Welcome to the forum. You are wise. Don't do what I did, spend the money and go directly to the Horizon ST bars from helibars. You'll never look back.

thanks for the warm welcome... the bike came with some goodies, it has a GPS, trunk, Corbin seat, Service manual, DVDs that show how to do most of the services 4 keys, and the best of all it had a 5k price tag.  I got it with less than 17k miles. 

I added a Vstream windshield, I have a new set of Pilot road 4's ready to be installed, I also a added some risers and wedges but I still need more pull back to be able to lean back to the seat. 

over all I'm very pleased with the bike.   8)

Mojoh, Demon, concoursbdh; I'm on the North side.
I have a friend (also in Houston) planning a ride before the end of the year.
May be a 2 day loop, (backroads) leaving from Houston.

Nothing firm yet, as he's still laying out a route.

If your interested in riding with us,,, send me a PM.

Ride safe, Ted
