Hi guys Just cause I'm nosey. What mods have u got planned for those cold winter garage nights. I'll kick it off with my list. Yoshi R77 slip on Powercommander V & map switch. Pipercross Airfilter Flapper mod Rear LED light conversion Radiator Guard Rear Sets
Do u think the bike needs the MC or is it just for the bling factor? Personally I can't fault the brakes on mine. Although granted I don't use them anywhere near they're limit.
Purely bling factor at the moment mate lol .. The brakes are good but my bike is new . I had the same MC on my 600 and it was also good for 8000 miles and when it went bad i couldn't find a rebuild kit for it anywhere . The brembo rebuild kits are every where so that also but mainly bling factor lol
Ive been looking to upgrade my brakes, braided lines and pads for extra bite and some pazzo shorties for bling and feel!! Not been on track yet with mine but I'd say it's the bikes weakest link, riding hard on the road I think they fade a little?? I might have a shitter though!? Lol
The standard lines are poo. You can feel them swell when you apply the front brake, the Hel lines have fixed that for me. Good upgrade.
Jonny: I had the tyga guards on my gixer aswell. Really well made. Givover: I've seen good reviews on brembo sintered pads. Prob what I'll go for. Si: I'd normally do the brake lines aswell but I've heard it quite a job on the abs version.
Thanks Colin .I had the Brembo (Red) on my 08 and they were ok but in the past on other bikes i have used EBC fast road sintered and seem to get the affect on these more! .I like you read up about Brembo so thats why i got them .I will await more comments .Cheers Mike.
At colin, yeah I have tygaperformance hugger and chain guard, just got tank panels from zero limits, prob sprocket cover and maybe air tubes next
Got a replacement engine for mine, dunno what colour though. Don't want black, grey or silver. Summat loud I think. Also Aprilia RSV Mille tail unit, stainless hugger and undertray and gonna jack up the back end wirh a modded subframe. I have a new , home made silencer to try, long , thin , with a slashcut end to it. Summat different for a Streetfighter. May try an underseat zorst as well???
Hoping for early retirement next year mate. Got loads of zorsts to do for other people and some brackets n cissy bars for the cruiser guys. Haven't got time to go to work!!!
Ah well better doing something u love then mate. You should b busy enough over the winter time getting all that stuff done to the bike.
