          There are some absolutely stunning motorcycle posted on here!

          I’ve been riding for about 15 years in and off. After a long hiatus I’m back and just picked up a low rider s. Still a lot that needs done to it but slowly getting there.

            Nice one. You go the club style route with the S?

                I did!

                Now to order more parts. I’d like to do some 8” risers and pipes/tune. The 117 is a torque monster and I can’t wait to let her breathe more!

                  That is a beautiful bike! Did you have the paint done custom or do it yourself?

                    Yeah I can only imagine the torque of the 117. Haven’t tried the 117 myself yet, but definitely will do next season.

                      Yes, paint is custom. I have zero talent for this haha. The rest is mainly done by myself.

                        I wanted a blue bike but nothing called to me like the low rider.

                        I may have to have it painted. Would love to have it done in something similar to BMW’s Frozen Portimao Blue Metallic. Something similar to this…I was a dumb man for selling this car lol

                          I love the color but am not a fan of matte paints, but this mainly since I have been detailing cars/bikes as a side job and matte paints are basically not polishable…

                            Polish is definitely a no go but there’s a few companies that make some great products for matte finishes. I’ve used Dr. Beasleys in the past and it’s done wonderfully.

                              My favorite pipes I’ve ever had on any bike is the V&H 2-1 Pro Pipe. It gives the majority of the power increase in the middle of the power band,where we tend to do most of our riding. The sound is awesome.

                                Now my helmet is made in Japan too 😉 if you’re considering a Shoei, they are 100% worth the money. Night and day compared to my last helmet.

                                  @Choko Very nice helmet and definitely worth it!!  Someone once explained to me that the top helmets may be expensive, but how much is it worth to you for the thing it’s protecting…?

                                    @Choko Actually picked myself up a Shoei over Christmas (glamster) and I can 100% agree, chalk and cheese compared to other helmets I've owned

                                      I too have a Glamster but rarely wear it. I prefer open face helmets. Mainly wearing when cold or I have long highway rides. It is however the best fitting helmet. I do as well habe the JO open face helmet which is really nice too.

                                          @Ross yeah man I love the glamster! But they’re not for sale in the US. All I’ve seen is overpriced ones on eBay

                                            @Dmart absolutely, I really got it as a crap weather helmet (which is a lot of the time here in the UK haha). I've been looking at open face helmets for the summer but never owned one, any recommendations?

                                            @Choko is it not? how odd
