We may use them if we're taking a longer ride, but prefer the look and 'feel' without them for local rides.looking really close at the top and second pictures and that wind screen sure looks like mine. Never could find what make it was but it looks like my mounting brackets too. Mine just got re powder coated so will look good once more.

We're thinking there's a couple of tools here that weren't part of the original kit, yes?

Hubby went to MD and saw Princess before we made the deal on her. We tried to get out to AZ to see Blue, but plans fell through.Looks like you spent a LOT of money for a TOOL BOX>..... Good thing you got some other COOL STUFF with it FREE....
Seriously though, I love the blue as well. And this means YOU GOT YOUR OWN BIKE TOO!... No more sharing??? You two will be quite pair now.
:-) No more sharing!!! And we swapped tail light lenses already...he had put the blue dot on Princess and I was less than pleased, like 'em for him but just not my thing. Now Blue has proof that she's 'his' lol !
Question: I've thought about buying one long distance too, and shipping, but I'm scared to death to buy one with putting eyeballs on it. Everybody out there is not going to be as nice as 2beers.... So what did you do to make sure the bike was good before you sent the money??
This particular seller was very easy to work with, providing pictures, history, and service reports. He even offered, and then took the bike to a local dealer the day before shipment for a complete inspection, at his own cost, to protect against shipping issues. He has a business with a website, so it made his 'reputation' very transparent. Additionally, he's a member of a bike club in his area, and we were able to verify other things he told us about prior to making the deal. He appeared to be honest, but how many times can that be deceiving?
Having it go through as an E-Bay sale gave us some buyer protection, and him assurance that he'd get paid. The price was good, but ultimately we know we took a chance. Do we recommend it? Well, only if you have a 'feel' for it that it's right.
Plus, my fortune cookie the night we put the offer in said 'you'll continue to take chances, and be glad that you did'. I'd laugh about that, but I'm not making it up!!!

As for lights, I have in the past 3 years only seen one set in black for sale and poof they were gone before I could even think about it, but I did find a set of 1500 lights and bracket that had been sitting around the local bike shop and got them on a deal, had them powder coated and bingo off you go........
