    Few up grades to my 1100e

    Finally had the steel braided brake lines installed front and back. New brake pads too. I have never liked the stock bars (little high and narrow for my liking) so I purchased some gold (I like gold) Renthal low bars. New grips too.

            Nice bike.
            It seems the the mighty E just gets better and better.

            So glad I brought one, very under estimated... great bike.

            Love the Blue.

            New bikes are so boring to me.

                Very nice bike Those E's are just classic, the lines, the look, they are just bad ass big block, tough guy looking! IMO
                Also like your tag line.

                    Thanks everyone.
                    And thanks to you Joe..as the black powder coated rims, Lockhart oil cooler, Sonic fork springs and braided lines all came from you.

                    Hope you guys don't mind a couple of more pics




                    And the Marzocchi shocks came from Grand Rouge.

                    I guess you could say I could'nt have put it together with out GSR. Thanks GSR!

                              Looking Good for sure

                              Nice upgrades, Trevor.

                              Trevor, how much lower, wider, back space etc. would you estimate the Renthol bars to be?

                              Brake lines look great. Nicely 'dressed.' What grommets did you use to fit them into the fender bracket?

                              And those shocks......look great. Good ride / control?
