For the Newbies: Mods that Make a Difference

[Tom in NM]

I guess I am no Bonecrusher either . . . . .

All my heigth, 5'11", with the shorter inseam, is made up in my arms and from the waist up. The size 54 jacket is a TALL. Contrary to what the Wife says, my knucles DO NOT drag if I stand up stright. That is why I have no trouble with the reach to the bars. The Pacific Coast was set up so the mirrors looked back UNDER my armpits! At least these look past my shoulders. If I sit up stright in the Spyder seat all I can see in the mirrors are my arms and love handles! A slightly twisted leg and big feet will benifit from the larger surface of the Kury pegs.

. . . . I had no problem with the stock mirrors before the risers, or after. But, I am not built at all like you or Bonecrusher - so I can see the mirror extensions being helpful.

And, it sounds like wider pegs are in your future.

In many ways you're lucky! Mirror extensions are one thing, try getting properly fitting dress clothing! :yikes:

Thank goodness for Tommy Bahama!
