I did both why can't you?

I'd need to liquidate some guns to afford North Idaho at this point. Land prices there are becoming unobtanium. I think most Idahoans would rather me sell my collection there. I am talking with a realtor daily. What part are you in? I ride there every year.

I live in the high desert (southern Idaho) Just bought a cabin in central Idaho North of Fairfield,Id.Your right we have been looking for 5 years now and finally got one snagged up. Ever in this neck of woods look me up we are always up for a good ride do allot of 2-4 day trips out of the pioneer not sure if the talon will work as good.

Factory bar. PITA to install, they could have re-thought the brackets IMO.

Honda front windshield
Honda rear windshield
Honda switch-plate
Honda A arm guards
Honda rear guards
Honda bottom doors
Honda skid plate
Side view and rear view mirrors
Honda sound system
Honda front spot lights
Honda front and rear bumpers
Street legal kit

AND FINALLY Jackson T

Items still looking to add:

Five point harness
Winch
Rock sliders
30” + rims and tires

To share some input on the turbo from a non certified tech point of view and from the view of a seasoned mechanics view:

The install is truly a bolt on experience, the instructions are detailed, unless you rely on pictures to orient yourself you will be ok. The only hair raising part is if you have the “A” type of throttle body instead of the “AC” type then you have to drill a hole in it. Yes I had the “A” type.

Everything seems well thought out and purposely built with Honda, my only gripe is the awful placement of the air cleaner and the need to pull the entire inner fender on the passenger side to clean or change it.

The power of the turbo: just wow! I will verify that is is still limited at 75 miles an hour. Also the tuner does sync directly to your ECU and locks after you first flash it so it will not work on any other machine.

Thanks for all the posts and members helps me a ton!

Also added a Live valve for the wife will update that build in another thread.
