    Hey guys,

    New to the forum, but not to bikes. Looking forward to sharing knowledge, photos, and our love for these awesome machines.

    Currently running a 2014 Scrambler with the following:
    -ceramic coated arrow 2-1 pipe
    -K&N w/ dealer tune
    -Hagon scrambler road shocks
    -thruxton adjustable nuts on front shocks
    -oxford heated grips
    -motodynamic tail tidy
    -BC seat
    -3600lumen LED headlight and accessory lights
    -dart flyscreen

    For those considering the motodynamic tail tidy (just purchased), it is a great little kit, however not compatible with the BC seat bracket at the rear. I had to slot two 25mm x 5mm notches into the bracket to fit the plate/light mount bracket. Minimal and very easy to do, but not bolt on. Didn't see this info anywhere on the net so figured I'd share since the BC seat seems to be so common.

    Cheers!

    Out for a foggy ride this weekend. The high pipe keeping my leg warm in the 2*C ocean breeze.

    Right handed heater? Brilliant! We need them here in the UK. Welcome in btw. You live in a beautiful part of the world. I was seeing a Japanese girl from your neck of the woods many years ago. Is the steam clock still working these days?

    Heated grips on both sides, but if they're not hot enough, I know what to do. Steam clock is in good working order, and typically surrounded by tourists, but we're happy to share. It is a beautiful part of the world, moved here about a year and a half ago from Calgary AB, and previously from Toronto, ON. West is best! Plus the riding is awesome, if you're back, make your way to Vancouver Island and rent a motorcycle for an excellent time.

    Cheers!
