Definitely a nice bike, I've been toying with the idea of getting into Mt biking, got a couple of co-workers that are into it.  I've gone out with them a few times before on a rental bike, so this summer I've either been saving for a Mt bike, or the Titan swap.

Decisions Decisions...

In my opinion, mountain biking is truly the all encompassing sport. You get sense of accomplishment of the climb, you get the thrill and rush of the decent, you get amazing exercise, and you get to see a lot of the country that most people don't. It's a lot like wheeling, without the exercise part.
I love it when a plan comes together

I've always hated the twang of my antenna in tight squeeze.

Here's my fix. $14 at Pep Boys. Simply unscrew the factory twangy antenna, screw on the new shorty antenna using the appropriate adaptor.

Thanks LAVA!!

That looks more fitting on a "Storm-troopers" Helmet than the Factory one for sure! Nice Work!

That'll be $3 Dollars in Mod Royalty Fees  ;)
My other vehicle is an X-WING

This just happens to equal one "post trail social sparkler" in value.  Coincedence...I think not!  ;D

I have awful reception, but I had bad reception with the stock antenna too. It got A LOT worse when I switched to the stubby antenna. It doesn't bother me because I listen to my IPod or Sirius.

My new Rocky Mountain recovery brackets. Installed right before CANVAZ. Luckily I never used them, but glad I had them.

Installed my permanent antenna mount today.

Used a Firestik Adjustable Hatch Mount with a 3' Firestik tunable antenna.

Ran the cable through an existing hole on the hatch

Installed my PA speaker today. After hearing Alex razz his dad, GhostX, on Gold Mountain, using Toro's PA, I had to get one.  ;D
