Bought a bike.

ncff07 · 05-23-2010, 05:13 AM

I've been poking around on this site for some time now and found alot of useful information on here and decided I should join up and did a couple days ago. Always wanted to get a bike and finally did last month. I found a 2005 with 1088 miles on it(more on it than that now) and it was like new. I'll put up a pic of it after i washed and waxed it in a friends basement. I've ridden before but always as a passenger until I took the MSF class last year and now I'm hooked. :rawk:

Welcome to the madhouse

Ahaaa! Modified grips & bar ends. Nice! :2tup:

Yes, that and mirrors too. Was on the bike when i got it. Like the grips but the mirrors are a tad small.

I agree mirrors are on the small side.They also look like they don't ark out far enough.I had a pair that didn't ark out enough,replaced them,big advantage in seeing.The factory mirrors don't have enough ark either.
