Thanks for the tip.

I decided to stick with the OEM bars, their width helps with lifting a fallen bike.

I needed to know the bar diameter for a Ram mount for my V1.

I was going to put HID lights on (like my old bike) but decided not to ride overnight, so I didn't need them.

I'm going cross country from Daytona to San Francisco - my first ride on this bike...

I had a R1150RS that I liked, but sold to give up biking... well I'm back..

Somewhere in west Texas pre sunrise..
