- March 09, 2014, 20:20:41 PM I have the Mets and really like them. My bike came with the Maxxis and they had a load of tread left on them but were like 10 years old so it was time for a change. The rack looks like one of Ted's and I do not have one because I am running stock 2 up seat, but those racks are not seats and have a weight limit to them, as people will tell you.
Good idea of the other exhaust put your original one away just in case. Same with the air filter cover.
Get lots of miles on it and have fun......
oh and yes figured that was you but had to make the comment you and I must be the youngest lads on this site.....the rest are really old guys,.......heck some of them are in their 50's and even 60's..........really old people.......lol

I've never had them before on any bike, but I may put them on this one. I want to see what the manufacture date is on them because even though they have great tread, they may be too old to be safe. I also like the Metzler ME 880s. The rack is really cool and I'm glad it has it. I'm going to pull off the bags for daily use and only put them on for road trips. I'm thinking of buying another stock exhaust that's already been cut down and de-baffled and having it ceramic coated, the bike rejetted, and powder coating a spare air cleaner black, but that's it other than regular maintenance.
Well it worked out good for you, and so nice to get a picture of your son with the bike.
Yup like I said you have a fender rack on that machine. It all looks really nice, of course just my own personal opinion but needs WW tires on that beast......
let us know what other changes you plan....congrats to you.
Oh and that's not my son - that's me! LOL

- March 09, 2014, 18:50:02 PMAs some of you may have noticed, I restarted my search for a Drifter in earnest last week. Apparently the stars aligned perfectly, and I found the perfect bike in Las Vegas Tuesday, made a deal over the phone, transferred the money, arranged shipping, and had it delivered this afternoon! It's one of the smoothest and easiest deals I've done (isn't that when you know it's right?), and I'm super excited. Even though it snowed pretty good here Friday night, it was 72 this afternoon so I went for a quick ride. I'll probably be rejetting it soon and do some exhaust mods, but it's pretty much ready to go. Can't wait for the riding season to really get going! As per usual in the interwebs, it ain't real without pics so here is the evidence:
