Black wing Posted May 5, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 5, 2013 so i finished the venture finally figured you guys would like to see what 3 months of tinkering leads to. by the time all was said and done there was quite a list of work and parts on it. gas tank stripped and lined new carbs from MasterGuns new fuse panel and accessory panel wiring harness cleaned up any chaffed section removed and replaced new regulator new fuel lines and filter new body work all body screws replaced all new lights (moose lights still need new lenses) new radio with serious satellite new fork seals new main oil seal in final drive rebuilt or replaced brake calipers and pads all around new blinker relay trailer hitch installed class re-soldered and pump cleaned and rebuilt progressive fork springs new spark plug wire and new spark plug boots new exaust pipes theres probably a few things i forgot and a few things i still want to tweak but it looks and sounds great and there is a few shots of my radio install since there is always someone looking for radio upgrades. i modified all the existing hardware so i cal still pull the deck out like i did from factory and looks very slick and non intrusive to the dash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black wing Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted May 5, 2013 its just a basic marine cover i got from the local audio shop there are no real clearance issues, the cover can be opened and closed while riding; but while opening the cover or closing it you have to do it without getting your hand between the top of the cover and the handle bar but is pretty easy. Also to power the radio you have to run a wire from the radio to the battery or an accessory panel if you have one, i'll post pics later of that. but the stock wiring harness cannot deliver adequate power and will constantly shut down and restart the radio. though i am still using the harness to connect to the speakers and ignition wire. also this is a mod for those of you who do not use the cb as the cb amp has to come out for this to fit in.
