Can't recommend this enough. Costco, $119.99 very easy up, even easier down. Very sturdy, very easy to use. So easy my wife has helped me get it set up. Stable in a stronger breeze than expected it to.

Heavy, but carrying case is setup to be rolled. 5/5

Picked these up over the weekend. Turned out to be even cooler than I expected.

No, but I do need to reroute the lines from running between the forks to outside the forks. Luckily they aren't true forks, so it is just removing the mounting nut, pulling the fork tube down, moving the cables, pulling the fork tube back up then reattaching the nut.

I have Anakee 3's on right now. I'd definitely be up for that kind of ride. Let me know next time.

I've been thinking about raising my bars for a while, would be much more comfortable when standing. But I think to do what I'd want to do would require a new or modified throttle cable.

Depending on what you need, you might not need to. I bought the 2" pivoting risers because I knew I needed to pull the bars closer to me and raise them up some. If you just need to raise them up an inch you might be ok.

It's welded open. Supposed to make it 922r compliant to break the weld. About $50 to comvert it.

Cooling Vest, found one on Amazon for $250 vs the $1100 of Veskimo and figured I'd give it a try. Initially it'll be used while mowing the yard.

It held four large cups of ice with a bit of room to spare. Here's my initial review

He can't. He bought that leftover 16 RSVR. Already broke down and is back at the dealer....
