Title: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: Billyzoom on February 28, 2012, 09:47:37 AM Just finished my last upgrades....all I plan on now is a Sargent seat and maybe some rearsets eventually.
Most of the mods I did are relatively stealthy....I like the idea of a subdued, classy, yet beastly bike. The last touches were the Rizoma mirrors, bar-end blinkers, and black braided lines and rizoma reservoirs all the way round. Definitely cleaned up the bar area.

Im with you on this one, to me, less is more. Very nice looking. Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: dark_duc on February 28, 2012, 11:06:29 AM Nice!

What is this thing you speak of? Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: scduc on February 28, 2012, 03:22:20 PM Nope, I think you have to black out the calipers, rear sets and triples. But if you decide not to, you still have one gorgeous bike. [bow_down] [drool]

makes me wanna get the hacksaw out & chop the tail on mine... u might think about taking off side covers & see how you like it... again, [thumbsup] Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: Billyzoom on March 02, 2012, 07:14:13 PM That is absolutely gorgeous. Which boom tubes tips did you go with? I actually traded for the boomtubes....I think they are the slash cut. I'm happy with them overall, but if my bike had less power I might have been driven more by a desire for a power boost in my exhaust decision. But for me they're perfect. Thanks for the comments!

How about a belly pan? Beautiful bike [thumbsup] Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: Billyzoom on March 04, 2012, 09:45:34 AM I've seen belly pans look good, but I'm more inclined to remove everything I can, rather than adding. Addition via subtraction, if you will.

Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: thurmanjr7 on March 06, 2012, 01:28:08 PM This bike is SOOOO well done. Absolutely gorgeous man! Makes me wanna drop stupid money on mine. It's crazy the difference a single sided swing arm and some Marchesinis make. Makes me sad I bought the 696 over the 796. :(

What is this thing you speak of? my 12-13 year old bike also does not understand the meaning of this phrase. Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: seanster on March 11, 2012, 05:18:06 PM Simple and clean... [clap]
A new front fender perhaps? Title: Re: Mods are just about done. Damn I love this bike. Post by: Billyzoom on March 12, 2012, 06:09:38 AM Simple and clean... [clap] A new front fender perhaps? What are you, psychic? :D I finished painting a new one yesterday. Small 999 style. Just realized I need to get rid of that oil cooler too....trying to figure out a way to move it out of sight...
