Yeah that looks great. Did the taillight come with the tail tidy/fender delete?

Always disliked the round light that these come with.

Between the two totally transforms the look.

Absolutely. Really brings the bike together.

A few upgrades done to the bike

WoodCraft clip-on adapter plate and bars. Brought bars down about 2 inches, which really makes it feel more enganging and of course, looks bad ass.

I need to get some inserts for the clip ons so I can fit my bar ends, but also don't mind how the stock mirrors look on it.

Also got a fender delete kit, which I think looks great. Between the two totally transforms the look.

I've updated my lock/latch on my outdoor garage, so hopefully that works lol.......

Best thing I got going is full coverage, so worst case Geico will pay up..

Really loving the CP2 engine in the XSR. Also, really appreciating where I live now that I've started riding. Year round riding weather is something to be grateful for.

I can imagine the pain of having to store a bike for the winter months.

Yeah I wish it were lol.. ordered two disc locks with alarms......

I'll take any other suggestions

I really hope that's enough for you, I'd recommend some sort of really solid cable or chain to a stationary object solution as well to reduce crimes of opportunity and some sort of tracking device would probably be prudent. For me indoor storage of my bike is a must, because in my experience of having stuff stolen the judicial system is way too easy on thieves and LE doesn't give a half a single crap about stolen property.

So I keep my bikes in my outdoor storage unit in front of my shop..

Drove up to work today and found my grom laying in the middle of the lot, on a dolly.....

Yeesh! You'd think a locked storage unit would be enough of a deterrent.
Glad none of the bikes walked away.
Time for an outdoor guard dog for the shop?

Someone cut the latch, not the lock and dragged it out.. Luckily the bars were locked and they couldnt get it far.... they scratched up the left side of the gas tank and broke a turn signal... California is really on a sick one right now..

Luckily its a faring and not an actual fuel tank.

Gotta figure out a more secure locking method

luckily it was my grom and not the new bike

A buddy of mine had an XSR700 with a few mods and it was a great bike.
They sound great too (But the 900 is my favorite because I love me a triple)

If I someday ended up with another bike to actually ride, it would be something more along these lines.

[MrBurgundy]

Yeah, seems to be the same idea at the SRX 6

Fun bike, loads of power for the city. Sounds awesome.

[roguetoaster]

It's a riff on the SR/SRXs, which I am very familiar with.

[MrBurgundy]

Its a XSR700 with the CP2

Basically an MT07 but with that neo retro styling.. Wanted a CB650R but this CP2 seems like the motor for me.. Don't have to rev it to 9k rpm to get something out of it. Got a good deal on it too.

[Panici]

Well, that was fast.. Got another bike..

I love that retro-styled bikes are "in" again. And unlike cars they can produce the body styles in the modern day.

What is it?
