Some fine modifications you've made Rapid Dog! Those cooler screens set you back much? I think they give a good clean look.

I think I paid under $20 to that fella on e-bay.
Do a search here if you're interested. Some guys made their own.

ZAP!
Yep, had them drop it in when the warrantee work was done on the windshield.
Now I'll never have to worry about my bank of indicator lights, citizens band radio, or my electric gyro hot drink holder!

Hey Rapid.... who's peg lowering kit did you use? How were they to put on? I seem to be making an RS out of my S. God forbid I do something the cheap way!
 Ride Safe!

As far as the whip antenna... Iowa requires them on snowmobiles and mopeds. With a little plastic triangular pennant in International Orange. That's a good use.
ps: just kidding!

It's not geritol, it's sensible. I can put all the barbacks and tall windshields I want on my S; I just rode my KTM dirtbike 90 miles in one stretch thru the cascades; AA rated ttails, from 2000-6500ft, mass swithbacks with hairy dropoffs on one side, real technical stuff....so I earned those barbacks honestly...

RT would be nice...but only room for one classic and one modern bike right now...kkids off to college you know...
I used the Suburban kit Jerry. Simple easy. I put it on in my Seattle apartment parking space with available tools after work one day... By the way, I got mine used-like-new. Only drawback is you'll drag your boots off the peg in a turn if you forget to toe-up...
