...... weather that day but cleared up enough to get in about 80 miles on the first run.

One pic shows how nicely they tucked the wire loom up and away after removing the cylinder heat shield.

Also has new Gilles pegs. (not pictured) Love the sharp and grippy edges they provide. Very secure with ball of foot on the outer edge into turns.

Evo tech tidy enroute and I'm not sure what else I might change. It really needs nothing and despite the mirrors not being my favorites; with the speeds I'm carrying on this freak, it's best that I have them for total peripheral awareness.

I really like the new aesthetics and details of the R as much as I appreciated the Tri C when it came out. Both really great examples of taste and style.

The bike is a total F'ing animal.

Congratulations and very nice collection!!!!!

The R is no joke! Sexy as they get!

Thanks for sharing.

You are huge as in muscular. Is that you in the pic?

3k miles already? very very nice.

I'm with you on the mods and the animal thing
Got to lose the antennas though....CRG has some nice bar-end mirrors. I used one on the left side during today's ride and I felt pretty comfortable. I'll install the right one for my next ride to see if its even necessary.

So if you go bar end mirrors; what about directionals? Personally, I'd ditch them.

I may give the CRG's a try...can you post a pic of the left side? Much vibration or not?

I'm not worried about the directionals but there are mirror block offs available that have them incorporated. No vibrations at all.
Here is a pic:

Nice! Please tell me you moved those barriers and did a few top speed runs!

Didn't have to...remember that parkway we terrorized in the RS? That piece of road got a royal beat down!!

Stock bar ends? Looks perfect with the block offs. What's the Viz like with bar end mirrors? Do you have to chicken wing to see them or just glance down?

These ones are the old ones from the 1098.

These would eliminate the chicken wing.
