    RSD Style Engine Covers

    Hi everyone, I recently purchased these Cylinder Head Protectors and the Front Engine Housing Trim Cover (RSD style) from AliExpress. To be honest, I am quite impressed. The CNC Machined finish and overall build quality are surprisingly good considering the price point. I have seen many members...

    South Florida keeps showing up this week

    Hey everyone, I figured it’s finally time to introduce myself properly. I’ve been around the group for a while, quietly learning from all of you, but I didn’t say much before because… well, I didn’t even have the bike yet. I’m based in Weston, near Fort Lauderdale. Many years ago I used to...
