Now I need to go outside and measure. Pretty sure I'll be 3-4 inches to high.

Re:Most recent pics of your ride 3 Years, 1 Month ago  
A while back, someone posted another thread with some very nice looking R's.

http://roadstarclinic.com/component/option,com_fireboard/func,view/Itemid,187/catid,49/id,255353/

I said in that thread, that after adding windshield, pass and driver backrests, I think my bike looks a lot worse than when I bought it. So I decided to do something about it this week, and removed the rear seat, pass floorborads, and the 2 back rests. I am much happier now, I think it looks a lot better.

This will be the last picture of mine before the new paint job. The parts are at the painter right now and I've got some nice chrome parts waiting to be installed also, I'll get pics up soon.
