    your vl is listed as a bagger? I assume you have attached hard bags to it then. You should re-route the exhausts so one pipe sits under each bag. No circular mufflers but rectangular, that would look bad ass.

    Get a batwing fairing off the next, there are generic fit ones available or maybe a wrecked harley one?

    Baggers are awesome!

    fair enough, makes it easy to handle though
    Getting another Lifan?

    How was the trip?
    Fun, but too short. Wish I could've rented a HD and rode around Santa Monica. We did however get a convertible to drive around in, so that was pretty sweet with the sun out and all... Hopefully get to go again next year, if can convince my boss...

    Its weight saving, having thin metal, makes the bike go faster
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    im going to try get it fixed, if the frame is bent it might be better to get a new one but i think its going to be ok.

    the intruder being too light means that it gets blown to fuck if you go anywhere with so much as a light breaze and im an all weather rider

    I had a bad expereince with a SIDSYM when riding the bus lane on Gt North. Not a scratch on myself or the bike, but bikes in bus lanes is an accident looking for a place.

    I assume she was looking for a bus in the bus lane and didn't see one, so she pulled out right in front of me.

    I avoid them like the plague!

    Weight of the bike has bugger all to do with riding in windy conditions.

    I personally dont have trouble with light bikes in wind, I dont really mind wind at all. You just have to adjust to ride with it.

    Only danger I feel is doing a sharp corner at speed with heavy cross winds.....in the end strong winds = MEH!.
