Wow, I am drooling over your bike. Looks great.

I am new to 990's .... what tires are you running? Are they for 50/50 riding?

Heidenua K60 on rear and Continental TKC 80 on the front, and yes 50/50, although I try to ride more dirt than pavement. I can still drag my luggage on the pavement with this tire set up, regardless of what some have said about TKC's on pavement.

I agree on the TKC on pavement...they hood up nicely. I have yet to try the Heidenua K60, but its on my upgrade list.

You both need one of these to bump up the bling factor :

I got mine From CJ...the dude rocks. Plus he carries the Heidenua K60

My CJDesigns clutch cover is on the way

For me.. it is not bling as much as it is peace of mind. Every time I look at it and see the oil is clear I know I don't have to do the water pump seal again

No kidding about the peace of mind. My wife got one for me for Christmas a couple of years ago and by April it had already saved my engine.
