Boxeye Mod list
« on: 30 September 2014, 05:16:41 am »
Hi, I want to make a list of mods that I could do to my new bike.

If its been asked to death I apologise but would rather have it in one list which maybe could be made a sticky thread?

So if you know any good ones then write it down and if theres a link to another thread (ie how to etc) the post that with it.

Thanks and look forward to your replies!

If its not already done I would suggest to do the headlights mod so both left a right headlight comes on together on dipped. Easy to do. Here's the link

Headlight mod above is a must!!!

If the bike is on original brake lines then maybe a braided hose setup to improve it. We (FOC) currently have a 25% discount with HEL. Will try & find linky for you.

Possible front sprocket change to suit your riding style.

Rear hugger?

Custom seat?

Good luck..........

Headlights are a must.  Several routes that you can go down for this.  Do this now, its starting to get darker out there.
R6 rear shock.

Clear indicator lenses (£20 the lot) might freshen up the look to your liking.

Does that include the amber bulbs

I would not want to do anything that dimmed the light output, what now happens if you have an accident and you say you were indicating and they say they did not see-- the MOT has an advisory
