Lovely Wing pic, with the sun streaming through the trees.

I wish I could take credit for it! My girlfriend is a very artistic person and used to work as a professional photographer at one time. I can snap off one good picture in 50, while she can walk up, take 10 photos, and all 10 are amazing.

A look at the 2017 burrito tube. It is pretty small, and has no weather seal, but it is just big enough for the factory tool kit.

Also noticed that mine came shipped with the chain very tight. That is me pushing up on said chain pretty hard.

Side by side of IMS vs stock shifters

I thought it was just my shifter, or maybe I just got the wrong shifter. I guess RPS must have extended it. On a good note, the new shifter does have the folding peg!

The IMS shifter is just a hair longer, its for an xr400, but the peg also sits a bit more inward as well, and it gives me just a bit more room for my big foot.
