Kinda bike? Just simple hand gards to deflect wind are miracles even just for bolt on winter mods

 

Nice! Hell of an upgrade.

 

CBR600F4i. That might be something for me to consider!

Y’all know I love me some big scooters but holy shit does that thing have a big ol’ nose

 

real highway commuting scooters

scooters capable of 85mph out the box, they are seen as dorky in america but very common around the world!

they do look fugly

 

Straight out of The Jetsons.

 

With the right paint scheme that would look like something in the Star Wars series....

 

That is such an ugly machine.

 

i always thought this about the bmw c1






a real chick magnet

 

In other news, guess what got here yesterday:




All the dancy shit.


Any bets on when it's running? I'm guessing weekend after Thanksgiving..I think the exhaust is going to be a PITA, some of the wiring harness is going to suck to extend/modify, and I need to modify one of the motor mounts, plus figure out if the pegs and skid plate fit/what it'll take to make them fit.

 

yea if your doing big stretches of highway and want to make good time... but to quote some Pirsig...

" We want to make good time, but for us now this is measured with emphasis on “good” rather than “time” and when you make that shift in emphasis the whole approach changes.”

or in other words we also want some single track too ...

 

ahh yes more like it. And yes it is a chick magnet, I’m sure the photographer struggled to get a shot without a passing by hottie in frame checking it out.

 

i think hand guards will interfere with the fairing. at full lock turning. i considered it for my ninja, but it seems unlikely to work. i went with winter gloves. still cold, but then again, it rarely gets below 40 F here

 

That the 140 from TBolt? Keep us posted on how that goes! I’m super tempted to get one and attach it to something stupid.








Coincidentally I saw this the other day.

 

Duly noted, thanks for the information. I will see how tomorrow’s commute goes with the gloves and thermal liners.

That’s gotta be a 250.

 

shaving cream??

 

the scuba community uses spit in their goggles, wonder if that works for bikes in a pinch
