    These J&S repro's really are quite good,slotted right into the OEM spots and the wires where long enough to fit.Happy we could get them.Have the fronts to,just have to wait for the next payday to get them

    They definitely do. Guess it's time for the first aesthetic upgrade on my 1150!

    Went this morning for some beauty shots.


    Can't imagine why I need new ones.

    Could have gotten the longer stocked ones but....

    I think these shorter versions look WAY better!

    Where at Kenco to pick up a darker flip screen I ordered for the EXO500 .The wife asked if Ken could get the K&S repro signals I've had my eye on at Part N' More.The answer is yes he can at a very good price toSaves us a TON of hassles.Thirty plus years of UV does a number on the rubber pieces on them.Doubt I could find a a used set in any decent condition for less.

    Thanks Pete it's great to be on the road again!Runs real sweet to.Had some "issues" but nothing serious.The new chain really makes a big improvement on smoothness.Plugged in the heated vest this morning and the new stator kept right up to it.I'm even more happy with it now!

    Finally after far to long SHE RUNS!!!!Took a bit of cranking with the new AGM battery and and trying to bump start it down the hill here.It started with the electric while we where taking a break pushing it back up the hillFeels good to hear it after so long.Do have an issue with the tach,it won't read anything over 2000 RPM.If it doesn't fix itself I guess it's a trip into it's guts.Electronic so it's not a cable issueInsurance goes on tomorrow (Friday) and hopefully I will get to ride soon instead of talking about it!

    Even better in the daylight Pete


    Got some vinyl and fabric paint to redo the grab rail mounts and did the triple cover with it to.The metal piece of the rail was done with appliance epoxy.Should have done them the first time round

    Got the seat today.As soon as I seen this "fabric" I was sold.it's got some grip to it as well,not a lot but it's there.

    Was going to wait till morning but I couldn't.Really like it,the old cover will not ghost though anymore either

    Got a new Dowco cover,my old cover was bought as a dust cover for the SV.Was good for that but with no extra space I need a real cover for at least 1 bike
