What a awful color that is. Oh yea that car tire is dangerous too.  I am thinking about paint also, but only because I got some hardbags that dont match. I wonder if you paint the fastest color (Blue/Cream) if it slows them down? Good looking bike. I like the solo look without the rear seat.  |

Not to steal this tread but you can get a nice Sony camera at Wally World for alittle over $100.00 and it takes great pictures and video as well.  |

It's a Michelin(sp) Rapture. In case nobody saw the side covers the Honda emblems are off the new Honda Fury. About the only thing left is maybe some Kury grips. The running lights are a Wally world special and man they are bright. David |

Nice job David!!!! Looks sweet!!!!!!! Hey, if you are not doing anything this weekend, meet me in Minnesota! We are gonna P in the headwaters of the Mississippi and stuff..... I guess you gotta ride for some purpose..... Seriously, looks very sweet bro! Wouldn't mind going. Got a bunch of projects to do. Got to rebuild the forks on the 98, install a generator, and recover from go cart whip lass  . Was riding go carts Saturday at my grandson birthday party and got shoved into the wall. Didn't worry too much about it till the bumper failed and I hit a 3" steel post head on. Then got rear ended. Had a little 4 year old girl riding with me. Lucky she didn't get hurt. It did knock her ear ring out. It knocked my glasses and hat off. Hurt my neck and back. Went yesterday and had the doc adjust me. Got on the bike and rode. I think riding the bike did more than the doc did  . David |

It does very well. I payed more for another system on my Tourer and this one plays well. It has a switch on the amp to take the bass out. I payed $114.00 delivered. I had got the chrome set up and they looked nice, but with the way I had them mounted when the sun reflected on them it would blind me. So I took the grills off and painted them black. So you might want to order the black. The chrome looks nice, but reflects too much. I can hear mine playing very well running 80 mph with a full helmet and the Ragnar cut on my exhaust.

Mine is the smaller amp. Not much bigger than a pack of smokes. That seems like a good deal on the 250 watts amp. So far I'm well pleased with mine. David |

Just keep an eye on the size of the amp if you go for the larger one. I have a 150 watt amp, which is more than enough to blow the 4.25" speakers, and it is a pretty tight fit in the space on top of my battery under my seat. I almost wish I would have opted for the 100 watt.
