    I'd be home in massillon by 5 assuming I don't have to work over.

    Probably after work I will.
  3. Or an 03 bandit 1200? Guaranteed to spank this kaw for less than half the price. 75%.....
  4. Ended up going with these in reflective blue from shine graffix. Motoinkz never answered my email asking about reflectivity. If I could have found a company that didn't intentionally misspell their name, I would have chosen them on that merit alone.
  5. Thread derailing..... [|||||||||||||..............] 40% complete Nice bike, great all arounder, glws
  6. Literally zero info on their site. I emailed them to ask. If no reply I'll go with these: http://shine-graffix.com/product-category/motorcycle-wheel-stripes/
  7. I'll look into that. So far I've only needed storage for my lunch commuting to work but it would be nice to have more than the tiny compartment under the back seat for storage for things like a flashlight, extra shirt, visor etc.
  8. The tank lock is a neat system, I just cant get past how it looks. I may just get the cortech sport saddle bags....the back seat isn't really big enough to hold a tail bag large enough for my needs that doesn't look like a big brick.
  9. Mounted the koso blinkers on the front. So much better looking than stock it way more visible than flush mounts. Bright as fuck too. Triple tree stand came yesterday, so put that together and played with it. Contemplating ordering some reflective tape for the wheels to make them pop a bit and keep with the blue and black theme. Any recommendation? I've used yakuza before but they peel off and I don't like that they're in 4 pieces per side. Revzilla has some rim striping tape with decent reviews, anyone tried it? Also contemplating luggage options. I doubt I'll use the bike for any serious overnight touring, just need something to keep odds and ends in and my lunch for work...that doesn't look horrible. Tried my tank bag on it but was not happy with what it did to the paint. Open to suggestions there. As soon as I have help I can set my sag. I don't wanna screw with any settings till that's done. Also considering a saddleman seat. Stock unit gets uncomfortable after an hour or so. Could have sworn the blinker was lit when I snapped this.
  10. Ok, I'd ride this. All 1200 lbs of it. https://www.revzilla.com/common-tread/a-cruiser-fit-for-a-russian-strongman?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=boosted-posts|tpfn&utm_content=common-tread-news&utm_term=a-cruiser-fit-for-a-russian-strongman-053018-|tpfn
  11. Yeah, my buddy isnt ready for that. Looks like we're taking 62 back up, thanks for the heads up.
  12. Leaving my house in massillon to hit amish country with a buddy at around 10am tomorrow. Anyone is welcome to join. My buddy is a 2nd year rider on a 250 so pace will be....sensible. post up or text 330.338.9708. Route will be orville rd to 94 s to 241 s to 39w to 83 n to church st to wooster rd or something close to that.
  13. I refer you to my previous comment. Speakers work better when they're pointed at your ears. Doing the reverse will not improve things.
  14. I actually may ride tomorrow, not sure where. I'm down to meet up.
  15. I'll be your friend if you get your bike out and ride with me once in a damn while.
  16. Could be a number of reasons; ventilation and weight reduction being the most likely. Can you name me any audio system except subwoofers (bass is non-directional) where the speaker is pointed in the opposite direction of the listener or pushed directly against a surface made of sound-deadening material for greater listening enjoyment? No, you can't because sound waves move through the air most efficiently when there isn't anything in the way. You can take my word for it, or you can flip your speakers around and listen to the dulcet tones of freddy mercury as he sings bohemian rhapsody into a pillow.
  17. Sorry this happened to you. Family and friends are usually the first to fuck you over, mainly because they think they can get away with it.
  18. Finally got an LED flasher unit that works so no more quick blinky. Ordered another set of koso signals for the front along with some adapter plates to fill the hole in the fairing and bring the signals out a bit. Should be here weds. Ripped around a little this morning running errands.
  19. Contact a local rescue and see if they will help foster and rehome her. Best way to go.
  20. Careful with that joke, it's an antique....just like you....well I take that back, antique implies value. You're just old.
  21. That won't work on any planet, let alone this one.
