From my appearance thread:









Performance Mods:
New commuter tires (Challengers....sucky)
EBC brake pads front and back
gs750 brake reservoir
gsxr controls with "flash to pass"
Cafe racer bar
Unipod filters
rejet (mains at 35...too rich. pilots at 22.5)
Home made 2into1 header
Header wrap
Two Brothers racing pipe (LOUD!!!)
GSXR shifter/home made linkage
GS750 rectifier assembly.
front shock seals and 20w oil
Rear shocks by Emgo

Soon to come:
Home made rear sets
Clip-on bars
either a smaller rear sprocket or larger front one (sucks to cruise at 7000 rpm on the freeway)
modern front end
Better rubber
repositioned header (already leaning over too far)

nice tail light. I used the same one but stuck it in the stock housing, friggen bright. mean looking bike though. does it suck the blood out of chickens in the neigborhood at night?

Are those the stock speedo and tach? I've never seen orange ones before O.o

[curseboy]

bike is way loud. the gauges were the ones inside the stock dash panel. the bushing inside the tach died, so I replaced it with the internals of the tach from the gs750...which also died. I am moving to an electronic one

What tank is that??

I when from the 16t front to a 17t and it dropped the rpms by about 500 on the freeway, but top end suffered some because the motor just can't pull the taller sprocket in 6th gear. I will be going with a 15t and a 38t to try to get the gear ratio where I want it.

Mate, can I ask where you sourced the taillight?? Am looking at doing something similar and that light will suit what I am after perfectly.

Ha! That question kept me up for many nights....finally found out it came from a Honda CX500C

I bought the taillight at a local Autozone...anywhere where they sell towing accessories, as it was meant for a towed-trailer.
