New mods and Daytona

**coacha** · 03-03-2008, 08:03 PM

Here is a slide show of my new mods: Grasshopper backrest, reworked seats, Streble horn, lowers and spacers. I have also included a picture of my wife before our trip to Daytona as well as a pic of me on a Vision and a Rocket III at Daytona.

All in all a great day.

Looking good coacha!

Got the Venture trunk today. Audio, did you use the venture rack to put it on your rack? By that I mean, did you mount it to the Venture tubular rack then to your tour rack? If so, I gotta find a tubular rack or another way to mount it because mine doesn't have one.

No, I mounted mine right to the Wompus rack. Had to put a few shims in to make sure everything "sandwiched" tight together. I used some square washers I had from my rigging supplies that were the right thickness.

Love all the mods but the wife loves the lowers best. I had my two auto body kids in the office today looking at the trunk and they are taking it to the school to start work on it.
