Thanks everyone. Olandobrian, i have been forgidden to giive out advice on that matter on RC. All i can say it's it's skill that you either have or you don't. It can't be tought. I would have to recommend you play free chips for a long time, like a year, before you even think about it, and if you suck you suck and give it up.
Skippy it already has an airbrush Tribal Flame paint job. It's a limited edition. I spent enough on it already at this point lol, or at least my wife thinks so lol. It sure does ride better, but way different with the ape hangers then it did with the stock bars. You drive it now instead of ride it lol. On the highway though, it is so much more comfortable with the hangers on it. It's more of a relaxed riding position. I only wiegh in at 116lbs soaking wet, so an 800 is all i need lol. It is shaft drive, and has had vance & hines headers, and been Dyno tuned and a power commander added, and a newcustom map installed, so it will easily bring the front tire up when you go into second gear pretty quick if ya don't watch it lol. I went a little nuts with making it how i wanted, since it's the first time i ever went and bought a new one. The sport bike i just sold, ( ZRK1200R ), i put 26k on in just under 3 years, so this one will see it's share of Florida. It just won't be at 200mph lol.
Fuzzy i would love to have those links if you don't mind. Never hurts to talk to people that ride the same bike to learn it's tricks.
