Oh yeah, I straightened the handguards out since those pictures. I had to lower the brake side to clear the hydraulic brake switch I added and I forgot to lower the clutch side when I took the pics. I also changed the front tire for a DOT Scorpion XC and the spooned on a DOT trials tire on the rear. I got both tires for free and the trials is a just a cheapo Shinko or something, but figured I would try it for free  :D .

Looks good Coop, LED is the way to go. Just get one of these.

Did your brother ever make that move to Florida?
I got a call about my RM8 from a guy that just moved to Naples from Pennsylvania.
If a pair of 2" brass balls isn't working, I doubt that the 3" model will make much difference.

No, after I sold that KX60 because they sold everything they owned and were "100% moving" they decided to stay in PA  :( . The house they are in now the owner offered to sell to them at a very good price so now they are staying in Pa.

You need to save that picture at photobucket or something, hotlinking is a big no-no with many sites and servers  ;D .

Ah, you saw it now, that's what matters, if it gets pulled later, oh well.
Glad to hear your brother got a break. 8)
It was just weird when the guy said that he was from PA. I immediately thought of your KX60 post.
Someone stole his son's 2010 RM85 out of the back of his truck right before they moved down here. I hope he buys it, My daughter looks like an elephant on a tricycle riding it ;D, he and his son are sposed to come up Saturday night after the Jacksonville SuperCross to look at it.

Actually I didn't. It's a big error picture saying hotlinking is illegal. That's how I knew you hotlinked it  ;D ;D ;D

LOL no sweat Myck.

I was expecting it to be a picture of that style of horn. That is actually what I am going to use because it's legal. Really I doubt I will ever use it other than at inspections so I am fine with that. Plus it's a good conversation piece  :) .

Lol,as I was scrolling down through your pics I got to the one with the squigly blocking your plate and thought-wtf is hanging off the back?-then I realized what it was  ;D looks good  8)
I'd rather a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

LOL I am not sure why I blocked the plate off like that. I don't usually do that. Thanks though.
