I give them mine if I don't have another with me. I'd rather run the risk than let them run it.

I'll venture a guess the only thing to touch that passenger seat was another set of cock and balls.

Best cheap mod. Grip heaters.

How, Oh how did I ever live without them......

Next would be the HID light conversion. It's still dark in the morning when I leave for work a big portion of the year and a good headlight is worth it's weight in gold here in deer country. You just don't realize how lacking a std. halogen bulb is until you have a HID bulb burning in there.

Most after market clipons don't have a place to mount a reservoir at all

Favorite cheap mod-seat cover. Local upholstery shop has sample squares for $1, and they are just big enough to do a motorcycle seat. I change seats every few months for a new look, and not a lot of ppl have custom seats, so it stands out

got any pics?

I like the idea of having 90 degree vavle stems.

I'll order wheel tape if they make it in black so you can't see it but it'l be reflective making me a little more visable

Sprockets = best bang for your buck.

Im just trying to get some ideas what to buy next for my bike.

Riding ability, it costs nothing and will improve the quality of the machine unbelievably.

**cirsory** · 11-17-2012, 11:31 PM

r6 throttle tube
-1 front sprocket
gp shift pattern
most noticeable changes for the least amount.

Spongebob brake reservoir cover. Best JuJu ever. (Knock on wood)...I haven't had a single injury in 3.5 years (since the first time I used Spongebob). The JuJu is so strong, that i won't ride without him. I bought 27 spare Spongebob's in case that one somehow comes off.

I don't wanna jinx it man...but isn't that cheating somehow?

TOEJAM · 11-18-2012, 04:49 AM

I was scared of that. But WERA's rulebook doesn't say anything about Spongebob rendering a bike illegal for Superstock, so i think im good.

Cheapest mod on my bikes have been custom rear fender eliminator, made them myself while at work and it is FREE.

oldgixxer · 11-18-2012, 06:50 AM

Have a few that I do,very simple but effective.
- a nice set of Michelin Power Ones
- one tooth down on the front sprocket
-adjust clutch/brake levers on clip ons up/down for a better feel
-paint the silver footpeg/passenger footpeg assemblys black to match the frame
-adjust the suspension for my fat ass
-rebuild the engine&add a big ass turbo
