Much tighter fit than the 2000 model year! I swear if I didnt have the 2000 kit sittng on the bench in the garage, I would have "needlessly" called Muzzys and looked like a blathering idiot (or at least more of one...lol)
I had to space out the top mount some with some washers. It was a little close to the steering stem nut!

So,
Are you selling the 2000 kit that's sitting on your bench???

After I installed mine, the bike felt more planted.
I think the next upgrade should be the rear shock!

How much did you pay for your dampener Dave? Where did you get it from?

Tanbk bag? What is that for...to hold all your makeup?? lol
I would caution you against wearing a skirt while riding, it could get blown up by the wind and everyone will see your undies...hehe
Tank Bag????? YES
You'll be able to use a tank bag as long as it fits in your tail section or backpack...lol

When I ride, it's usually for a whole day, so I put all my crap in there. hat, cell phone, digicam, clear visor for when I ride home in the dark, Vanson vest for when it's cold and chilly in the mountains and I only have my skirt and a bottle of h20.
So, would the answer be yes or no?
