Very nice! I like the black. Know what would look good now? Silver levers instead of black.

Mo $. Lol

Now ferret, you know he said he is not going to spend money on this bike

I know popgun..he's such a tightwad.

The black forks look great! With the high pipe and TKC80s, it's very scrambler. I think Motorrad would sell a few scrambler if they built them.

Oh man, that adjuster came out right on the exhaust. That ain't gonna be useful. And you got more gold bits! WTH!


Can you spin that around so the adjustment is on the right side like the stock unit?

I wish ACK would just stop posting about that bike---he's making me want one!!

The stock exhaust was a low pipe, with a high pipe that's how it goes. It's common on set-ups like these and the under seat type.
It's not to bad and it does only mount one way.

I had no choice on colors. The forks and shock only come this way. I was thinking black spring on the shock but went yellow.

Sorry POP,
I was typing while you were.
I'm done with this one so my next post should be a while...............
The rumor is 2015 will end the 9T production a year earlier then planned.

That proximity of the exhaust to the shock reservoir cannot be good for the shock fluid I would think. Maybe some reflective insulation?

Is the bike not selling well resulting in production terminations?

Your right, a remote reservoir would be ideal. I'll keep an eye on the riding temps and see how hot the shock gets.

BMW used a left over motor and trans in this model and figured enough spares through 2016. They been selling to fast to last that long so next year may be it.
