LMAO. We're looking an ETA of 8pm tomorrow at Terry's place in Tennessee. It won't be too bad, Dee is with me.

It's not a Honda and it's not red but it does have "BRP" engraved on it front and center. LOL
 
Yeah. We have three motel nights before we get home.
Could have just bought it in.

But most common thieves wont go through the hassle of stealing a puzzle.

Figure I’ll change the picture back to fit the thread. Here’s my ‘14 xrl which came with lotsa goodies in a box. So far I changed oil to synthetic, trimmed down ( and went led )the rear brake light/plate holder. Put smaller blinkers front and back, led headlight, 4gal tank, skid plate, pro taper handle bar, and an Acerbis front fender (maybe not a good idea). Next plan is to upgrade the front sprocket and hand guards .

Any opinion on direct fit hand guards or other upgrades is appreciated. Also it has a k&n air filter but I hear the foam may be better ?

ASPR will be tuning the carb so that’s coming soon

Gotta get muddy to test the fender. Any hard guards that have the bark buster metal guard will be good. Help save your levers! How's the headlight in the dark? 1681 has lotsa deer.

I use bark busters on mine, i love the look of them and they're fairly functional in the winter when you need some wind deflection too.

How do you like the 4 gallon tank? I want one, but I don't want to mess up my wheelies with the weight.

50 years old and talking about wheelies... there's something wrong with that huh? LOL!

So far I like the 4gal tank. I didn’t want to put too much weight up high with a bigger tank but felt I needed more range. I’m 51 and pushing it home would ruin the cool factor. I can still get the front end off the ground pretty easy, maybe the big plastic tank vs. the small metal tank evens out
 
AWESOME!!!! Love the picture! Haha! I don't feel nearly as bad now. My daughter told me "Dad, seriously, there's something wrong with you, noone else dad or granddad rides wheelies"! Haha! Now i can tell her she's fibbing! LOL!
Here's a picture of my handguards. along with JNS headlight.

if i can figure out how to attach...Bike barkbusters.jpg
