Congratulations on your purchase, and welcome to the forum. It seems as if you are already on your way to do a fair amount of mods. Any questions you might have will most likely have been addressed before (and can be found using the search function), or there will definitely be some very knowledgable folk around here to answer.

Good luck and ride safe.

Greetings,
Thor

Welcome, Bozzo, and congrats on the new ride. Post some pics when you get a chance.

(We're not all quite as wacko as Bert; but he keeps us laughing - most of the time. )

Welcome, Bozzo. Where from? You're not one of those heartless Aussies who will taunt and tease (some of) us about our weather during the dead of (our) winter, are you?
