Yup I know what your talking about . I never thought of that I was looking for cylinder truck lug covers . I stopped at a truck rest area in Virginia , but they only had ones with a silhouette chic on the end .... If it's nice this weekend I'll run the bike over to a truck stop about 30 miles from me to see if they have what I'm looking for .

I measured the rear peg mounts on the 800, and they appear to be about 1 1/4 inch OD.  Meaning, a lug nut cover for a 1 1/4 lug nut should fit over it.  Not sure exactly, though- my boards were still mounted and couldn't get an exact measurements.  All I have currently are 1" and 1 1/8", so they won't fit.   I'll see what I can find.

Richie, that had to just drive those Indian guys nuts when you pulled Ma-Deuce over by their trailer!  I mean, look how good she looks there, and for the price of one of their bikes, you could have a small fleet of yours!

AND Richie's is all custom.  After spending all that dough on a new Indian, your still obligated to spend another small fortune on CUSTOMIZING it, and I know accessories for that puppy won't be cheap.   Cuz, you know, we can't ride a STOCK bike.....

I wonder why none of the modern Indian owners realize that there was no "R" in Indian Motocycle?

I also went with the shinkos 777 , GB . Figured between the reviews I have read ,and the price these tires would be more bang for the buck . At least that's what I'm hoping . I picked up the front and rear for $98 each from the shop and $50 for install to include drive shaft fluid change . I won't get this done for a couple weeks , however as I have a million and one other things going on , to include some riding .

What, have I mentioned how much I LOVE a 2-tone paint job??   8)
OH yes sir , I do believe it has been mentioned .... LOL i
Actually, I haven't really decided what color(s) to do the 800 in.  Although, odds are your are right about it somehow ending up 2-tone... ;D  I need to wait until I get the 1500 done to see what comes next.    It will be darned hard to top that MA DEUCE!!!  I'm sure it will be just as charming as MA-Deuce coming from you , brother  ;)

I'll have to say, your custom shop is slower than crap! :o   I hope it's worth the wait when it finally gets done ;D  ;)

Hey NOW wait a cotton picken minute here GB ..... I don't criticize your choice of shops you use  ;) Besides you know what they say , " Rome wasn't built in a day ."  ;D
