Re: Ground Resistance: Scrub Time
Thanks fellas. Ok, lots to throw at you guys.
Mounted the ped-slicer, and threw in the headlight to start some wiring. Super jazzed about how that looks together.
The happy fun time stops there. Some issues:
The new shocks are way stiffer than I had anticipated, and although the engine is not in yet, these things barely sense my 190 pound ass. It also sits real high in the rear. I hope the engine weight squats it a bit, because I have trouble throwing my leg over with the 'decoration' behind the seat. Then there is the issue of the angle of the swing arm... Thoughts?
Next, I plan on using the stock battery box with all the electrics exposed behind the side cover. Once it is prettied up, it should look cool.
Which brings us to this:
If the canister isn't gooing to house the reg/rec, then what to do? It would make a nice tool and registration cubby, though I already vented it to cool the rec. I might just make something a little more low profilto fill the visual gap.
I'm also contemplating streamlining the silver cage piece, and losing the phony antenna. It sure would be eaisier to toss a leg over. Still have to ponder that one. The front blinkers are annoying me too. I think I'll mock up the whole blinker with wire cover, and see if it works. If not they'll get streamlined too.
And since you are still here, have a gatuitious low light shot.
