Re: Updated info for 02 curvy rear shock

Re: Fuel cap upgrade- what are your thoughts?

To be honest, I don't know how it got damaged, I have very little on the bike key, before I had it, the guy before let it sit outside- a lot of her frame was rusted and corroded (hence getting it all...

That is a good suggestion, I guess I would just have to take it slow but it would make a perfect circle!

Re: What to do?
