Shorty levers, r6 shock, fork rebuild, heated grips, led lights/indicators?

 You need to put some pics of your mods on here to influence others. But keep going!
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

Forgot to mention fabricated alloy bar ends. Thought bout paint job but the original one is immaculate. It's polished, conditioner and waxed quite often. Did try led indicators but didn't think they looked right so scrapped that idea. I'm actually considering buying another just to start again lol.. Don't think need go go juice as it goes like a freight train now. Got hein gericke heated grips but didn't like the messy wires coming from the grips. So just attatch the wrap around hot grips during winter. Will upload pics when get back from work. For the love of the bike I just don't want to stop...


Oh and got short levers but got big hands so didn't get along with them..But a very good suggestion r6 shock. I'm going shopping. eBay here I come..

For example:

- Fine rear shock (FG Gubellini for example)
- Fork preload adjusters
- Thunderace/XJR rear brake torque arm
- 3.5" wide front rim from a TRX850 for fitting 120/70 tyres.
- 170/60 rear tyre

As I have just bought an ThunderWhale I am going to sell those and other bits within a couple of weeks, if you want to wait for them. (Except for the tyre and maybe the rim).

I might be wrong but I think someone did that a while back and put a hole in the engine casing

Looks good though

Swap the numberplate and rear reflector around to tidy up teh rear end.  If your plate is oversize then get one that is actually the minimum legal size.

Lower renthal bars.

Ditch the smoke light covers - the lights are crap without making them worse

Galfer Wavey discs (look great but the jury is out on performance)

Titanium disc bolts

XJR torque arm

Blue spot rear caliper from a fazer thousand.

Rearsets, some lighter pegs.

Sort that radiator cover out.  Cut the sides away so you can re-fit the original aluminium side trims.  It will look much better.

Not a bad idea with the later mirrors. Kinda got round with these ones as fitted blind spot mirrors which work a treat but will look into that cheers..
