Im just waiting on custom brake line now with 3 inch longer lower 2 lines (from coupler).
That should be the right length hopefully.
The only way i can describe it, just riding it about 10 miles, is it feels more squirrely than it did, especially going into tight turns. I will get use to it in no time though just like i did with the 280 rear tire. I had it up to 95mph and it was smooth and solid feeling. So far i like it. New handlebars for Christmas. Going for mini apes this time.

I like your current handlebars! I still have stock so far.
Hangin' to get the bearing and fb-line delivered so I can get all this installed.

That headlight is about $450 from what I can tell.. pricey but really looks mean

I also dont have a front lower cowl so I hope the rake doesnt look too 'gappy' without one :P but I guess that is what a rake is supposed to look like.

I think i paid about $175 for the headlight i have, but i know you can buy some pricey ones.
