Jamie, is there any part in particular that you'd like pics of specifically?
Thniking along the lines of the cutting of the rear fender for mounting of the new one. Pretty much anything that you feel may be out of the ordinary.

Here's pics of the test fit.
Just took it all back apart and it's going to the paint guy tomorrow.
While it's gone I'll be putting in the tricky air.

Dude that's gonna be sick! Looks like your bags are close to touching the ground as is. Be careful when you put on the Tricky as that'll drop the rear end at least a few inches fully dumped.

Regards....greeny

Re:Just ordered Baddad Bagger parts 3 Years, 1 Month ago  
Thanks for the kind words guys. I think where the bike is on driveway makes the bags look a little lower than they really are. It slants down and then up- right where the rear tire is, to collect water. But yeah- it's seriously low- that's why I got the tricky air- to firm up ride when the lady is on the back. I swear that's the only reason I got it.

Looks like the exhaust gets in next Monday- if all goes as planned and the bike is back together by then (paint guys says 2-3 days) I'll be on the street by this time next week. Of course how often do things go as planned.

Anyways, thanks for following along- it's been an interesting journey. I have no real biker friends- my biggest supporter has been my lady- and now you guys. However I think I'm going to the local star meeting tomorrow to remedy that situation.

Cheers!
Gabe

Just ordered the Baddad skid plates. Looks like they just added another roadstar to their picture gallery.

You beat me to it...was going to mention their plates.

Yep, I was looking at that R* in their gallery last week. Looks nice. There is another one (teal) on their customer page. I'll be looking for yours there soon!
