    Hi guys.
    I'm getting a Thunderbird Storm as soon as I can figure how to get it here from CT.
    Quotes from $350 to $760 so far. Has to be a weekend.
    Looking into floorboards. VERY expensive,gotta move the linkage.
    Brighter lights. LED's from $35 to $260 EACH.
    Lowers.
    Hard Bags. Tsukayu
    Remove CAT.
    Touring seat.
    Gotta see if my sweetie can get on it before I go crazy with this. If she's not coming along I don't need to bring as much stuff.
    I do mostly 150 to 300 mile day/night rides.
    Mostly Southern Tier. Oneonta,Whitney Point,Glimmerglass.
    Finger Lakes. Cayuga,Seneca,Keuka,,Scaneatelas
    Lake Ontario.
    Saint Lawrence River.

    Thanks for the warm welcome. I hope my honey can mount this beast. If not my customizing will go in a different direction.
