There's a 5 mile loop around a farm near my house that I ride a lot and I've always wanted to take some pictures there so here they are
Since I last posted, I got put on a set of Protaper atv mid bend bars , an top box that fits 2 helmets, a national cycle deflector windscreen and pirelli sport demon tires.
I bend the cheap superbike bars that were on it before by sliding into a ditch on a sandy tight turn. I also broke the brake pedal, jammed the cylinder and broke off the turn signal which I haven't replaced it yet. After falling I checked out my tires and realized they were like 15 years old so I had to replace them. The protaper bars feel a lot better and are wider anyway, and the tires are so much better in turns, feels great.
I miss the rain protection from the RT fairing, but not roasted legs. The deflector screen and luggage is really nice though to because it can all come off in less than a couple of minutes for the nice days. I might try the RS fairing someday if I can get a hold of one. I ride my K every day now, it's such a great feeling machine.
