  • Cool!
    About the tach: read here: Naked - The Sequel - Page 17 - Sportbikes.net

    NOTE: I heard KOSO changed a bunch of stuff on their speedos since I had bought mine, so don't be surprised if you don't see exactly what I am describing...

    Let us know how it goes...
    I would actually rather convertibars or similar if I had $300 to spend, that way I could mount them under the triple and have a more aggressive ride position while not hitting the gas tank with my thumbs.
    3-4 inches if I remember right... cut 1inch off first with a dremel without worrying about how it looks... then use that piece to mark the new line 2-3 inches further back, and finally cut following that line... it's a bit tricky to cut the asymmetric sides, but you'll figure it out (just make sure to keep the mounting holes intact). Good luck :)
    Thanks again for the links! I spent some time awhile back looking for one but had no luck. I think maybe I found some internationally but the price was never right. Hopefully, it will now be here soon and I can post some pics! :)
    Thanks Geoff!! Your comments are too kind. Sadly, no it hasne't appeared in amy magazines :(. I did submitt for Bike oF The Month a while back but I guess the pics i took wern't that good? Oh well. Maybe I'll see if a local biker magazine, Canadian Biker, wants to do a story on it!
    Yep, ceramic coating cost about the same here....well wortth it, the results are stunning....and they are easier to clean.
    Easy, you take them off the bike and drop them at a shop that does ceramic coating :) And yes, it was Wolfman...
    about $350 australian....bargain i reckon! would hate to try and do it myself...would be a world of trouble!
    I took the wheels off, took tyres, valves, and brake discs off. Then I sent them off to a professional metal polisher...a word of warning, they are hard to keep clean, and ate hard to clean, both access wise, and in terms of physical effort polishing with autosol, or similar product...they really require you to take wheels off at least once every couple of months to give them a decent clean between regular weekly wipe downs...if you don't keep them clean, they will stain, and pit!!!

    Unless you are noteably anally retentive about keeping your bike clean like me, you WILL find it a huge pain in the A to have polished wheels... But damn they look great when sparkling in the sun!
    Ok, i love my rearsets...valtermoto, with the optional backset plate..coupled with the drag bars, give me a better sports riding position, without turning the bike into a head down bum up sportsbike, also give me much better ground clearance for cornering when riding hard, or at the track.

    As for my mirrors, they are MCS brand, and as for Australia, they are available in just about every bike shop for about $60 for the pair...work great, and a cheap alternative compared to the Rizoma, or other equivalent.
    Yo Geoff, I think you should get the CRG Hindsight LS... they're very well made and provide sufficient visibility imo (not awesome, but OK).
    Cheers for the comment Geoff.
    Yeah your right,I don't think the grill would suit yours.
    As I said,yours is like an ultra modern cafe racer!
    Sweet bike fella. :thumbup:
