6,500 miles. Honda in North Charleston. They charged 2 hours. No dings. The trick is you "rotate" the fender forward to get it off. Here is my concern: I could not find the Dunlop D251 series tires, so I got D220 series. The front tire is 130/ instead of a 150/. The rear tire will be a 200/ instead of a 180/. Any thoughts? I just put my first 25 miles on the new tire, with 12 of them on the Weapons Station here in SC (where the terrorist Jose Padilla is) doing foot-peg dragging s-curves and increasingly faster "hard stops" to get the tire worn in and to feel the difference in handling. It appears that the slightly thinner front tire is more responsive, but, I wont push anything until I have 200 miles under the axle. When the rear tire comes in I will replace the D251 rear with the D220.
Another thing: Yesterday I ordered a complete set of front turn signals with the mounting brackets for the forks. My intention is to put them above the turn signal lights and make them running lights. This was not cheap: $385 bucks for all the pieces parts, without wire. ken
