I just changed my bars out to the FZ1 bar. Everything went just along swimmingly (I elected to grind the little plastic tab off the throttle sleeve). When I got everything back together, fired it up and noticed the throttle would not return. I figured there was not enough slack in the cable, so...
I finally got tired of looking at my 2up seat and decided to bite the bullet and buy a seat cowl. The Powerbronze won out of the TCP, it looked more OEM to me.
Just for reference, here's the tail end to start.

Not sure where to put this in the forum, but does anyone have a Joe Rocket Manta tail bag? Does it work with the velcro straps? I've got the tank bag and it works quite nice, but I'm looking for some additional storage. Pictures would be cool.

Hey there, just stumbled across this forum while looking for some parts. Seems like a good crowd. I just bought a 09 off the showroom floor two weeks ago! I had been riding cruisers for years and suddenly got the sport bike bug, so here I am. I'm having a hard time keeping it slow during the...
