Dang it Jeff...I lost the information on the site where you ordered the rebel stickers. I just showed a friend those and he wants some now too. Can you please send me the link? HotrodMamma.

Find some great things here on-line~lol . Yeah the 3# wire does reach i just wanted to make sure being a little bit too long would not affect how it runs.I can definitely use the hwy pegs also,they make long trips so much more comfortable.The rust on the sissy bar is not a big problem ,i can either find a place to re chrome them or simply paint the bars on them black since my bike seems to be mostly black and white.My wife and i found some decals that we are going to put on the tanks and side covershttp://www.westonsigns.com/product.php?productid=1297&cat=290&page=1 > > http://www.westonsigns.com/product.php?productid=1784&cat=289&page=2 > > I just have to figure out which sizes to get... they will look good on the bike because it is painted white ... i am still trying to decide what to put on the front fender ... i was thinking about something along the lines of this --->http://www.westonsigns.com/product.php?productid=16420&cat=305&page=1 <--- maybe 4" on that decal to go in the fender > > My wife and i saw leather jackets and helmets to match these decals the other day ... they would go great with my rebel flag tats. > Just let me know tomorrow how much the cost is going to be and we will get that right off to you, Thanks ~ J.

If it reaches your #4 will do, just tag it as #3 for future reference. Sorry no turn signals, mine were all broken. I'll check again for fuse box cover but I don't remember seeing one. I have some highway pegs I'll throw in. Keep them or pass them on. I'll mail it all off tomorrow and let you know what it costs. You'll have to be the judge of the sissy bar - you saw the pic. There's rust. Only good thing is that it's been adapted to fit the 650NH, Graham > > On Mar 31, 2009, at 8:29 PM, jeff scott wrote: > > I think that about covers it unless you have 4 turn signals you don't need and a fuse box cover which i think you didn't have if my memory is working today, i can't seem to remember things at times.If you have one i need a #3 cylinder spark plug wire, i got a wire but its from #4 cylinder and i don't know if that will work of not.Aside from that stuff all other stuff is luxury items that i don't really need in order to ride but would like to getin the future such as highway pegs and crash bars. > My address is > 810 Pontiac Avenue > Brooklyn,Maryland 21225 Thanks so very much ~ J.
