I tell myself that I don't put too many farkles on my bike. My 2014 ES doesn't need many but as I was washing it, it seems that I have a few. Some I took off my 2006 FJR and transplanted on my 2014.
Garauld who is on the forum and makes very cool custom made luggage racks built a rack with backrest mount for my 2006. I sent him the rack and he repainted it to 2014 red. Garauld does great work and it looks awesome.
I put Motovation frame sliders, they are cut to fit the fairing and bolt right on. They look good and may help just like my Skyways did on my 06 with a slow speed tip over, although I'll try not to let that happen. They seem to be much better quality than the Skyways.
I took the well broken in Yamaha comfort seat off my 06 and it looks good and feels good on my 14.
I also took the Backoff license plate bracket with tail and brake lights off my 06 and put it on my 14. This gives a lot of extra tail and brake light and it's good to be seen among all those cages out there. This is the 3rd bike I've had this bracket/lights on, it came off my V-Rod before my 06 FJR.
I just installed a Cee Bailey sport screen. This is way better than the stock windshield but only 1 inch taller. I'm 6' 3" and it gives me a no buffet quiet zone and doesn't look huge on the bike.
So, looks like I ended up with quite a few farkles.
I have 6,000 miles on the bike and I love this bike. Just a little over 2 months old and doing great. Can't find anything wrong with it.
