RE: Nemo's 14 Black One
Need to write all this down before I forget. To the best of my recollection and in sort of chronological order, the transformation has happened as follows:

- Bike came with Dart Flyscreen (now gone).
- Tank's lawyer stickers: gone
- License plate DIY bracket kit made of 0.25" thick kydex, old faux carbon fiber license plate frame and nice allen head stainless bolts.
- Chrome valve stem caps
- RLETs
- Tank Slapper
- Fork reflectors gone. Reflectors replaced by black reflective tape on wheels
- Knurled aluminum oil cap by ZRF
- ProGrip 719s
- Under-seat USB port
- Puerto Rico $0.25 mod
- Replaced peg feelers with allen head cap screws
- K&N Air Filter
- Moriwaki Frame Sliders
- Sargent's dished and widened seat, contrasting insert and red double stitched.
- Arrow slip-on

To be continued...

RE: Nemo's 14 Black One
This is how it looked last Sunday Sad
   

But it's making very slow progress...

Has new bars (Renthal Street Medium) and Triumph Scrambler lollipops
   
   

Has new rear turn signals (still have to do the front)
   

And new headlight bulb
   

Today it got an O2 sensor eliminator plug, mainly because I really don't want to have to reinstall the sensor.
   

Fenders, headlight brackets and exhaust system are getting a treatment. Hopefully will be ready on Friday. This is not a cheap hobby, but then again, none really are.

Stay tuned...
Cool

Looking good Nemo. Ready for the ride to Bland?

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

Nemo, would you place a financial burden on a poor retried old man? LOL
