Default No passengers please...

New Rule of my bike.

NO PASSENGERS!
(since i no longer have the need for them)



Taking off ALL un-needed parts the list so far:
Centre-stand,Passenger pegs, Mirrors, Fairing stays/mounts.

The centre stand went cuz I don't really use it and it was ugly.
the passenger pegs went cuz I'm never going to take ANYONE for a ride on it.
Mirrors went with the fairing stay.

Next Purchases are:
New bar-end mirrors,"new" triple tree/DB bars, New grips, and once i get a job(hopeful I got the job at ask) SS Break lines And an Airtech SuperSport tail (sidecovers, Rear and Solo cover moulded as one) Once i get the SS tail I'm repainting it Matte black with a Neon green stripe fallowing the body lines....I would do a Rough Shoop but Linux+PSP9=No workies

I have the pegs off of mine, and the seat covered with a cowl.

On certain bikes, passengers suck! Mine included.

I can attest after the one time I rode pillon on the 250 that passengers are no fun on that bike. That was the most frightening 5 minutes of my life.

Passengers are for cruisers, not sport bikes. All the passenger shit came off my R6 as soon as I got it. Will do the same if I get another sport bike. Still haven't completely decided on what style to get.

So what happens when you are cruising down the hwy and there's Megan Fox on the side of the highway with the hood up on her car asking for a ride up to the next exit and you have no passenger pegs?
