yellow bike is in my garage!!!
« on: April 17, 2005, 11:07:43 PM »

Hi all,

I picked up my yellow SEEG yesterday afternoon at the dealers. MOBE happened by and dialed in the progressive 440's for me, 4 turns seems about right, (I'm a svelte 230 lbs.1)
I couldn't be happier with the first 20 miles, the bike seems tight and right. With the Forcewinder, Techlusion, and Rineharts, it dynoed at 93 hp, 99 ft. lb., at 4000 rpm, should only go up closer to redline, after breakin, of course. One disappointment though, the Kuryakin cruise arms I ordered to use for highway pegs won't fit the stealth floorboards, I guess I will put the engine guard back on for highway pegs, or I may consider a Lindy bar.
After a painful trip to the DMV tomorrow, I will be out logging those breakin miles, I can't wait to turn the horses loose!

This is my first attempt to post a picture, I hope it works.

Oh My,    [smiley=vrolijk27.gif]  that is gorgeous and I quoted twolane, cause the grey goes, just I had imagined it would. Fabulous!   [smiley=verfsmile.gif]

That is"very" "very" nice!   [smiley=multi.gif]  Well Done rekoch!  I always liked the concept of the yellow, and the first few pictures we saw, I liked it even more.  Now that we are seeing more pictures, I like it yet even more.  Congratulations.

WOW  93 H/P with only 20 miles.

Should only go up after break-in!

WOW! that yellow is a stunner in the sunlight!
I was also suprised that the flake in the silver shines orange in the sun.
One fine lookin' ride.

I like the seat and the Forcewinder.  Great choice on the grey or silver.  More pics.

Bike looks wonderful! Especially with the leg fairings off. Mine will be off soon after seeing your bike. Thanks for the pic!! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Almost forgot...you could not have done better on the seat.
