I chopped an ounce of metal off my bike. The rest was either plastic or bolted. After that, the seat I wanted to have, fit. I have not hacked off stuff that would prevent it from being restored but only because I wouldn't want to make it irreversible unless it were a professional job. I'm no metal-worker. Perhaps I would benefit from some threads about that. The previous owner welded different shock mounts to lower the bike. I'll take my cafe threads wherever I can find them, sub-forum or not.

Oh, for the record. I dropped my L 21mm on the front forks and I truly cannot tell the difference between it and my E. I really don't get the hang up Tkent. Unless you just have a thing for grudges

tell me exactly how do you expect to turn a 2,77 power2weight ratio machine, maybe shaft driven, designed and engineered to offer a more than decent transport, in a wide spectrum of possible uses (chasing twists, touring two up etc.) into a rocket, by hacking at some brackets or just tell me what, maybe the pillion footrest, the horn, what?
Check out my page and tell me if the bike I have now, isn't faster, better handling than the bike I stared with!
thats exactly what I'm doing, making it a purpose machine, I'm sacrificing comfort for performance!
I have no interest in owing a modern rocket, think there ugly and to fast for 95% of the people that own them.
nobody seams to have a problem with someone anding 75lb of comfort things to a motorcycle (that herts performace).
but As soon as someone removes 25lb everyone is up in arms?
Sorry for that tkent02Last edited by Guest; 06-06-2015, 06:22 PM.

I hate chrome.

When I had the L I ditched those buckhorns toot sweet, couldn't do anything about the tank, could live with the chrome, but I kinda liked the seat from a comfort standpoint. It was 'f-u-g-l-y' but it was great to sit on."Men will never be free until Mark learns to do The Twist."
