    Passing other vehicles on two lane roads

    Dude that's so true. I was once behind a long line of cages on a two-lane I know quite well. We came to a red light that had a left turn lane.

    Thinking of FJR

    They do exist ! Fender Eliminator & Hugger

    That's a sweet looking setup 1815. How did you mount your license plate? And what's the purpose of the hugger other than it looks pretty cool? How does your setup do in the rain, in terms of keeping water off your tail, etc? Thanks.

    Exhaust Recommendations

    Don't let the pummeling you are about to receive dissuade you from these forums. ;) Lots of good info here. Search for: holeshots, two brothers, staintunes, blue flame, leo vince, remus, D&D, to name a few (perhaps most).

    Experienced road rage this morning.

    Unless the dude's an absolute ***** he's probably a bit worried right now. You know where he lives and you know his car. Anytime between now and doomsday you could seek your revenge.
