I really like the shape of Isabelle's tush. Damn right, I think of it often LOL.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-82462309911883997202012-10-22T20:41:22.258-05:002012-10-22T20:41:22.258-05:00Richard,

I'd thought about painting the gray area black and finding a way to extent the mirrors wider. We used some old open end wrenches to extent the mirrors on the Symba. With the handguards the gray doesn't look so bad, it may even grow on me. Still, I would like to see more of what's behind me and less of me in my mirrors.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-9198718345206999022012-10-22T20:25:10.234-05:002012-10-22T20:25:10.234-05:00Kari,

And, with the faster speeds Isabelle can go, I knew the first thing was heated grips. I, also, have handguards on the Symba and they help, but this are much more impressive.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-37894896891870075392012-10-22T20:21:58.672-05:002012-10-22T20:21:58.672-05:00Brandy,

I doubt these would fit on you scooter, but there are lots of handguards out there. They do help cut down the wind. The installation on the Kymco was quite involved. He had to cut plastic and modify the bars. I think they turned out great.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-35478466942282738032012-10-22T20:11:47.677-05:002012-10-22T20:11:47.677-05:00Martha,

Wow! These guards really do seem to block the wind nicely as well. I would have liked to have had this setup when I rode to Ft. Davidson.
