I noticed that I kinda hate taking the seat off. I wanted to get into the side panels independent of the seat.
So, Rivnuts on the battery strap, some thumbs screws from Amazon and BOOM! Just like that my vehicle warranty was gone 😂. (Maybe, I dunno, prolly)

Next up was vinyl wrapping the forks.
I cannot link you to the specific vinyl I used. I just happen to have this vinyl from a project years ago. Originally purchased from Gavrielli's in Los Angeles CA.

After the Coffmans exhaust, I added some comforts. H&B crash bars and cargo rack, tankbag, windshield, and kickstand pad. This was a point in my learning before I really knew what to want. All I wanted to do was ride. (That part hasn't really changed)

Here's the ol' boy the day I brought him home. I remember the stock exhaust was Soo quiet that I couldn't hear the bike while riding it. Admittedly, I was still getting my bearings and more worried about traffic but, the toaster was the first thing to go.

One year with this bike and ive barely scratched the surface. I'm late to the two-wheeled party but I'm glad that I waited. I'm patient now. I appreciate it more than I would have in my 20s. I maintain a healthy fear of my fellow Angelinos. (They are the stuff of nightmares)
