    Good evening all. Just wanted to say Hi and to show off my ride.
    Been Kawasaki for 36 years and then last year i invested in this little rarity. I love it but i want it to make a bit more noise.

    No sir. I thought that until i contacted Hinckley.
    15 were made for each market only hence the rarity tag. Totally original

    Subject of another thread methinks, but for now I'll keep you guessing. Be assured though, there is NO electronic ankle tag so you're safe.

    Welcome to the forum! I have a 2014 T-Bird Commander and I'll pass along one thought if you are going to modify or change the exhaust. You will occasionally need to adjust the drive belt and will have to take off the right side silencer to torque the axle bolt. Depending on what 'look' you are going for, a shorter silencer will make that job a 'snap.' It's not a big deal to take off the silencer, but it will save you a few steps.
