Honda Talon 1000R build

(1/6) > >>

Flyin6:
So now that I have had the thing out for a few rides, I can report that it is doing well. The trails here in the Tuck are narrow, rock strewn, muddy, lots of standing water and areas requiring extreme departure angles. THis "R" handles all this very well.

The shocks are three position and so far I have been using setting "2" which allows for some very sporty driving, drifting around corners in some places (Sliding??) I just switched to the soft position to see how that works out.

The other Talon I owned got buggered up already, which prompted me to start to accumulate parts.

The first thing it needed was some mirrors, so for the first mod, on with a set of ABS plastic body mirrors.

Flyin6:
BTW, it was layered up pretty well with some mud, but the new stihl pressure washer with small block chevy power and like 100 gallons a second cleaned it right up!

and
he gets to pay to repair it ;-))
