Post by: Aedin on August 04, 2010, 02:41:08 AM
Hey Guys, Im new to gstwins and i thought i would share some info about myself so you guys can get to know me.
Im 22 yrs old, i have a 2004 Yellow/black GS500F, BUT im a harley davidson Lover (cant wait to get my unrestricted lisence) my fav harley is the V-rod and Dyna Wide Glide.
Im 100% Home Grown Aussie (NOT made in china).
Im covered in tats, im addicted. i got both arms, chest and back totally covered. also have " Lest we forget " down the back of my left leg.
Im currently half way through doing mods to the bike,
Mods Ive done and currently doing:
- Exhaust (Delkelvic, GSXR600 Slip-on exhaust - I actually welded it on)
- Flush Mount blinkers for the front. (should recieve these tomoz)
- LED Integrated tail light.(should recieve these tomoz)
- Painted the windshield Black.
- Cut the mud flap off the back.
- Yellow Pin Stripe around the rims.

Im still looking for more mods i can do. not sure what other cosmetic mods are available.
i came off my bike about 10 months ago, done a bit of damage, ill put a list of damage below.

Damage to the bike:
- Right hand fairing stuffed. (replaced)
- Right hand mirror snapped.(replaced)
- Right Hand Indicator Snapped.(replaced)
- Damage to right side of front fairing.(painted)
- Engine/Pickups Cover smashed. (replaced)
- Exhaust dented bad. (replaced)

I have repaired Pretty much everything, i decided to stop being lazy and i actually painted the scuff marks to the front fairing today.
Here are some pics of the damage i done to the bike, and to myself. luckily the only damage i done to myself was damage to my knee.
