After a few additions by Freebird to his list, and Phil's (Sleepy2) entry...we have a close race.

Larry (CarbonOne) - 31.5

Scott (Cowpuc) - 21.5

Don (Freebird) - 38

Phil (Sleepy2) - 40

 

Challenge is there for you Bob. Considering Freebird has entered and Phil (who has seen my bike in person a number of times)....if they couldn't get perfect scores, you think you can ?

 

There are enough "hidden" gems - some obvious, some you have to think about - that everyone has a good shot at this. Hoping for several more contestants.

You look right at it and you think......Man how did I miss that!?

 

Wait until the end of the week and I list all my items. You'll wonder how you missed some of the other things too !

 

You are only about 12 from being perfect !

 

Come on guys... if David can find 47.... YOU can too !!!! Just think, free one year membership AND a VR.org guardian bell !

 

Look at the pictures posted but also the pics on photobucket and zoom in and look closely!

Someone needs to step up and challenge David ! He is still scouring my pictures and has found two more items. His total is now 49 !

 

Phil, Don... Bob (?).... anyone ? One year free membership and a VR.org guardian bell are on the line.

 

Contest close is noon (EST) this Friday.

- air delflectors on fairing were originally clear. I painted mine black to match black of paint on lower part of fairing

- air horns below and behind passenger floorboards mounted using Slowrollwv brackets

- battery tender - close look in front of left side cover the quick connect cable is visible

- BuddyRich cable - with Zumo 660 and smartphone....who wouldn't install the BuddyRich cable?

 

Since taking the pictures and beginning the contest, I've :

- added a chrome choke knob cover

- added handle bar mounted tach

- replaced Stebel horn on right side of bike in original horn location - the chrome was flaking off so put the original OEM horn back on

 

Winter plans :

- chrome side covers

- stainless steel cables
