    My only problem with the MC19 is the fragile chain slider. If only someone would make new ones...

    I'm surprised you left the 'speed' light on the dash, that will annoy the crap out of you when riding. Do you have the black panels from the fairing to down beside the tank?

    Yes have the panels, the front fairing is on loose at the moment as I am waiting for the front indicators from Xcite Bikes. I am not keeping the bike as I only want to keep perfect original bikes so the speed warning light won't worry me at all. It will be going up for sale as soon as its finished. I took it for a spin where my factory is and it performing well.

    The speed light totally panicked me the first time I had my bike out. I'd never seen anything like that and had no idea it was a thing. Nothing like riding along, looking down, and seeing a big red light. I ended up on the side of the road in an interesting neighborhood of Philadelphia trying to read my Japanese owner's manual with google translate on my phone.

    Good times...

    Well here it is just waiting on the new front indicators, she runs and rides as she should and she's up for sale. Hopefully the new owner takes her out for regular rides. IMG_0015.JPG
