I like where yer going with this, Lance. The BB kit is something I need to consider... I own a 1200 Trophy and believe me when I tell you... 'gigady' as you say, or giddy-up-and-go is a wonderful thing when all you have to do is twist the throttle. As for Progressive suspension... yeah. Stock sucks, Progressive rules... for safely, comfort and overall enjoyment.

Like you I believe we all own a gem, a rare blend of function and form... what I believe will become a classic to the future of motorcycles. It is worth the investment to 'make it right' and tune it to your own individual needs and wants. I own a TA and a Trophy as mentioned... and the TA far outreaches the Trophy for adaptability and personalization. The Trophy (a gem in it's own right) is rather static compared to the TA. The TA is easy to work on, change, adjust or otherwise customize to my own particular whims. I encourage you to continue on the train of thought you are on with your Speedy. Please share you journey as you work towards the perfect bike for you. Speaking on behalf of everyone here... I am very interested in your progress.


Live to love, love to live.
