Google "cypressgraphics, motorcycle".you'll get the guy's page where he has the german style graphics and many other decals. Cool stuff.

Yesterday I went with my buddy to pick up his new '06 Wee. Great deal and the start of a great adventure for sure.

Full TKC's on this trip. Best in the rough stuff but the rear wears at @ 4k miles even with increased psi on Tarmac. Next rear I put on will be a K60 and see how I like that.

Are the decals on your fairing the large or extra large size? Thanks.

pegs

Has anyone changed out the pillion pegs with a platform type? After too many miles my wifes feet hurt her, even with riding boots, so I am looking to see if I can find some replacement pegs that are more of a platform type. Post up if you can.
