Was that Kenny G? I am in the mood for romance! 1700cc, love my Forcewinder but I did get side lined in some good rain. I actually think the rain sock wasn't letting enough air in after it got wet, but, I didn't try taking it off either to confirm

Mark, Is your Reckless Fairing the standard Gelcoat or the Gloss black paint? I've been looking at getting one with the stereo.

Re:Vid of my Roadie. 1 Year, 2 Months ago

Nice ride. However, I will believe it when I see it later this spring.

Just an FYI. I noticed the chrome cap on your brake res. I have a great deal on plating and polishing. So, if you ever decide to make them match, I can have them polished to a mirror finish AND clear coated for $30. Same price for the clutch perch. Take 5 Bussiness days and I know you are a social butterfly so have no idea what melenium you might be with out you bike for that much time, but the offer is good.

Also, I, due to the new titanium cage in my back, have to make a back rest. I run a custom solo seat so any ideas you might have would help. I am currently on the search for a rear pillion believing it would work well as the padding.

Cheers
