Back to the shop at 100 miles

[macshooter]

Got all my stuff from Corbin bolted on the thing and went out today to do a shakedown and see if I could get some good pics of the stuff. Well the check engine light came on and I took it back to the shop. Threw a code for the gear position indicator. It doesn't work at least about half the time I put the bike in neutral. No big deal, as I can feel my way in an out of neutral without the light. But I'm glad the computer is catching stuff like this, I thought I would just have to live with it. (also glad it wasn't something worse, the bike is still brand new!!!)

Well I didn't get good pics. But here's something for now to show what the Corbin bags and fairing look like on a matte black 2013 roadster. The Hwy bars/engine guards are Triumph, as are the adjustable mounts and pegs. I had them powder coated flat black. I left the tops of the pegs chrome. I think it came out nice that way. Very comfortable on the highway.

I'll try to get some better pics later, but you get the idea. Pretty good, you get the best of both worlds (R3T and R3R) like this.

Very nice!

Wish I'd spent the coin for the sme setup rather than getting the leather bags and windshield.

Ain't cheap, and I don't like to think about it... But I'm happy with the result. There were some minor fitment issues, but nothing to get upset about. I took me several hours to put that stuff on. Things are real tight up front.

On my C109r, I spent about $100 on some canvas bags that you velcro together and throw over the fender, then put the rear pillion over. Bag racks keep them from touching the wheel, but they sag and look like crap after a while. Functional, but I didn't like the look, and just wasn't going to spend the money on something else, when those bags worked just fine.

Well this time I wanted it to look right. It looks pretty good I think. But this fiberglass stuff better hold up or I'm gonna be really pissed. More info and pics to come later.

Wow! i'm really liking what you've done. I like my bike naked, but yours might convince me otherwise..Beautiful Roadster

I'm not much for an all black (matte or gloss) bike but putting the pieces all together like that makes it look good overall. I hope it gives you many miles of riding pleasure.

...and the racing stripes set it off pretty well also.

The neutral light also called the idiot light as only an idiot would not ride a bike without it.

Mabey continue the stripes up the fairing?

Mabey continue the stripes up the fairing?

My thought exactly that and the Corbin DualTour seat with White welting and she would be set

What did the Corbin screen and bags cost you .. if you don't mind me asking. I know Corbin stuffs not cheap but just curious .
