Few pics of my ride....
Finally got some pictures of my ride. Although they are not the greatest I figured I'd post 'em up.
Yeah, she's old, heavy, and long.....but still a joy to ride! Feel free to comment....

Not really sure what I could do to it....any suggestions?
Sure there's exhaust, but I don't really wanna be loud(er) and that's a pretty penny. I've already got the fender eliminated(custom), can't go solo because it's an ugly ass uni-seat,....what else? |

Well, this one is custom....by the previous owner. It's not the greatest though. I would someday like to get it repainted, not sure on exact cost, but I'm pretty sure that's not quite in my funds right now....

IMHO older bikes aren't worth the cost of a paint job or modding. Enjoy as is. I think it looks fine.  |

Save your $ its not worth modding it. It looks great. Some one took good care of it. Spend your $ on gear, At least you can take that with you to your next bike.

Good gear, good tires.. thats about all you need. I see you already have M1s though.

the bike looks pretty clean, just keep riding it the only thing I would do would be add some braided brake lines.

So I take it M1's are good tires? I know nothing about bike tires, never even heard of Metzler's(sp?) before this bike....

What's the benifit to braided lines? Less flex therefore maintaining a more constant pressure? Or is it just a longevity concern?
Thanks for everyones postive comments on the bike. I've heard from several that I should just leave it as is and enjoy it, and I agree. I just figured if there were some relatively cheap mods I could do to either help the appearance or increase performance/handling I'd give 'em a shot. |
