Just Picked Her Up
« on: November 05, 2009, 09:45:13 AM »

Just picked up my new Red and Granite :orange:. Traded the Orange and Black 07.  It will take some getting use to the color difference but man the ride!  Alittle stiffer but alot more solid. Turns are a whole new experience.  This thing rides like it's on rails compared to the 94 and 07. 

Only thing I plan on doing for the time being is different handlebars.  Had W575 Wild 1's on the 07 and for the short in arm, they made a huge difference.  The stock bars now feel like drag bars.  Anyone put the Wild 1's for the 2010 on yet.  I did the ones on the 07 myself but I know the throttle was different. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

I may have to take off early. Having her sit in the parkinglot just seems wrong.  I'll put up pictures as soon as she is sitting still long enough to take them :2vrolijk_21:.

We'll just have to see how long that lasts.

That's a long time, good luck with the new ride.

Looking forwards to a lot of pictures as I haven't seen one.  Not too many out there yet of this color.  Congrats!

Congrats on the new bike.
I have an 09 and did the WO575's myself.  No real issues, just takes a whole lot of time.  Maybe less for you since you "have been there done that" once before.

Okay so I have added a few things.  Nothing big, just a few to make it more comfortable.  Added floorboard extensions, front and back, trim around radio, speaker trim, and new heavy duty tour pak hinges. Haven't put the hinges on yet.  Okay so it wasn't all to make it more comfortable.  Here are a few pictures.
