    Getting my bike ready to ride

    Just got the seat cover replaced. I'm going to add rubber pads around the tank.

    Sharp looking bike. Are those rotor covers custom painted? They give it the Batmobile look.

    My wife gave me the covers for my birthday but I didn't want to put them on the bike the way they came (gloss black) so I decided to get them painted. I got them painted by a local guy but I had to buy the paint myself, he couldn't find it, and it was pretty expensive. Just the paint was about a hundred bucks but I think it was worth it.

    I bought the Bag at J&P cycles in Daytona Beach. I really like it because is the right size and it comes with all the accessories I need including the cover.

    That is actually an 1800 VTX F model 2005. I was going to sale it but I decided to keep it for local rides.

    Nice bike, in the best color they made it in.
    What did you use to lift the passenger backrest?

    I bought an extended plate from a rider here in the forums. Makes a big difference!
