First post here just wanted to say hi and only have a small agenda :D I have a 2019 P1k5D and so far I have been extremely happy with it. It's got about 400 miles on it (mostly around our small town and open trail riding and maybe a little bit of Florida mud :cool:) I've added a viper winch, 2nd battery with isolator, switch panel, rims and tires on order, and some other minor add-ons and tweaks cuz I can't leave anything alone (more on that later).

I've been lurking around for a month or so and have really enjoyed the posts/topics/responses here, seems to be a great community with a bunch of helpful and informed people....and a couple of goofballs.

I don't know how many Florida P1k5 owners we have here and would like to head over to Ocala and ride those trails as well. Which meanders me around to my point. I bought the machine with an Audio-Formz top on it Honda Pioneer 1000-5 Stereo Tops and I wanted to gauge any interest in it by someone close enough to pick it up. I'm not even sure if my wife will let me sell it at this point as I'm fairly certain that top is what sold her on this machine! I wanted a Talon but came home with a Pioneer o_O Anyway I'm wanted to build a custom roll cage ( I may just chop this cage) for the machine and get rid of some of this height and weight off the top. Then I want to build my own lightweight fiberglass custom top to fit the new cage so I can fit it in my enclosed trailer. This crazy top added about $2k to the machine and is in perfect condition as it's only about a month old. IF I'm actually allowed to sell it :rolleyes: I'd be looking in the $1500+ range.

In any event, love the forum and have learned a lot from you guys. Look forward to contributing when I have something helpful to say :p

Thanks for the warm welcome guys/gals!
I live on the space coast near the Kennedy Space center. I think I MAY have my wife conned into letting me sell her precious top (uhhh, the Honda's top that is) but with the condition that I install another stereo system on the new top (more fiberglass work for me :rolleyes: ). I think she's mesmurized by the Speaker LED's on the current top. I wanna be a member of the Chop Top Club in the worst way! I have my porta band and mig welder sitting very close to the bike in the garage...maybe a little too close o_O

Nick

Will post pictures of the bike/top soon...

Welcome to the forum. If you are considering add-ons, then I would suggest one of the cheapest you will buy, a battery tender. The tender will keep the battery ready to go and in my experience really extend the overall life, a nice cheap addition, just plug it up when not in use…

If I'm honest I probably fit in quite well with the goofballs more than any other group :) Hell I'm talking about taking a band saw and welder to a brand new machine :)
