What's your planned winter project(s) for your bike? - Page 3

It'll be going on a charger and stabil in the gas tank. First time I've done it since riding, so we'll see how that goes.

Well, let's see. I'm going to replace my handlebars, right front engine guard and right side saddle bag guard. I'm also going to replace the Kuryakin hand grips with another set and also the Kury Dually highway pegs.

Why such a strange combination of things you ask? Well, those are the things that were damaged when I went down! My leg is doing better and I'm back on my feet. The knee doesn't have the stability I'd like or the endurance yet but, it's coming along.

When it's a little better, I'll take a few hours and replace everything. Other than that, I kinda like my bike the way I have it.

I'll be riding through too. Ride my almost as much during winter as summer. Just have my snow-mobil suit on in the winter months.... [,}:)

siriusjoe --- I have the smallest of the larger Edmonds lowers. They make an enormous difference in buffeting. Best of luck getting your stickers off.
