How likely is it - and how much work - if you also did one for the standard CB and / or the EX ? Not how mine is yet, I'm in process of making it as the Drawing (more or less). I had about six hours invested in this, so not too much time.
Let me play around with a more "stock" Drawing for a Standard and/or EX and see what I can come up with...

At what point do you draw on the RLETS? I tried, and tried, got frustrated and give up. Man they are hard to get on. Hehehe...
You know I spent a half an hour the other night searching this forum to figure out what RLET stood for. That should be some right of passage on this forum, if you are serious about being here, figure out what this means.

Olde school - just like the CB1100. Perfect blend of spirit. (woo, ya) Thx GO! I've been trying to decide how far I wanna go with the whole cafe thing...I'm leaning more towards the conservative side so as not to lose too much in comfort, rideability and functionality. I'll most likely change my mind on things a hundred times before finishing the project. I tried, and tried, got frustrated and give up. Man they are hard to get on. Hehehe...

That is really cool. really cool Phadreus. What a neat talent to have.

So do we know who actually came up with the term RLET? Was it on this Forum?
With some simple Filtering, we could even make it look more like an old Blue Print.

Mark, when the CB1100 appeared in the US in 2013 and the Ferret was one of the first to have one, he had RLETs installed and spoke about it on the forum. Others saw the wisdom of his style choice and followed suit. Me included. I think [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2491]my report on their installation gave rise to the term RLET.
More importantly, though, I’m in awe of your drawing. Unlike Lord Popgun, I can’t draw a circle.
