Looks good, I really like those headlights. And that tail brings it all together nicely. Could you tell me more about the risers you got and how you mounted them. Also have you noticed much of a difference in how the bike handles. And thanks I appreciate your support for my sumo f3 idea.

Hey, so the risers are from a Virago $15 on ebay. I really like the handling, it's easy to throw the bike around with the wider bars. Just came back from a 1500km road trip that included some kamikazi runs up an down some great mountain roads.

that sounds exactly like what I need to do then. Did you weld or bolt the risers on and did you have to get any longer cables or brake line. thanks

The top triple is drilled and the risers bolt in place, had to fab some spacers for the underside but that was easy. I didn't replace my lines but I had to get pretty creative with the routing (I also have stainless brake lines). The clutch cable needs to be longer though as it binds at full lock.

OK, got some work done in the off season.

Re-did some of the harness to relocate the battery, painted the subframe and did a new undertray.



Got a new RR integrated tail light, mounted by plate better with a couple of LED lights.



Cut the can down to 10", will be wrapping the header this week.



The stubby can sounds great and I'm liking the look for the new season.
