Here are some pics of my bike. Black 2007 S4Rs. I have Termi pipes, gold pazzo levers, gold clutch plate, vented clutch cover, CRG mirrors - tail coming off in a couple of weeks.

I would love your thoughts on changes I can make that will toughen the bike up. I want it to look a little meaner, little street-smarter. I am not going to paint it. I am not going to spend shed loads of $$ on it.

keen to hear your thoughts - thanks in advance 1 and all ;)

PS  - Sorry for the crappy quality pics.





This place feels nice. Black S4RS, CRG Barend mirrors, vented clutch cover, gold clutch plate, gold pazzo racing levers, full 50m termi system, little carbon extras....oh yeah ...almost forgot....ban corporate coffee!

My .02, replace the stock signals with some aftermarkets (maybe an integrated rear light), or at least get the Clear Alternative smoked lenses. 

take off the passenger pegs, or if you need them, coat them black.

Zero Gravity tinted screen. (or remove the fairing all together)

Paint the chrome ring around the headlight black. 

That's all I have for fairly cheap mods. 

Good looking bike!

Multistrada handguards and ditch the windshield.

Nice Bike,

Just ride it the way it is and enjoy.

lose the tail, front fairing and passenger pegs.. cheap and should clean up the looks

I do agree turn signals are an easy mod that changes the look straight away.
I'm a fan of a red tail light but that is just me. I also prefer orange indicators not smoke.
I have just put my bikini back on for now and am in the middle of a tail chop.
SS clutch springs and colored caps are a nice touch.

But really the list is endless. Another nice cheap mod is a brighter H4 globe.

Do NOT buy a Zero Gravity tinted windscreen -- just paint the inside of the stock one black.

Looks good so far. Chop the tail, go for some smaller indicator lamps and you're pretty well there. Maybe some frame sliders as well.

loose the front cowl, rear footpegs, paint the headligh trim ring, remove side panels, black out the sprocket cover and belt covers, lower the tach/ spedo, paint the clutch cover black, paint the rear sprocket carrier, and loose the inner rear fender over the back tire

I can't keep up with the list! LOL

Thanks all

I am going to complete the tail chop and get some indicators as a start.

I need to keep the passenger pegs or the wife will kill me  [bow_down]

And maybe see how it looks without the front fairing.

You guys rock  [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

ditch the signals  for some aftermaret ones, black out the headlight chrome ring.  Lose the screen, lower the headlight and get some clip-ons ;D

Nice job so far. You'll be surprised how much better she'll look without the screen and spraying the headlight ring. My next mod is to pc the passenger pegs. I'd love to lose 'em but my wife is a masochist and loves to ride with me. Good luck!  [thumbsup]
