nice bike. :cool:

i hope you get rid of that rear fender soon though. :wink:

i'd like to know how an I-3 sportbike feels. ...and also, a twin sportbike like the ducati.

only ones i've ridden are I-4s, and whatever engine the rebel and the GZ250 has.

I'm guessing from the file name it's a Daytona? (weird message about the pic)

If you are looking at FE's for it check out SPR's FE. Awesome design and engineering.

ahhh yes.. the license plate/turnsignal disaster hanging off the rear.

thought you meant the mud fender on the rear tire.

Yes I want to swap that out as soon as I can find something... dunno who makes anything that will work....

SPR FE?

i have no idea what that means :P

Well if you are part of Triumph675.net just do a search for it. It's the best looking FE I've found so far that includes a license plate light and signals.

You need photobucket or something I can't see anything of your pic.
