Title: My S2R1000. Duck Soup!
Post by: Mash on June 09, 2009, 08:31:04 AM
I've had this bike since last year.  It was nearly stock when I got it, and I've done a few things to it since then. It's a pleasure to ride, offers great performance and really gets a lot of attention wherever I go.  Thanks for looking.

Sweet looking scooter! Red/Red is just a classic great combo. Like the mirrors? I got the Monstrack, not to functional but I liked the look. A bit more vibration than I would like. Cool ride Mash  [thumbsup]

Cool!
+1 on the factory pegs gone to black and the oil guage/filler. Neat license plate too!

thanks for all the nice comments!  I like the mirrors a lot.  Zero vibration and just the right amount of convex surface.  Where they're mounted, I get a good view of my 6 without seeing only my arm and shoulder. They mount to the bar itself and are rock solid.  The Rizoma sport grips leave just enough room at the end of the bar for the mirrors to hold on to.  If I was using some other kind of mirror, I'd be pissed that the grips are too short.

I just had the rearsets and a few other things powdercoated locally.  One of my next mods is to move the starter and temp sensor wire off the belt cover. I already rerouted the oil cooler lines under the head, using the lines from a hypermotard.

I'm also thinking about chopping the termi cans about a third shorter, but since I ride this bike every day, I'm concerned about the noise level going up.
