the "bike garage".  It is only 42" wide so every inch counts.  So i wanted to post some pics and see what you guys thought.  Then i could not stop taking pics of this beauty.   Grin  I haven't really done too much else to it yet (swapped the bikini fairing, pulled passenger pegs, atomic tail kit).  Slowly but surely.  CRG levers, Rizoma reservoirs and Barracuda "quadra" turn signals are next.  Still waiting on my Carbon Termis from the dealer.

Last 3 pics are just me messing around with some editing....let me know what you guys think!!

Thank you sir!  I am really happy with how it is coming together so far.  I was wondering, how do you take the headlight assembly off?  I want to shorten the front blinkers to tide me over until i can get the smaller leds.  Is it pretty simple?

Now you just have to sit on your hands and stare at that ugly box of an exhaust until the new stuff gets here!  What exhaust did you decide on?

I went with the carbon fiber Termignoni exhaust with the ECU and filter.  I ordered it from the dealer to have it rolled into my payments.  They sold me on it because they threw in the install labor, tune, and 600 mile service.  Can't wait till I can friggin ride to get 600 miles on my baby.  (Michigan weather sucks big time).

It will be interesting to see how the Termi's look.  I thought them a bit bulkier than the Zards and in California the Dealers no longer sell or install Termi..... Gotta love California.

Have you thought about putting a smaller brake reservoir?   I will be putting a clutch reservoir on the brake side to match the left clutch.   The smaller cup is only an issue when it comes time to bleed it.   When I do bleed mine, I just plan to use the normal one in it's place only for bleeding.   It helps to remove some of the "bulkiness" on the right side.   Just an idea to throw at ya.

Going OEM on mine.   I see you are doing Rizomas.   Post a pic when done (on your own thread, of course).

 Buy online, or out of state and save money in the process.

 B.S. laws with loopholes, if the dealer has an e-store they can sell you an exhaust, pro Italia and others sell this way. I bought my full Termignoni system from a dealership in Kansas for cheap. Installing the exhausts on the new bikes is simple.

I will be doing the Rizoma "NEXT" small reservoirs in anodized black on both sides eventually.  You read my mind!

You ARE smitten with your machine!  Enough photos already.  Roll Eyes

And those are nice mirrors. Add cans, ECU, etc. and you won't even need a girlfriend this summer.

For that response, I should add more photos. Smiley

My fiancĂ© rides too so after the termis, ECU and filter get here, she will still be around.  Lucky me.

Same mirrors I have.  I LOVE them.  When I first received them I thought they'd be too small to work effectively, but that's definitely not the case.  Lots of adjustability, great view, and they look very cool.  Nice.   waytogo
