Try riding with a pair of soft top shoes so you can "feel" if you've topped out the shift lever when you up shift. Just to make sure you're not...
There's a little pointy thing on the weights that stick up into the small hole in the bar. Use a small screwdriver/awl or something to press down...
Thanks, I bought mine from Exotic Sportbikes but I think they are no longer in business. I was curious so I looked up when I actually bought these...
Sure, no sweat. Thanks for the compliments. Hit me with an e-mail addy and I'll get some photos out for you. It wouldn't be hard to gin up...
The rear rack/sissy bar is from Sargent, they offered them for a limited time and I got one then. Apparently I was one of the few, as they weren't...

The '09 fasteners must be different from the '99. I've bought a couple in the last 12 years to replace a couple broken ones, but they rarely...
Dunno about anyone else, but I've never put drop one of premium in my '99 and have had no issues at all. It does have the PC III, but I don't...
Thanks, we had a great time over there.
Shoot, IMO they could knock another $5000 off and I still wouldn't be interested. They simply don't flip any of my switches.
