Smile Started modifying...

Ok, here it is, finally decided where to order from (list will be posted later still didn't decide which of what I like better ), I chose podiumparts.com, because they have almost everything I would love to have on my s1krr (except for Taylor Made exhaust). So a few days ago placed an order for some R&G accessories (see attached pics) still waiting for tail tidy, next on the line will be all of the case covers (alternator, clutch and generator) and passenger rearset block-offs, also R&G...





Now, all this goodies will go on my bike probably tomorrow, waiting for tail tidy...
Also will try arrange for my windscreen to get tinted tomorrow.

Will post updates as follows.

And at the end one more picture - 20 minutes ride = fresh smile on my face...

Ok, apparently tail tidy came in late in evening when I was at work, so here are pictures of tail tidy:



After I woke up today I only had only 1 hour (had to leave to work) of spare time to get staff installed, So I installed everything except tail tidy. By the time I got my hands on tail tidy it was time to leave... so here are pictures of installed accessories. Sorry for quality of pictures, will take better one when will be giving a first bath to my BumbleBeeBeast...









The only thing which concerned were frame inserts, I think I may have to order a spare ones just in case if I will loose one of them. Anyone had any issues with R&G frame inserts?

I have the R&G frame sliders on mine,those inserts shouldn't come out,they are a really nice tight fit.

Umm, how many bikes do you have? Is there a color shift in your pix? I see the "BumbleBeeBeast" yellow bike, and then a white silver one being modded. Did you get two, one for the street and the other for the track?

Ok, you talking about frame inserts? If so I have no idea how you can make then be on the same level with the frame as mine did go fully in, maybe I'm just doing something wrong? Can you attach picture so I could see how exactly they have to sit in... Thank you.

No, I have only one motorcycle, and yes it was a color shift, I do apologize for the quality of pictures taken by iPhone in the garage... will take more picturs with my camera after I will give my BumbleBeeBeast a bath.

But I'm thinking about starting building a bike for the track, but can not decide between bike for the track and BMW cafe racer yet... probably will go for track bike but it will be either R6 or CBR600RR... depends on the initial cost of the frame...

Ok, yesterday finally got my hands on tail tidy. Well it was easy to take old tail off as a whole... I didn't get any blinkers as I wanted to use my stock ones, but I don't think anybody here on the board mentioned that you have to take blinkers apart to get just wiring off (I'm not complaining, just was surprised... sort off )





Well, and here it is after reassembling with R&G tail tidy...

If you do get them be careful putting them in, I almost f*#$%d mine up, probably will order another set just in case. They add touch to the look of the bike.
