I am searching for replacement bars, highway bars and a seat....did the once over for loose bolts, etc and you would think I was still riding my old shovelhead....I had stuff about to fall apart....lol Planning on a full strip, clean up when I get my new parts in.

No upgrades here, I'm still riding as the weather permits. I plan on riding to work tomorrow. Christy's 1300 should arrive on Tuesday so next weekend will be spent going over it checking for loose items etc... We are thinking about getting a pair of tourmaster sissy bar travel bags to have for our first trip. Our budget is stretched so we have to take little baby steps with two bikes to feed and clothe!!! :lol:

We have to have gas money for weekend rides!!! That is a priority!!

I had a chance to blow a bunch of money on my ride this winter. They changed the way we are paid for vacation and I got a check for four weeks pay at the end of the year. Momma let me blow it on mc parts just so long as she gets a new couch.
I ordered a custom seat from ultimate, got big bike parts risers, a clock that mounts on the handlebars, kury crurise mounts and pegs, the x cut-out air breather cover and k&n filter,pair valve coasters, big shots, and a jet kit.
The bike is still in the shop in Salina getting fixed from my wreck, after I get it home I'm going to do the pair valve mod, jet the carb, and put the breather on, hope to gain some ponies. It sure bites not having a bike to ride.

I have only done a few mods. Started with the Kury. rear end clean up kit. Added matching front turn sigs. Had to make custom brackets to mount the front turn sigs the way I wanted. Added a cobra tach. Added the Pladdin removal backrest and luggage rack. Waiting on a CDS air cleaner to arrive. And wishing for some dryer weather. :)

Haven't done much more to Patty's Aero. Added the hand guards for the cold times. She already had the Corbin Stinger, Memphis Shades windshield, and chrome lowers, and the chrome switch covers. So she is pretty much done for now.

On my X, I just put on the Corbin Young Guns, the Hypercharger Pro, desmogged it, and re-mounted the throw over saddle bags. Already had the Memphis and lowers. Looks like a short backrest and small rack will be next so I have more to support loading it up. Looking at some graphics improvements also.

Now if we decide to do the "garage tour" thing...I have a new Craftsman lift that hasn't made it out of the box yet. Let's get to riding :D
