Re: Mods
Let's see, put an updated clarion radio with Bluetooth and mp3player in thanks to Pete. Installed a Utopia drivers backrest and small subwoofer in the trunk. Also replaced the windshield. Haven't ridden yet as still too much gravel on the roads up here from the winter.

Re: Mods
Not much to report here, I did get some diffusers for the Cree LED's on the front. spreads the beam from the 10deg to a wide angle of 30 on each light.
I have returned to the front fender project and have a workable formed blank. The one I will use for production will have some type of cut-out Logo or design. It will have five fastners , carriage bolt ,
( from the inside out ) and then a stainless steel shallow acorn nut on the outside.
What has been payin the heating bill has been the metal art work I have been doing, this rough work is an old chevy one of 3 that I made from a photo. When PC's work ' their the best thing since two wheels...
The pic of the garmin mount has been shown before I did that in the fall. I have been out of the shop for about two weeks but have been feeling better and put in a few hours tonight. Doesn't seem to be much work needed on the old 1200. Just Basic maintenance
I worked on all that once the roads got salted and sanded at the beginning of winter here in NJ. Just not enough free time for me.. I'll change the oil a few weeks before the rally trip and decide on tires at that point also. but it needs a good cleaning after a nice 200 mile day. Soon I hope....

Re: Mods
Ron I saw them too and chuckled about it but laughed out loud this morning reading your post/question about them. Loud enough to grab the attention of others in the house!
