DeathWish01 · 02-25-2009, 3:02 PM

wow... good luck w/ that... what did someone do, run it into a cager?

pwillman · 02-25-2009, 4:25 PM

nah, van owner desided to hit reverse while standing in red lights...

DeathWish01 · 02-25-2009, 4:54 PM

ouch.... and lemme guess your bike did $0 damage on the van?

pwillman · 02-25-2009, 5:42 PM

yup, hardly even a scratch.... but van's insurance covered it all

XXDAD · 02-25-2009, 8:00 PM

Bellyarmor? The spray foam looking stuff? Someone witll have to clue me in

What is bellyarmor? Is it some type of glue that holds the piece together?

Nutter67 · 02-25-2009, 11:31 PM

Belly Armour is basically the belly pan section of the fairing. Picture your full fairing without side panels and what is left at the bottom is the belly pan or Belly armour.

Like the lights, going for the new Audi look eh? Nice

pacman1 · 05-03-2009, 11:41 PM

Cool! Can't wait for an update.

pwillman · 06-25-2009, 12:33 PM

alright, it has been forever since last update, but the work is taking it's toll and always a bit trip to bike to assembly it.

but finally the assembly started, installed Audiovox CCS-100 Cruise Control to it (photos to follow).
Only problem is to get the tank from the painter, taking some time to get it... last update was on next tuesday to get... untill that it's working and waiting

designed painting is Rising Sun flag to the tank and rest of the bike is black... but photos will be here shortly after I get the painted parts on my hand

dracki · 06-27-2009, 8:24 AM

i've been putting those LED lights in homes for a little while now,never occured to me to put some on the bike,thanks pill man

pwillman · 06-30-2009, 12:26 PM

this sound so darn great... got tank from painter, and it didn't turn out as I planned...
painter screw'd up the painjob, but the situation is still repairable since he left large white around the paintjob so the situation will be done on another painter... but at friday will get the bird humming
