I wave at everyone when it's safe. Took a nice trip today down to Mark Twain National Forest. Got about 80% returns. I think at least more than 50% of the Harley dudes waved back. I'm finally getting past the whole annoyed for not waving back thing, I'm having fun and I'm gonna let you know...
Yep as said, 325 shipping included. I was expecting a big difference in terms of wind, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.
And if anyone knows how I might be able to figure out the brand of lights and those ballast/relays I'm looking to sell them at a fair price. Just want...
Got it finished this weekend. Actually got done on Friday night with the wiring/hiding and mounting, had a few beers to celebrate and had to wait til Saturday to fix the throttle. We had to take off the throttle/kill switch/ blinker/caution switch assemblies to slip on the mirrors. Bar end...
Made some progress today. Got the fairing off easy enough though we have our wiring work cut out for us. The instructions for the wiring are clear enough so that shouldn't be too difficult. Sorry for the crappy low light pic but, the 12 pack bribe paid to my brother and buddy kinda cut into...
Haha I might do that. I'm gonna work on it this evening after I get out of work. I have know idea on the pricing of these things so I'll need to do a little more research too make sure neither of us gets a crappy deal. Pretty sure you're correct on needing a new projector with high/low beams in...
Well I wont be able to work on it much today unfortunately, (raining and not enough dang room in the garage) but I'd feel better if I had my brother who knows all about bikes there with me to make sure I don't frig up the wiring anyway. I'm certain I could piece apart the fairing, but the wiring...
Just got my VS01 kit in the mail looks like I'm also missing the turn signals which kinda sucks because the guy I bought the bike from did some slight modding of his own. You can see in the pic the flashers are now flush with the fairing, so I'll probably need to go out and buy some new mounts...
Good stuff, cant wait to see your bike all finished. :rockon: In the process of getting a VS01 kit ordered from Vishnu and this is solidifying his already good reputation around here.
I'll post some pics of mine as soon as I get it/mount it. But I literally just e-mailed him yesterday and I...
Well worked on it for another hour or so today with just the microfiber and I'm pretty impressed. There are still some small parts that were tough to apply sufficient elbow grease to, so I'll go out and pick up some sandpaper pretty soon if I want to get perfectionist on it... :smoking:
But I...
Thanks for the compliments and advice!! I was just thinking to myself last night 'if it only took an hour to get them that much better, I should just put another few hours into it and see how that works'. So after work today I'm gonna ditch the steel wool and get back at it with the microfiber...
Tools:
Mothers Mag Metal Polish (10ish bucks)
Circular Terry Cloth Pads (3 pack - 4-5ish bucks)
Microfiber Cloths (2 pack - 4ish bucks I think)
Worked on them for about 1 hour to and hour and a half, and I'm singing the praises to Mothers Mag. Only thing is the middle two pipes. You can still...
Hey everybody. Sorry I really have been lurking around here for a while before formerly saying hi. Got my (fast/slow?) silver 04 back in june of 2012. Name's Andy and this bike has made the backroads of MO a dream. Thanks for all the info and encouragement. Looking forward to sharing some...
Just wanted to say thanks for this thread. Looking to convert my 04 to naked, and this has helped immensely! And yes, I've since taken the cup holder off.
