Not my look to be honest but I never liked the look of the HD Lower Rider ST and that batwing shown is similar. I think I've seen the Classic windscreen on a Roctane and it looked good to me.

Nice job. I've done similar on my Classic with Memphis Shades lowers which helped immensely with the wind from the bottom and crash bars as well.

I've wondered if those would fit on the B. I have them on my Classic and they're great.

Did you install yourself?

You know that thought occurred to me last week but to California instead of Florida for the nicer roads and views ... bike rentals aren't cheap over at eagleriders. Add the cost of the flight & accommodations and it was more than I'd like to spend.

Yep, ain't that the truth.

Nice ... i sometimes wonder how much better it'd sound to my ears if the exhaust sound on my Freedom Performance pipes weren't exiting so far back on the bike. What modifications did you need to make on those pipes to get them to fit?

At $4 a piece or some other crazy amount.

I'm the same. Now my 2012 Triumph Thunderbird, THAT is a reach.

From Visordown: "The suspension has been adjusted to help make the 2025 R18 more comfortable on the road, with new spring and damping rates within the rear shock absorber. The changes match the new rear wheel size, with 180/55 being the new rear tyre size for the standard bike."

I believe it depends on the year. If I recall correctly, I saw a BMW Motarrad YT video on the 2025 models where they specifically mentioned the rear suspension being more comfortable.

^ Probably my favourite colour. Beautiful.

Nice. Let us know how it works.

I just wish they'd have not made it so jumpy/quick ... trying to reverse and turn at the same time is extra tricky.

Agree on both counts - the seat itself is miles ahead of the stock one and the backrest is crucial if you do long rides.
