And maybe a rear set lata on...who knows. It would just be for aesthetics as I'm not putting her on the track

FWIW, rearsets, while look cool, are much more than aesthetics. I will never take my bike to the track but adding rearsets made the bike much more comfortable on my commute to work.

Oh, and modding is never done when you say its done. Its done when your wallet says its done.

I've never actually added any rear sets on any of my bikes, so I have ZERO knowledge about em. If they actually make the bike have more f a comfortable position, then I need to order them ASAP. Any suggestions?

After a lot of research, I ended up with the Attack Performance rearsets. They look awesome and are totally configurable to whatever position is most comfortable. Plus they can be easily changed to GP shift pattern if I want to try it.

Im sure I wont be the only one to recommend them.

I actually haven't gone in yet for my first service. It's been too wet and rainy for me to take the little lady out. I called Dunbar and they want $300 for the first service. I asked the guy if he was serious and he was dead serious...as a heart attack. I said, thanks but no thanks. I'm gonna head out to worcester and get it done, where I bought the bike. Both North Kingston, RI and Worcester charge $225. Yeah, I don't see Dunbar getting ANY of my business. Cambridge is a bit of a drive just to get the service, plus, who wants to deal with the Big B and traffic. YUCK.
