Not even out of the box and it's already being abused....

Not to worry all is good but some assembly is required....

I go to the shop tomorrow to take delivery and then go get it all dirty.

 
Now that's funny Trip!! How old do you have to be before you need to stop riding on those butt floss seats though?! More power to ya Bill. Looks like fun.

 
Too bad it will never look that good again. Bill - You putting a Rukluse in that?
Absolutely I am going to put a Rekluse clutch in the bike. Other mods will include an Enduro Engineering aluminum skid plate, Scott rear rotor guard, Tubliss tires, Acrebis front rotor protector, Garmin Montana GPS mount, Podium Graphix kit and some other bling. I'm also thinking of adding a Clake Two clutch / brake system so I can have a lefthand rear hand brake.

Let the farkling begin.

I'm old enough to collect a government pension but I'm still not old enough to be NIehart's age. I'm not quite old enough to ride the Fossil Class at the GNCC's.

The pros will tell you that you are not supposed to sit on a dirt bike seat when you are riding but dammit I spent good money for that seat (along with the rest of the bike) and I am going to use it. Have you ever seen the seat on a trials bike? It is made out of paint!

Congrats Bill!

Jim just sold his Katoom this past week. He's gone strictly 4 wheels offroad.

 
Here's a question for you techie types.

Name this part.....

I need to order the competition kit tomorrow that will give me the proper ECU and a throttle stop screw that lets the throttle open more than 1/4 open at the throttle body.

On the Harley forum that is the good time seat adapter for the pillion. What are you doing with it?
