Natural Habitat
Newbie up here in Detroit, finally got the new body mounts in and everything tuned up for this spring and my baby was able to make the 3 hour trek across the state for some camping this weekend. Figured I'd shoot a few pics of her in her natural habitat. Can't wait for some warmer weather!!

Thanks everyone, I'm sure I'll be posting more as I start some more projects on it. Jaydub, it's the Fasttrac top from Specialty Top. I really like it, even though it gets a bit noisy sometimes. Does a great job of keeping the rain off and sets up pretty quickly. I also really like the looks of it with all the windows taken off. - jd

Top looks a little loose. You can add a little tension to the rear bow by moving it out to the next hole. That might cut down some of the noise if it's a little tighter. With the windows up the Fast track on my 75 is quieter then the hard top is on the road. The fabric inside keeps the noise from bouncing around. Hard top it sounds like a echo chamber. Windows part way down all bets are off. It will pop against the roll bar and the suport hoops.
