Road Comet installed...
#1



Well, it was a bit trickier than I thought, but I think I sorted it out. Fired it up and took it for a quick spin to about 60mph and didn't detect any buzzing or vibration. I'll take it on the freeway tomorrow and test it up to 80+mph.

I have been meaning to ask you where you bought the stick on vinyl ? I need to re-paint the trunk seat on my Interceptor and the stripes are vinyl.

Your CB looks fantastic, Rob. Everything complements each other accessory perfectly. Dare I ask if your done now? Dodgy

Ha ha. Thank you, Ron. That's the million dollar question, isn't it? The answer is ALMOST.

I have yet to install the Honda type II bars that have been sitting around for a while. Also, a friend of mine gave me a good idea. He suggested that I powder coat the passenger foot-peg brackets black to further clean up the lines of my bike. I like that idea!

Other than that, I think I'm done!
Oh, And I plan to send out the ECU to Guhl for flashing.
