I like it. The nut/bolt pattern on the subframe is really cool looking. It definitely has a mad max outlaw thing going on with it. It looks great. Don't run out of gas (I don't see an odometer)

as for the odometer or any speedo, its not necessary here in Mi and its used for city anyhow-always full tank.

Thought so. Alot of people complain about them, honestly, I have them front and rear on my bike. I have over 2400 miles on them from the last month and they still look brand new. They do take a bit to warm up, but for my 110 mile round trip commute, they are great. They hold good in rain and even torrential downpours. Plus, they were 175 a set

You have a very clean bike. I like the less is more look of it.

Totally agree with you guys - I love my Shinko's. I'm running 010's, I love 'em to death. Best tire I've ever had (vs Pirelli Corsa's, Pilot Powers, Pilot road II's, etc.). They can be dicey over the white lines in the wet, but what tire isn't. And in the dry, they grip and rip. Then, there's the cost. You can't beat 'em. People talk **** until they try them (shinko's).

I don't care about the speedo/odo (I'm not sure if speedo's/odo's are mandatory anywhere really) - it just sucks trying to guesstimate how many miles it's been since your last fill up. But if you're always close to a gas station, then rock on.
