Finally a reality (dual-lever controls)
Took 6 months, lots of research, and more money on parts/labor than the bike, but finally a bike to start learning on
Work done: 1in lowering kit custom dual levers (front brake/clutch) quick-shifter (up & down) |

Great looking bike. You got some gear to go along with the bike?

Yes I have gear. I'm in the process of moving apartments right now. Had the bike delivered to the new place, but most of my stuff hasn't moved over yet. I'm still waiting on a couple pieces of armor as well before I test 'er out. Probably will on Sunday when I get back from a quick trip to LA.
I have: - Icon Carbon Fiber Lifeform helmet - Alpinestars Sigma Drystar jacket and pants - Alpinestars Net Air boots - Alpinestars SMX gloves Waiting on: - Forcefield kneepads - Icon Stryker vest - Alpinestars Reflex elbow guards |

Thanks everyone!
@Lazin: Yea, it does. Really not happy to be moving only after 1 year in my current place, but had to do it. Current neighbors adjacent to my bedroom have a loud alarm that starts at 5:30 and they are snooze crazy. It goes off 5-7 times usually. And newer neighbors on the other side feel that playing amplified guitars at 1am in an apartment building in acceptable (they are playing right now *sigh*). Neither is as bad as last year with an asshat who was a floor below me with a huge amplified bass guitar. I literally went crazy having everything in my apartment shake for hours on end 4-5 times a week. |

Yea, the building 100ft across the parking lot in my complex burnt down due to a BBQ last month. Charcoal BBQ on wood balcony, bad idea.

I love the idea behind the dual front levers. I'd like it even more if it were on the left side of the bike lol . They do look pretty awesome though. Great looking bike all around, enjoy the rest of the riding season, it's a blast.
