Gotta get rid of that seat, pull off the windshield, and probably hit up some 12" apes

I've never ridden with apes myself, but I've had alot of people tell me that it is actually a really comfortable ride if you have something the right height for your arm length and riding position.


(of course that could just be trying to justify it b/c they are all the rage in SoCal)

dude that's so bad ass.




I have no garage, very few tools, and extremely limited knowledge of bikes, so unfortunately I will have to rely on friends and try to find a decent shop that won't just fleece me when I want to do some thing.

For now, I think just changing out the seat is something I can handle myself, and I'll buy some bars and have a shop put those on.

then I'll just start figuring out what excess crap I can pull off and still have it run.

I do need to start learning more about shovels...maintenance, etc. so if you can point me in the right direction, or if you know where I can get a manual for cheap I would be in your debt.
