Hello from YUMA ARIZONA

Hello, I'm charlie8511

Hello Group!
Just wanted to say hi and looking forward to sharing info on the Honda Talon. Just picked up the new 1000R this week and already started MOD's but not easy to find many parts just yet. I've already added a 5150 Whip, (lifetime warranties and best whips on the market IMO), Dragonfire racing harnesses which I had to drill out the lap belt tabs to 9/16" holes as the mounting bolts would not fit, ordered 29" Slinger paddles for the dunes, have a light bar on its way and a tailgate bar to close in the rear box. Got 3 miles on it as of today but heading out in a few for a nice long afternoon ride! Any tips or advice is much appreciated.
Safe Rides!!

Here is a little info about me to begin with!
Honda SxS ownership : Yes, this is my first.
I have owned, or currently own the following: UTV, ATV, 3-wheeler, Motorcycle
My off-road experience level is: Skilled
My favorite place to ride is: Glamis Sand Dunes

Hey Charlie... I’m in Yuma AZ also. Just bought my Talon a couple of days after you. I actually saw a red Talon on Fortuna Rd and wanted to chase it down. See you out in the desert.

Hey Todd,
Wondering if you are someone I already know, I'm originally from Michigan myself. Hmmm, wondering have you ridden at Silver Lake? Many rides over there for me when I was a teen and Leota Gravel Pits?? Know any of these places.

SWEET! Will see you out there hopefully!! I can tell you that it wasn't me on Fortuna Rd, as I'm over by Araby and have only driven it there so far.
