Hey everyone, here are the pics of the bullet i finally got delivered to me on Sunday. Pics are as delivered so a detail is in store and just an overall go over of it with all fluids and adjustments etc. As some have read i had the carb off yesterday to clean and check the jetting and i had some slide issues and the throttle grip broke a chunk of plastic where the ball of the cable sits. So i gotta get a new grip to get that squared away and i also have to change the fuel line from petcock to carb as it was hard as hell and had a little split.

Bike details, 07 Classic Iron Lunger with 201 miles! Has the K+N clamp on cone filter with the goldstar exhaust. It also has a nice solo seat and a couple extra chrome goodies here and there. Enjoy!

Damn nice motorcycle!
On the eighth day God created the C5, and it was better looking than anything on the planet.

Thanks everyone! I will feel alot better when i get her running solid ;D Im gonna call the dealer soon to order a few things to keep progress going. He is a great guy but far away unfortunately. Does CMW have an online parts fiche to look up stuff like bike bandit etc? Man that would make things easy to just pick it out and order.

YES ! !

Exactly what we did when I lived in the snow belt.

 Good times!   8) and didn't the neighbors gawk at us when we did the occasional test run when the roads were clear enough

LOL love the crazy stares haha. I try to do our toys for tots run whenever i can and its always held the first Sunday of December. For non cold weather people you can be lucky with a 30 degree day or deal with god knows what else. People that aren't in to bikes probably wonder what the hell kinda crazy people are riding in that weather.
