Thumbs up
Just bought an 05 Black & Red and found this site at the same time. Impressive on both accounts. Dealer has to put the bike together and it's all mine! Anything I should do up front upon possession (except ride it...it's about 35 here)? *

Replace the windscreen with something useful, like a double-bubble. I'd also get a tank cover so you don't scratch the tank paint.

Welcome and I would recomend a tank pad and not the tank bra. It cover too much pf the paint and lines when a stick on tank pad looks good and does the job!

The kickstand mod is very important to keep it from accidentally tipping over. Welcome aboard!
