Title: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: Spider on July 21, 2009, 01:30:23 AM how's this for an idea....
we take a picture of a close up section (not the whole bloody bike you drongo!) of our machines...and then other's have to guess what's modded....first person in gets to start the list....and if they miss one the next person has to have a go. I thought of this whilst looking down today at the lights....in some of our machines there are lot's of non-stock bits in small amount of space... Melvin should start! Matty? good way to show the amount of detail some of the owners go to? Title: Re: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: brimo on July 21, 2009, 11:19:46 AM I could post a pic of my bike and you could play "find the mod" anyone that finds the mod get's all the [bacon] they can eat for a month.

Maybe if you rolled them out into the light we'd have a better chance and picking where you'd spent your $$$. It's all in the details though and everyone does it different. So is it a fork upgrade or just adjusters? Or am I not reading right on my little phone screen Title: Re: name the mods!

Lenses are original. Title: Re: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: Jukie on August 25, 2009, 11:50:07 AM cant really tell but what about the levers
Title: Re: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: Yellow Meanie on August 27, 2009, 10:28:37 PM Sorry Jukie, levers are stock.
Clue for the last two: Headlight / Frame Title: Re: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: Betty on August 27, 2009, 11:55:08 PM Headlight rim & frame plugs
Title: Re: name the mods! (an entertaining thread idea) Post by: Yellow Meanie on August 28, 2009, 12:40:06 AM Frame plugs - from Dannog [thumbsup]
Headlight rim - "Bah-bow" (corny gameshow "wrong" sound) Almost though Betty. The headlight brackets have been painted black. And the light and fairing have been lowered to fit the clip-ons :P |
