Here's the latest in my efforts to mildly caffeinate my Baby:

- Finally took off my Superbars and tried my M-bars.
- Installed (and had painted) my new Thruxton rear fender (thanks Steve!)
- Installed new LSL turn signals

I'm still waiting for my Lucas Tail Light before I can do the rears.

I'll take some better pics when the lights are on there.

You know, they don't look BLUE at all. They look kinda yellow-purple, I mean, a very unique and attractive kinda purple and yellow... :-D

Ridge, when you install the fork gaitors do you have to take off the fork leg protector things?

Lookin' good Ridge! You lookin' to dump the superbars, cuz I'm interested in buying 'em.

And why is your bike parked in the kitchen? Looks like your wife just cleaned the floors too. :-D

Looks very good! Can't wait to see it in person. Are you planning to ride on Sunday?

Ridge,

How comfortable are those M-bars? My wrists were aching a bit (stock bars) after my recent adventure to Wendover (716 miles in one day) and I am curious how the M-bars are working out. I also have a set of Sport bars if anyone is interested.

Ridge-----------Where do I start? Your photogaphy skills are superb-your bike & its habitat-looking good as always-even down to reflection of toolbox caster in floor! Like the LSL turn signals & Dart flyscreen!

Awesome is an understatement (once again). Got any thing else planned yet, after the Lucas Tail Light & rear LSL turn signals go on?
