Aired up. What I ran into with my quest to get as much travel as possible is the that when the bike is aired up all the way the fork cans aren't long enough. These are the extended cans! I'll deal with that issues later as it's not a deal breaker for me right now. I know when I ride the bike it isn't at max height so I wont see the gap during normal use.

The bottom of the fender is close to the ground. I am thinking this is because I have no air in the rear shocks. I say this as I know the fender was made with 3-3 1/2" of clearance. If for some reason the initial measurements were off I'll cut the fender so I have at least 3" of clearance. I usually set my fenders up with 3 1/2" simply because I use a 4x4 block of wood to hold them when I drill the holes.

Wiring/stereo time. I am no fan of wiring so getting motivated to do it was a chore.

The amps will fit stacked alongside of the radio.

I was told the ignition would not work with the rake kit. Well.... I really didn't want to relocate my ignition so I did a little work to the ignition housing (IE  I filed the crap out of it) and it works!

New Fairing Factory lids. I like the one piece grill over the two piece grills that were on my Cycle Sounds lids.





They are triple lids and I'll be running two 6.5" and one 4" tweeter in the middle hole....

Due to the rake kit moving everything forward this is what I'm left with. This is the one thing I don't like. It has been suggested I cut the plate off however that is the reason I went with a bolt on kit, no cutting of my frame.

Broke a part during the wiring. I think this is what blocks the bass from getting to the tweeters.... I'll try to get one at the local stereo shop or a Radio Shack if there is still one in existence in my area that sells more than just cell phones.....

Fast forward a little and I installed the fairing just to take the bike for a ride. The stereo isn't done yet. I'm still waiting on some more parts plus I have to fabricate a few pieces. The radio is getting interference that I wasn't able to track down yet so I stopped working on it before I made myself mad.... ok madder.......  ;)
