Sorry man. I already used them on my dj1 build. It’s finished and up for sale here in California.
What’s up Mike. Long time no talk.

Fabulous looking DJ1 harleyracer !
This is your first appearance in more than a year... :surprise:
When I see people trying to get answers on a thread that hasn't seen replies in 2 years,
I always encourage them to make a new post to improve their chances of getting answered.
Then you go and pop up out of the past and show us a wicked bike... :geekdance:
Still plugging along here, moved away from the craziness of Nashville.
Only 80 miles away, so still keeping touch with my peeps that I've known for the endurance.
All the moped kids are buying dual-sports.
There really isn't much of a scooter scene there anymore.
Currently, I am having a mechanic do some freshening on my MB5.
I'm not able to do any work now because I've not got any shed now to have any work space.
Been waiting for winter to pass before making that purchase.
My daily is now a Yamaha Majesty 400. Helix for a lot of years, but stepped up my game.
Still riding the Gyro, keeping it in Nashville for the weekend when I go down and stay with my girlfriend. :rock:
Have a couple easy projects, '82 Urban Express and a '79 QT50.
Wanting to buy a Honda Navi...but just can't justify it yet due to the storage situation.
So, there you have it. Glad to see you back and hope you check in more often... :urban: ...motor

Just seeing this somehow, that thing looks really good, I've since found a JDM tail for a pretty reasonable price on Buyee. I also seen a whole DJ1 panel set for approx. $100USD and thought about snagging it but I'll see how to the tail looks with USDM panels, should be here in about a week.

The Navi is a great bike. The main issue is dealers charging x3-4 times MSRP. I was lucky to grab mine earlier. If you're worried about space the carrier on the bottom is pretty big.. I saw a video of a guy fitting quite a bit of beer in there.

EDIT: oh you meant storing the bike, my bad lol
