Just a few mods , exhaust - PC - the norm , getting the 15/41 sprocket soon so I can get this thing up easly in second !

Great Forum !! Lots of "real" advice here.

Viagra works better and is less expensive and less risky. And you might want to read the "law of the land" before you move in. (AKA: forum rules)

Re: Riding Red for the First Time
nothing wrong with the chrome pipes and rims (likely lighter). At least it isn't the frame and swing arm....

Are the wheels chromed or polished aluminum?
