I found this after a 100+ mile ride this weekend. Just thought I should post some pictures. No damage to under tail or my new tire and it was easily cleaned up. I think this was caused from having more weight than usual. My girl was riding on the back this weekend. But if you are heavy then it could be a regular problem.

The under tail eliminator on an X1 only needs to go forward to the bungee slots on the trunk.

That's why the back side of the oil tank is curved and not flat .

She rides the Duce when we have event rides. But the Duce is down for parts being sent to get chromed. This might be a good excuse for her not to ride on the back of the X1. Yeah right, who am I kidding she always gets her way. (Or I don't get any! )

Froggy - I'm 5'9 and 145lbs (wet)!

Lee - I have the preload set for just me on the bike. I don't have the spanner wrench to adjust the shock. Do you know where I can get one?
