Going with the BIG modification!

[spear]

Hey guys.

Many of you will have been terrorised lately by Annie and Al visiting you from down-under. I'm very pleased that she has returned, as I've bought her Wedgetail Outrider from her to fit to my 2004 RSV.

Mind you it has to be shipped from one side of the country to the other, but nevertheless it will be worth it.

I'm sure the Wedgetail is known by another name in the States, so here's a link to the local site if you don't know what I'm talking about.

I'll let you know how I go with it and post photos when done.

Cheers,

Spear.

Wow! that sounds like a great alternative to triking a bike..."YOU don't have to give up the Lean"!

 

SWEET!

 

 

Wonder how much??

 

looks like about $10 k...

 

and allows you to convert back to 2 wheels in minutes... I think they may be on to something here...

Hey Cap'n Joe.

$10k new is about on the mark here in Oz PLUS fitting.

Mine's not new and I'm fitting it.

That is pretty cool never seen one before.

I believe over here that would be a Voyager Kit... Yes good idea

[Sideoftheroad]

This is really close to the Voyager kit.

Terrorised??????? And this from the man with the "pink" avatar

Wizard is right....Voyager kit to you folks.

Can't wait to see it finished

Thanks Wizard and Annie.

I couldn't remember that it was the Voyager top-side.

New, lets get poetic here - -

My brothers and sister with whom I do an annual ride, have christened my RSV The Mothership.

I seem to remember the dialogue from the opening scenes of Star Trek that go something like this: "These are the voyagers of the Starship Enterprise..."

Voyager - Starship - Mothership.

Am I making a connection here?

Ah - fergit it!

Hey Annie,

Just as an aside - that 245 forum seems pretty life-less.

In fact I'd call it dead!

An update for those who are remotely interested (and how remote is Down Under??)

The Wedgie left Perth WA (that's Western Australia - Oz) 24 hours ago and is on its way east. Being transported from one side of Oz to the other and being delivered to my workshop in about 7-10 days.

Can't wait.

THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!

Fitting day tomorrow.

Woo hoooooo!

Thought I better show you what all the fuss is about.

Certainly a v-e-r-y different riding experience.
