2022

This is a '97 former Washington DC Police fleet bike.

I've made some changes and modifications to serve my particular needs.

 

(1) I installed drag bars, after-market mirrors, and bar-end mirrors.

(2) I added a second set of stock turn signal lights to the front forks. They are wired to a toggle switch on the bars. I run them at night for greater visibility.

(3) The original 6" headlight was replaced with the newer model 7".

(4) The driver's seat was recovered with real leather. I like it, but I probably wouldn't do it again - too much work.

(5) Both sprockets and the chain were replaced (needed). I changed the rear sprocket ratio to give a bit more top speed. I don't miss the trade off in off-the-line torque.

(6) An additional set of after-market turn signal lights were installed at the rear. They are wired to the tag light and are on all the time. The stock signals droop a bit which makes the extra lights easier to be seen.
