LEO doesn't screw with you with that plate being where it is?

Where are your turn signals in the back? Very nice looking bike!

Lots of the flair I plan to do to my new XB12Ss...

Things like the bar end mirrors and shorty levers, super clean tail etc...

I want to do an integrated tailight setup and was hoping to do something like you did with the plate, just wondering how badly the cops bust your chops about it.

I would imagine compared to a sport bike they leave buells alone (I was never bothered with my R6, plate was not "legal" but was mounted perpendicular to ground in clear site) for things like that...

Plus if I am going to drop over $200's on an LED tailight assembly I want that plate near hidden to show it off : p.

Have you gotten in trouble for where your tag is located?

Very sharp man.
Bizkit, I believe that's a D&D muffler.

Mine has been there for 12K miles, and have had no issues.

Love the carbon and for some reason those levers really appeal to me.

Great looking bike, the only thing i suggest is painting the lower fairing black instead of the magnesium color. Looks good I really like the bars and levers. What bars are those. I really like them, they look like fat bars but I notice you have the stock clamps. How does this work?

Hey thank you guys for the compliments

The cops have never said anything to me about the plate but it may be different from state to state so don't quote me on that

Exhaust is D&D and the handlebars are Renthal Ultra-Lows from American Sport Bike

So those are just ultra lows are you took the cross bar off? Have you had any problems with them flexing or not being strong enough with the cross bar being off?

Bizkit, there are many threads here about different mufflers. Lots more info then I could possibly share in this thread. I have a race can and a d&d. The d&d just sounds pissed off at idle and really rips under speed. (in a good way.)

Once again Wardamneagle, very nice man.

I had no idea, thank wardamneagle. As far the the rise and pull back of the bars, how do you like the feel?

Feels great to me. I'm 6'3" and all of that height is in my torso so the shorter bars help a lot.
