    Changed out the front brake pads and fluid today, and took it to my favorite local parking lot to bed the pads and do some emergency braking maneuvers.
    All good! :thumbsup:

    Bags are in. They’re a lot smaller than I was expecting. But I actually like them on the bike. Not bad. But speed kings didn’t include the rain covers dammit!
    Edit: I found the covers

    I wouldn't worry about the ABS...I turn it off on trails when I remember but 9/10x I forget and it makes zero difference - leave it on. The booster plug isn't worth it in my opinion - you get used to the snappy throttle. and you're right on fender elim and skid plate are a must. I have the multistrada pegs they're great. old pic below missing some mods I think but you can see the pegs

    Thanks for the pics of the multistrada pegs. Can I just order them at the dealer?

    Another thing that is different.. I think I have an electronic throttle? There is just alot of play, before it actually accelerates. Like a 1/8 turn. Ill have to get a better picture.
    And mine has a hydraulic clutch. Its so nice compared to the Harley

    Those don’t look to bad for throw overs. If it was not such a pain in the ass (I have an anti theft bolt) on my La Pier seat I would get that setup for my Dyna WG for weekend runs.

    Pain in the fucking ass to install. 100% fine after. However, if mine ever fails, I will be ponying up the cash for a legit Memphis shades.

    It’s a hard pass for me. I just got my Memphis fairing today. It looks excellent.
    And from what I’ve seen. Install is a breeeeeze

    Bitch boi @uhplifted went China knockoff ... and he said it was a pain in the ass to install. And there might of been some chopping to get it flush.



    my two cents ... put quality on your bike. You paid a lot of $ for it. Why trash it with shitty products

    Maybe one day you’ll actually meet up and go for a ride with me and we can compare fairings and see how different the china special is

    Fuck a license plate!

    I sent my title and paperwork to the DMV a month ago. You just reminded me to try and call them today though and ask what the fucks going on

    LOLOLOL. To speak with a DMV agent is over a TWO HOUR wait. I guess I’ll never get my license plates and registration
