    Cool!

    A few things Chris didn't mention but I will.

    1) This didn't just happen in a few weeks or a few months. Chris has been working on these things (for his own use) for several years, and this is about major revision 5. Between us, we have thousands of miles on them, which initially led to improvements, but lately has been confirming durability.

    2) All of the other options I'm aware of, require welding to the frame. Once set up, a competent mechanic can install and remove this thing in about an hour. So, you can race an enduro on Sunday and go for a big DS ride during the week.

    3) It's amazing to me what a difference taller gearing and wind protection make in how I perceive the bike. 70mph on the stock machine is kinda tiring- windy, noisy, vibey. 70mph with a fairing and 14/46 (or so) gearing, feels like all day comfort. You can really have two bikes in one.

    4) You can get a GS or LC8 just about anywhere, but neither of them compare to the feeling of riding a really light bike. A 450 or 530 set up with this kit rewards aggression off-road, can annihilate singletrack and gnarly jeep road just as well as smooth cruiser miles. As good as a 950 is, when the going gets rough, it shows it's weight. That's where a bike set up with this kit shines.

    Couple of questions:

    1) I tend to crash the 450 a lot. :D How durable have you found this setup?

    2) If pieces break, most notably the fibreglass fairing, or one of the metal plates, or something, will you be selling replacement pieces separately?

    3) Does it feel like there is a lot of pendulum-weight over the front end, with the GPS/roadbook/lights far out in front of the triple clamp?

    4) Once you get used to it, how quick is it to R&R the setup for tight trail riding? I wouldn't want to destroy it in the singletrack.

    edit: sorry, just saw Ned's answer to #4. About an hour, looks like.

    This setup is testing really, really tough. Ned and I have beat the s*&t out of these for ~3K miles combined. Proving to be tougher than we expected. And I wreck my 530 a lot!!:D

    #2
    Yes will will be offering the components for sale separately as crash replacement parts. Supports will have a warranty, I will have those terms worked out by the time we are taking full orders.

    #3
    This setup rides like a dirt bike unless the tank is full.
    I have thrown it around on single track many times. Only additional weight I feel is of the gas.
    You can also take Ned's word for it;
