    I'm not sure who suggested checking out MTR sports but after receiving a quote from Avicious cycle mtr sports fares quite well in pricing but once the tax man takes his cut I imagine things will even out.
    I've stripped the bike of broken and twisted front fairing and fender.pulled off seat and muffler and getting a good look around the bike to see if there is more damage. My rear suspension shock may be gassed so another$.
    While I'm at that I may get the front coils to smooth the ride.

    off to Fort St John for a quick job.

    Awesome to hear (again) that MTR is responsive & competitive.

    I apologize for the broken record, but MTR is a site sponsor (meaning they give us cash). The guy from Ontario is not. Please support those that support us!

    Thanks

    A bit under thirty bucks, can't wait but am a bit nervous about the install, but I'll figure it out eventually. They sure will be nice on many, many days. I guess you may need new grips as well and perhaps a metal throttle tube if you want, or have issues taking the original grips off. I hear contact cleaner helps loosen the glue....I'm gonna try battery terminal cleaner since that's what I have on hand and I think it should be similar.

    One note is if you order the OEM plastic throttle tube it will come with the grips from hell to remove attached so opt for something else.
