Thanks for the love. Had to stop riding it long enough today to put in some new oil and filter (just for my own peace of mind). It is great in the twisties, ready for something a little longer now.

Very nice, I don't remember seeing them in that color, but I like it a lot.
Other than the shield, all stock? The bars look high, or is that stock?
Congrats.

Laminar lip on the shield and bar backs that also raise the bars about an inch. Like the shield not so sure I like the bar backs they feel high, gonna take them off for a while to compare.

Congrats. A great bike for the Ozarks... well, and many other places too. Poured many miles onto one for five+ years. On the short list of favorite bikes, and that gray color with the silver wheels/engine is fine combo. Same color here, but an appearance diff with the moody sky.

South Sound BMW has 'em in stock...about $100 for the set. Saved my ass already. There is a cool rubber boot you can get too. It stretch-fits onto either side in an emergency, say if you go down and crack a cover. They will keep you from loosing all your oil.
Here's a shot after a low speed slide....
