Belt covers up next [thumbsup] Maybe I'll get to that this Saturday. I've only been putting off for about 6 or so months. :P

They "hid" everything on the 695--no zip ties on the frame.
Looks nice! [thumbsup] [bacon] [bacon]
Nice work on the sliders... good thinking on the under motor jack! [thumbsup] Got a set for the Back in Black, you have fanned the flames to get them installed. Better to have them and never need them than to need them and not have them. [bang] I repeat the sentiment... hope you never need them. [moto]
Looks great. Unfortunately frame sliders destroyed my R6 at cresson [bang] They dug into the ground and flipped the bike.

I may have told you that the inspiration for the jack was my neighbor's friend who tried something similar without a jack...not pretty, to say the least.

Here at the WareHome, we've been using a scissor jack & a block of wood underneath the motor, whilst the bike is on the lift, for quite some time with tremendous success.
Sweet... Jap bikes on a Ducati board. Nice! [thumbsup] A man after my own heart. [moto] [bacon]

I was thinking about the hugger today. The issue is that when I tried to take off the stock, I stripped out one of the bolts. I'll have to drill it out, I think. I'm on a roll, and that one should be done soon. [thumbsup]

Nope, but it never does.... :P
I tried cutting the radius of the first one with the Dremel after using it for the straights, but I wound up using a saber saw--much cleaner. Other than that, it really came out nicely. [thumbsup]
all that cutting!! the horror!! blasphemy!
j/k man, looks great...and a weight savings! the real question is: are you missing your british mistress?
Lookin' good, CJ [thumbsup]
