Best mods to get from Honda

Dear All

Next week i will be discussing a new bike cbr1000rr abs purchase and i want to fit the following things. Hugger although it does not fit abs version. seat cowl, tail tidy . Crash bungs Tank pad . As it's about value for money which are the best accessories to get from honda and those i can buy from other sources.

Thanks Chris

 

Carbon tank pad and fuel cap cover from Honda. Hugger and seat cowl from here or ebay, Honda prices are silly for these. Tail tidy depends of if the dealer will give a discount, they are a fairly standard price. Crash bungs I wouldn't fit them, read a couple of stories about them snapping and not being able to get the bolts out plus some of them look crap. Fork sliders are ok .

 

asv levers...

crush bungs i think is a must i think...i heard of a story where a guy fell off and the bung got stuck in a drain..did not have a happy ending..again rare i think...

i have come off afew times, and the bungs have saved me from spending ££££'s on panels...

personal preference i think..

 

Well if you do want some Ive some brand new never been fitted ones.....should be ok for new blade ?

 

so you wan to buy the hugger even though it doesn't fit? err i'd prob not buy it

 

lol...or just check the for sale section... hint hint... lol

 

Radiator guard .

 

I've got the honda hugger on my 13 yr abs blade , no probs as yet and 2,500 miles !!

 

E comfort seat is a good buy if your on the bike for more than an hour

 

Hugger fits no probs, abs unit will twat it occasionally unless you get your suspension sorted

 

I'd jump in with both feet pal and swap your panels for a chinese replica. For the price of the Honda carbon engine casing sliders you can almost get a full GB racing kit.

 

Don't buy any Chinese junk, get poper parts...

 

Proper parts work well...and you will always get your money back...for when it cones to selling the parts off later..
