Thanks for the pics even though it makes the pain of not riding that much more acute.

Love the red! BigHoss, surely you must have more pics of this beaut?!?!
What shade of red is that? Looks to be very similar to my old '99 Viffer.

When you die, if you get a choice between going to regular heaven or pie heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick, but if not…mmmmm, boy!

Thanks for the compliment CDN. The color is actually Ducati Red. I bored with a bike that matched every other XX and thought the Duc Red was just what it needed, turns out it was a good choice though I was not totally sure. The few accents set nice. The chrome Maui Built decal just looked great on it and the HMW decal was to poke fun at the Beemer crowd, it's been fun to be sure riding the XX into the BMW dealers lot, very few people recognize it as a Honda XX.
I'll post a few more pics when I get on my other puter.

No, you do not.
Something must be different on my bike because both cables are chaffing and will have to be replaced with ones that are about an inch or so longer.

The stock XX forks need major work and even then, they are merely adequate at best.
I swapped in a set of Busa forks and triple trees. New springs and lighter oil really makes them perfect for the XX.
Also, better brakes and lighter weight are added benefits.

Great job on the creativity of the front end as the bird looks great.
