Title: My 500Ri "Vanity" Mods - Just testing pics.

Trying PhotoBucket for the first time ... Be gentle, I'm just learning.

Solved my storage problem.

Anyone curious?

Is my picture too big? ... or OK?

If anyone is interested, I'm ready to post the how and why of my custom side mount frames ... and other mods.
This is about a year overdue, but it's fairly massive, with details - and I've been busy riding.

At 4,000 miles, my stock rear tire was down to the Brillo (!), and I'm enjoying the notorious "Elephant Trumpet" form my CVT.

GIVE ME A CLUE!

Very cool indeed.  I am installing a Givi 450 case this weekend, along with a LED lighting kit from AdMore lighting, which will incorporate running, brake, and turn signals.  I had to call AdMore however in that it seems Givi has just changed the mold on the 450 and the kits need to be modified slightly.  I will add some pictures after I am done.  Like to get those lights up to eye-level with car drivers.

Dave-

How did you get your pictures to load on this site?  I have tried several times with no success.

thanks.

Is the saddlebag mount under the front of the passenger hand grip sandwiched between the plastic bodywork and the hand grip - or did you add a spacer to keep it from crushing the plastic body panel?
