Hey sgtfixit let me know how the center stand works out. If you like it and ease of use. Thought about that myself but didn't pull the trigger on that one. I haven't had a bike with a center stand since the early 80's, sure was nice for allot of differant reasons.Picked up new 2011 Cross Country this week! Traded in an 06 Yamaha Royal Star Tour Delux Midnight. Am very happy with the new ride! Was a little "confused" by the dealer, and assumed the accesories would be intalled prior to pick-up, but I did not ask ahead of time, so I guess I'll install them myself. Dealer wanted to charge more after the fact for installation. Ordered her with the flip windshield, highway pegs, driver and passenger back rests, and a center stand. I got a really good deal.
Nice pics and ride.Here are pictures of my 2011 XC in Oklahoma in November 2011 in SE Oklahoma. We do have mountains in Oklahoma.
The (cheap) lights I purchased come with a lighted toggle switch which fits into the dash with minor modification. Under the upper bars are some flat mounting pads that I drilled and tapped. On the left side of the tank there is a yellow and black pair of wires that are for fog lights which I used for my power. The connection is switched which prevents me from leaving them on and I have the switch to turn them off if I want. Pretty straight forward, you have to pull the tank back to get to the power connection.Dear VRat, please let me know the details about your highway lights. Great that you have them attached to the upper of your bar. Do you have a toggle switch, or push button? I have been looking for a good idea for highway lights and looks like you have it. Please fill us in on the details from start to finish. Thanks a lot, and beautiful bike!!! Just rode down here in Oklahoma today, 19 Dec 10. Clear skies and 57 degrees.
