Ride Report--First 5 days of ownership and 900 miles.

[XKnight]

The Helibars are great. I am waiting to make the final adjustments until after my Day-Long seat arrives in a couple of weeks. Note that risers can not be used with the Helibars. You may want to consider having Keith do the install--he has some custom tools the Helibar sent him. At $100 cost, it was a no brainer for me.

Side note: I ride down to Houston for work about once a month. PM me if you are interested in meeting for lunch.

Yup, I'm having Keith do the install. As you said, for $100 it's a no brainer for me too. I do enjoy installing my own accessories, but the Helibars are a bit more involved than I'm comfortable with.

I'll pm you on lunch.

I am also a new F6 owner, had my 2013 since last Friday. Bought it new from the dealer. It was the standard model so I had to add the backrest and luggage rack myself.

I only rode 250 miles this week due to work. I suffer as far as riding in the winter but I am a teacher so I really pack on the miles in the summer.

Looking forward to reading about the bike on this forum. You never know what you can pick up.
