it's been less than a week since i picked up Raven. rode Saturday, sunday, monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. no riding today due to 50MPHH winds...

but...

i ordered a calsci screen and picked up a Givi tail rack from a fellow inmate here today. they should be here before i can ride again next Tuesday or wednesday.

i really want the color matched trunk, but i'll have to wait to scrape up my pennies before i drop $600++ for the box and rack. so for less than the price of a steak dinner for 2, i'll use the Givi box i have in the garage.

now if the snow and wind (yes, i live in ABQ) will quit, i can ride again. :yahoo:

Oh...Holy ****! When you started talking about wind, I thought, "Man...It was windy here today too." I mostly post here from my phone lately, so I don't see locations.

I'm in Albuquerque too, so I dealt with that same crappy wind today. It's blowing like a muther right now...haha...

Anyway, I'm on the west side, so if you wanna get together for a ride, send me a PM. Hell, if I'da known you were here, I'da offered to help you with your re-raising issue.

FWIW, where'd you buy your bike???

And when you're done with those check out my for-sale listing for some more ideas :lol: And let me know if you have a buddy looking for a nice bike so he can ride with you!

~ phone's got a GPS.

~ already have the risers.

~ if i pony up for a new seat, it'll be a corbin. i like those.

~ shocks and forks are fine. sheesh, she's only got 6k on the clock...

~ dude, i live in a desert. i really don't need the grip warmers...

~ PC5 might be an option. she sure rides smoothe as it is...

well, the screen and bracket showed up Tuesday. i got them both buttoned on, and i finally got a chance to ride it this afternoon...

i'm really likin that Calsci screen. the faster you go, the better it works. and it's quiet...

Show us some photos, BigPaz. In famous words of long time FJR Forum Member La Pinguina Plata-Silver Penguin-Miss Jilly Beans: Without pics it didn't happen! We'd like to view your farkles.
