Default progress on my deployment bike

well as some of you know ive been in iraq for the past year, i just got home 2 weeks ago and have been workin round the clock on the used 929 i bought while i was away. first the dude i got the bike from was a total doucher and the bike was in bad shape. he had nitrous on the bike, but i decided i didnt need that so i undertook the task of removing it. well, as we all know one small task goes from just that to an epic fix-all. the nitrous was hardwired into the main wiring harness and it took 2 days to figure out how to get it out and put the harness and bike back together...

Looks good bro, that 954 front end makes it look great. The colors work too. Good luck, it wont be long.

Thanks, I like the 954 front end, the wires were a mess up front also, so I had to take the front fairings off and clean that up as well, it was so messy it was impairing the steering of the bike

It was supposed to be a straight up trade; but the jack wagon wanted an extra 250 on top. (after the trade was done) ...long story!
