What a great trip!

Very nice. Every time I go out to our HQ in San Jose, I rent a bike and drive that section of the PCH. Big Sur-awesom...

Started working on the first optimizations:

1. Added the European front plate.
2. Started covering the chrome. (The Plastidip process was easier than I anticipated)
3. Scheduled an appointment to have stripes put on the bonnet and boot, and a flat black Union Jack on the roof

I know they are all small and cosmetic, I just need to be patient and keep busy until I start under the bonnet.

This is addictive........

I installed a set of Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 non-runflats today. So far so good. It rides so much smoother than the conti runflats.

I love it. It got here faster than I anticipated and was thicker than I thought.

Talking Awesome new side markers

This is one of my absolute favorite mods yet...they were fairly cheap in cost..$78...but made a big impact As far as looks IMO. The form and functionality are great and I would recommend doing this mod for any one with a CM No matter what color or "style" you have for your ride they will go good. Thanx again and big props to Outmotoring for offering this quality product!

I am definitely going to order a set of these. Thanks for sharing!

I saw these posted too...http://www.outmotoring.com/product.php?productid=125404

Does anyone have these? I'd be curious to see what they look like installed and lit up.

No. Those are not "side markers". They are turn signal repeaters. Whether the originals or LEDs, they are only on with the turn signals.
