VN900 Reviews in Ride Metric

[SirWilhelm]

Not tooting the horn too loud but Team Lopez and three of us in the forums submitted reviews of our bikes to the "Ride Metric" Magazine and they were published this week. On the newstands now.

Yes it is.
Now I need to find the pictures of the trim to put around the tank (chrome). Was that yours?

Its truck door trim. It comes in a roll. You'll need 1 roll for each. the tank and each fender if you want to do all 3. I got it at auto zone or one of those anyways. It was about 6 bucks per roll. Its a U shaped piece of chrome plasitc with tape in the center. Dont make the mistake to buy molding like I did. Doesn't stay on as well. on the front fender I also hid the joint in the resess of the fender by the fork. Hard to notice unless you know to look there. Get as much wax off as you can too before you put it on.

This pic is the one they were supposed to use in the mag....

Congrats on getting in the mag. I'll have to stop at the magazine stand.

Hey Relli, you get to buy all the bling, we just get to write about it!

Thanks for showing us the light (both real and figuritively) in what to add on. Almost 500 mile trip last week and with a sheep skin on the seat it was very comfortable to ride. I still love it. I thought after the trip I might have worn off the fondness but it's even more now.
You get to do the review at a year old on how much you/we still like the model.
Ride on, ya'll.
