With buddy's SV for comparison, heh

Changes since the last update include the addition of handguards, lights, license plate, and a SportVue HUD system.

thank you! I've been off of the site for a few days, and this is the first thread I've opened upon my return. Needless to say, its a wonderful suprise.

where are all the stickers

CAUTION DO NOT STICK HANDS NEAR MOVING PARTS

 

[eisenfaust]

What stickers? I took off all the warning stickers... and it has a logo on the tank. What else does it need?

 

[Maviryk]

The only thing I don't like... is that your entired backside must have been wet after a couple puddles!

 

[zabije cie]

very nice!!! About those headlights, did you change the bulbs or just left it how they came?

 

[SVmikeS]

I love it. Congrats.

That bike sure has an attitude!!:evil6::violent1:

 

[tlc4diving]

I sure hope that seat never fail while you're cruising down the highway at 70mph.

 

[orangegilly]

Dude, I love the bike, but ****, it seems like half of it is missing.

And I wonder if any popo might hassle you about the license plate placement.....it's where you would normally get hassled, but where else would you put it? ;D

 

[eisenfaust]

To answer a few questions, lets see:

Yes, my ass does end up wet. I have waterproofs; I just didn't feel like putting them on today.

The bulbs are what came with the headlight. I think they're 30w each? I honestly have no clue, but they work. Taillights are 24-bulb LEDs.

I have thought about the possibility of the seat failing. If it does, well, hopefully I can transition my weight to the pegs fast enough. I don't think it will, though. I've been trying to break it since I installed it a few months ago, and I can't get it to budge.

License plate placement is actually ****ed close to stock. Height wise, anyway. Angle is similar too. It's not obscured at all, so I don't think the cops would have any problem with it. They might have a problem with my exhaust, signals, etc. We'll see.

Nice bike. How do you like the SportVue HUD?

 

[BERTalert7]

Goodness I love your bike. From every angle its so awesome! (and I love the rain, so it makes these pictures even better.)

No, but I did two years at Academy of Art, one studying Industrial Design (focus on Automotive) and another in Computer Arts/Animation (after I figured out I'd probably never make enough $$$ to repay my student loans if I stayed in ID). Oddly enough I'm now studying law (planning on focusing on IP/copyright/art practice). Go figure.

 

[Spierings]

Looks great, only your seat looks really high compared to stock.

 

[507phantom]

^^ yeah, that first pic really shows the difference. i'm 5'7", i'd never be able to reach the ground on that thing.

 

[Syscrush]

Cool artsy pics - the rain adds a nice touch.

The bike looks good with the finishing touches (hand guards, signals, etc.). Good work!

 

[mavfan]

is that comfortable for you sitting so high like that? i think it'd look awesome doing a burnout!

 

[MagpieTear]

Primo urban assault bike. The design betrays it's past life as a courier, simple, nothing that's not needed, high field of view for city traffic. Great job man.
