i was thinkin about the pro armor black fat peg nerf bars, but since i go trail riding im thinkin theyll get scratched n the powercoat will come off n itll look bad. any1 noe how easily the paint chips n scratches off on them?

Pro Armor Powdercoat holds up pretty well compared to some like AC. First mods though would be to get either the HRC kit, or a full system and filter.

The second mod would be to shrink the size of your signature pic! haha

Put a 13 tooth sprocket up front. The R's don't come geared right from the factory you'll notice a difference.

wut would that increase?

it will lower the gearing a bit, the R comes geared really tall from the factory
