A few things left to do .
1 . Mount rear hat box/trunk & paint to match bike
2 .Install windshield (waiting for mounts from New York )
3 .Start working on Ironman or Darth Vader Spree .(I just stuck it on the Gyro to see what it would look like )

How is that trunk to ride with? Can you still lean back with the curvature of the seat?

CB900F is right on the money They do around 30 - 32 MPH But it's weird because your sitting lower it really feels a lot faster .
And also only the right rear wheel has power the left side just spins freely (1 wheel drive) But they are a lot of fun when your leaning on curves people think your going to fall over .

When I first put a trunk on I thought it would be goofy .
But it really feels great you can lean back and it's really comfortable .
It actually feels strange riding without it on because if you do lean back there is nothing to support your back .
If you have a Gyro zip tie a milk crate or something to the back rack and it will give you an idea what its like befor you buy a real trunk .
I just dig it and you can store your tools and lock & chain .
