  1. They can be ordered new from Honda color matched for about $25.00 COVER, L. *NH463M* (DARKNESS BLACK METALLIC) 88125-MAT-000ZN $23.11 2003 model Thanks John, I'll do that. What do you have?
  2. My #2 XX needs a LH Black mirror. Anyone have a good looking black LH mirror? How about the shell only?
  3. After I bought the new fairing stay for my #2 XX, I compared the two stays side by side. I think I could return the bent one to it's original glory with very little work using the replacement OEM stay to match. Too big of a hurry and not worth 89 bucks for the effort. A guy like Stan could build a jig, collect free bent stays, correct them and turn a profit Worldwide. When I retire, I might do this. By then, the stays could be upwards of $500. Kinda like guns huh? There will still be thousands of XX's still running the roads. Yes, I now have a retirement plan.
  4. Does this jacket have an inside large wallet size pocket? Teknic Phantom sz 46. - $50 I like to have a jacket that can carry many differant sized wallets. Most of my wallets are filled with receipts any where from 115 to 147gr each. This is an important feature to any jacket. Any inside pics of the jacket?
  5. I bought a new fairing stay for my 98XX about six months ago from Bike Bandit. Think I paid about 89 bucks. http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycl...151425#sch96553
  6. Someone should buy these. They are top of the "cool". If I wouldn't have bought the Yosh cans for the #2 XX, I would be all over this.
  7. Thanks for the feedback. I want to keep my hard line. I called a local Industrial hose supply and they said that they have two guys with DOT certificates. They will cut and weld the hard line. They also build SS brake line hoses in choice of colors. I installed the Beetle Bags and changed all the fairings first. Should have installed the LSL bars first. DOH! Thanks again. Cal
  8. Aluminum cuts really fast with a plasma arc. Practice, practice, practice.
  9. I didn't know the clutch hose could be unscrewed from the hard line. It is crimped on there. Are you sure? Thanks for the info. I will call them. edit: I just talked to Brooks @ Mesa hose in Ca. He said they would cut the hard line, weld a fitting and extend the hose with banjo fitting for $45. Doesn't unscrew. No "do it yourself kit".
  10. I'm installing the LSL bars on my #2 XX. The brake line will be easy to extend/replace. The clutch line will be the challenge. I'm thinking it needs to be about (4) inches longer. Any of you installed the LSL bars? What did you do about the clutch line? Did you have one made? New hose the entire length? Re-bend the hard line near the front? Is it possible to have the rubber portion up front extended on the hard line? I've had these Z3 bars on my #1 XX for a decade. I re-bent the clutch line and it worked, The LSL bars are wider than the Z3. I have my doubts. Felt the need to ask the collective.
  11. John, I saw them on Kiwimacs bike @ the 09 NeXXt meet. I want to buy (2) sets of these. Can you get them?
  12. Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't the Red XX the most desirable? I think this could be a collectors item.
  13. Barry did you tighten the adjuster in a counter-clockwise rotation? This is important!
  14. USPS money order. Keeps everyone honest. His money is transferred/locked in and you must comply. If the seller does not, a fraud report can be filed. Feds would be involved. Don't want that. No problems. I like USPS money orders. Have bought many firearms this way.
  15. Possibly the best looking sportbike ever made!,
  16. Good luck with your search. Finding XX plastic in excellent shape is getting tougher everyday. I am taking a chance on chinese aftermarket. Getting it painted to match will be another cost to consider. OEM plastic is very expensive. This has helped me decide on custom paint.
  17. If the seller lists the method of Payment as USPS mo only, receives the money order, takes it to the Bank and funds are transferred, why would the seller worry? Ship the product, deal done. It really is that simple. Bought many items this way. Why would anyone ship anything without funds transferred? I don't get it? You haven't bought many high dollar items online have you?
  18. https://www.usps.com/shop/accepting-money-orders.htm? Really? I think counterfeiting is a Fed offense? Only the stupid should fuk with the Post Master. just sayin, imho, I think it's almost as secure as cash.
  19. Pay-Pal is secure but, imho, the best way to transfer monies is a USPS money order. Nobody fuks with the Post Master. The buyer must buy the money order, no problem there. If the product is misrepresented, the buyer has a recourse. Keeps all honest. I have bought many guns this way without any dispute. Keeps the seller and the buyer honest -- always !! Never employ a fourth party.
  20. off topic question ---- The flat black looks good. Did you have it painted or is this aftermarket body work? (I'm searching for good aftermarket body work?) Back to regular programming.
  21. Charlie, to answer your question, I bought an additional 98XX. Cosmetically damaged. 21K miles. Titanium bags fit the two-tone theme on my #1 98XX. PM offer sent.
  22. Charlie, the XX looks great!! As others have said, it's set-up well. Many high-end components. Good luck with the sale. If you decide to sell parts, dibs on the Beatle Bags. (I bought another XX)
