***Had to pull my IMG tags due to the picture police. Guess 800x600 is TOO big.***

Not a jab at moderators... more at people that can't handle small pics... kinda lame IMHO

Welcome Gas Man

Like you, I was into the car thing but became a motorcycle guy. Really do enjoy the SS but it is the wife's car. Here is the car and bike together.

Smooth... oh wait... um.... OK carry on boys... nothing to see here...

Nice SG JC. I went Ultra that I stripped, moved, bolted, un bolted, bolted again... I knew what I wanted. I want a SG for around town, but then when I'm off I want full out touring bike aka Ultra.

Around town... but this one is in Hell, MI

As far as bike and SS. I got one here from Dec next to the TB SS.

Got to get it in when you can...

Just did the front door lock knobs today after a suggestion here last night...

Spun off the plastic knob

Cut that down a bit cause just doing the knob wasn't enough...

Now this is unlocked

This is locked... which you don't feel. Wasn't sure I wanted to chance taking it any lower.

And my 2nd try at front blinkers. I didn't like the way the A25 (pictured on right) lit the blinker and how it didn't have good side view. It really wasn't utilizing the reflector in the housing.

Replaced with a more expensive ($8 vs $16) 360* tower.

I tried to get it on bright... no cigar after 3 tries... it lights up in pie shapes all around... looks kinda cool. Can't wait to see it at night. It's at home now, cause I'm at work on the bike... will get better night pics later.

Here's a couple night shots of the new tower style front blinkers... they look soooo much better!

Still loving the short throw shifter. The wife too... yes boys she's a gear head in progress.

Now looking into doing more bushings from TWM to increase the awesome of this mod.

[QUOTE=Gas Man;

I ordered my 2010 HHR SS with the 5 speed, performence package, and dealer installed stage 1 kit. I just so happen to be at the dealership when it rolled off the truck, as you can see in the background.
