Classic V-Dubya: to answer your question. In my daughters case they gave her the two cans off her new Iron 883 she had replaced while it was at the dealer being rolled it out to my trailer. She still has them and was going to sell them but told her no. My position was ride it for a couple of years and see if that level of auditory abuse gets old. If it does you're set. Bolt on the stock cans. If not, put them up for sale.
Ferret: No sure why you think that's a bad dream. For the past two nights since buying the Harley XR1200 I've been having the same nightmare. I'm in this circular store that's laid out like the cemetery in the closing scene from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. I look eerily like Tuco (Eli Wallach) and I'm running from rack to rack looking for the perfect bandana, or maybe it was a t-shirt. FREAKY stuff!
CB is in slot one. It gets used the most and is easiest to wheel in and out of there. The XR now resting quietly in slot 2. It will see occasional weekend use for 50-100 mile romps through the mountains. The Guzzi V7R is on the training table on injured reserve waiting for me to have some free time to transport it to a reputable Guzzi doctor.
