Just an update on mine I have

fitted new cans - fooking loud
carbon belly pan
undertray
LED tail lights
smaller plate

ready to go on
SP1 front brakes
GSXR K6 master cylinder and lever

---

I only intended to fit the Blank plates...Generalyy I refuse to touch bike plastics... After thinking it out I took the plunge & fitted the Blanking plates then decided to go the whole hog and replaced the LED. Not for the faint hearted. All went back together very well...

Thanks for your offer Stu 8-)[/quote]

No worries - told you it was a doddle - looks like I've accidently volenteered myself to do someone a custom led light on carbon fibre tails section :-/

Reckon my rear end looks cute :-* :-*

Yep - I am currently playing with various types of exhausts to see what I like - currently twin high level, next single low, then trying single high (both sides incase I decide to do single swing arm if it doesn't become a track bike)

Nice,,i got Quill exhausts, nice and loud,without baffl's in (of course)

i also got a LED tail light that i need some advice on fitting, ive had a look but it just seems diff ,or it could be missing some thing ??

been trying to find a place to get a aftermarket CCT,

Might have a trip up to GW to see ya ;)

I'll give you a sound off once I've sorted my hanger out - be good to see if mine are loud ;)

LED light you need to take off the bulb holder from your old one

Yeah pop in anytime (don't hit the post next time :P)

Rear Tail light easy fit, in fact back in 2001 Clear Alternatives used my Firestorm picy to advertise their very first led tail light :D

We all spotted you - being polite we turned away before laughing - if it was clearer on the cctv we would have you tubed it [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

but you did ride off like nothing happened 8-)

omg on cctv :-[ it wasnt me then lol :D

So i guess your the man to know if i ever get any prob's [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

just fitted a new avon AM26 Roadrider rear tyre to the old tbird,now bearing in mind the bike is 52yrs old it was a toss up between an avon SM for that authentic look or a modern tyre with the benifits in handling.
glad i went for the roadrider as the bike used to track at the slightest change in road surface ie grooves/roadworks etc,and i havent noticed it yet with the new tyre so think i will change the speedmaster i have up front for a roadrider aswell [smiley=happy.gif]

Yep I know my way around a VTR :)

A week or so ago the LED rear light I ordered arrived, and here are some before and after shots.

And then today, finally I have got round to changing my indicators from the huge ugly standard ones to some tiny (in comparison) LED ones.

http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._5644507_n.jpg

http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._3206750_n.jpg

Seems I put the front two on 180 degrees the wrong way round so will turn them over tomorrow, and just have to wait for the new relay to arrive so they don't flash quick enough to trigger a fit in an epileptic. But its amazing how much just these tiny changes has altered the look of the whole bike!

Next, the silencer, and then I am done with mods.

A pair of brand new Arata cans now adorn my R1, replacing the Micron cans that came with the bike.

They give off a lovely sound and look far better than the Microns 8-)

Also got some black CRG levers to fit as well. Foldable jobbies like I had on my 6r.

Apart from some new tyres (power one's maybe....2CT's at least) and maybe a new screen, that is it for me and the bike for the forseeable future.
