Looks good man. I like the lights you put on the rear. Is that custom, or did you buy a kit for that?

what lights would that be the tails, or the license plate, both are custom fitted and the undertail is from brazil, and no hot chicks did not deliver it :sad:

but the break lights i made a bracket for and the plate light i drilled a hole in the undertail and mounted a 20$ led license plate light
:cheers:

woooh nice bike man. I luv that black color. I also got my gs a couple of weeks ago and am also from nyc. Lets race sometime :)

You use wd-40 on your chain? do you just spray and leave it? cause thats what i did today.. just sprayed it on the chain so the rust can come out...

Damn, that IS cheap. I guessed 89 because of the clip-ons.
