Check your local laws, here in ohio that will get you a ticket.

Thanks for the warning.
I checked into it and I have it from a very reliable source that they are legal here in California....so's lane-splitting.

[boxermania]

The system cases and the Givi A750 came with my bike so I will not include. The windscreen is a must in my case......

1) TBR can and cat eliminator
2) Addition of Fiam Air Horns
3) Jet-Hot exhaust (black ceramic coating)
4) Napoleon bar end mirrors
5) Removal of airbox, addition of UNI pods and 3.5 Bar fuel presure regulator from K bike.

10. XM radio for interstate runs

Yes, they are really cheap now. It's nice to have on those highway rides.

Bob - do you use a headset / earplugs to listen to your radio? Or do you have speakers mounted on your beast...er...Beak? If the latter, can you provide some pics of how you mounted the speakers. Thanks
