The badlands are a phenominal ride - and there are alot of good rides up here - but the season is short. We have ridden most of the Western U.S. and almost
all of Canada - and we are hoping to get to a point in our life where we can star riding the Eastern States. If you can make up here - it is well worth the
ride.

Crash:
I think that's the first other T I've seen with what looks like the same bag rails as I have. The previous owner put them on, but I suspect they are Cobras? I need to take some new pictures with a few post-picture additions such as Clearview+3, cobra passenger backrest, highway bars, and extended risers. But here's a link to some pictures from early last year. - Rich http://www.sound-expressions.com/VT1100T/ |

I can't say Rich - I bought the bike used and that is the one extra that it came with. I bolted pretty much everything else on - I have a tinted oversize
Clearview Shield to go on as well. Buying the bike is the cheap part. Look forward to seeing new pics of yours.

Great looking bike, I know your proud of it. I agree, Black is where it's at.

Crash....beautiful bike. Please tell me, are the passenger floorboards angled? They don't look flat. If they're angled how did you do that?

Thanks Al. They are slightly angle ( at my passenger's request - I find it best to keep her happy
 ), but not as much as they appear in the pic. I
changed from Cobra Boulevard floorboards to the Cobra Swept style, I took the old Boulevard brackets and modified them. The trickiest part is to get the paint
looking consistent when one is done cutting, welding and grinding. I might just do the front ones this year, but ever so slightly down.

Crash.....I think that myself and many of the others would like to see more close-ups of those passenger floorboards and how you modified them. Any chance you
could take some more pictures to illustrate how they look?
