Thanks for the pic Clark. This is amazing. Here is the pic via email from Clark.  Hay  Jimmyt hey.. thanks for postin it.. one day I will figger out how to do that.. only did 200 miles today.. gotta say I REEEALLY like it.. a bit more countersteering in the corners.. not bad tho.. and the braking is fantastic.. crosswinds were much more manageable too.. but with a temp of 28 degrees and a wind chill of 90mph.. I did FREEZE MY ASS OFF.. sure did enjoy having handwarmers tho..if anyone is on the fence about crossing over to the DARKSIDE... do a youtube search for darkside motorcycle.. there are some GREAT videos with a few w cameras strapped to the underside of the mc pointed at the rear tire.. dont get no better than that..
