Prolly been asked but hey, it's deep down in the archives somewhere and i'm sure we've got new memebers since then.....anyways whats your favorite mod on your bike and whats the most useful/functional mod you've installed......and of course... :needpics:
 
SW Motek bar riser-bar back.....changed everything about my stance
and has more than doubled my comfort time in the saddle


google is your friend for pics :)
 
I came from riding a cruiser (Vulcan 750) So my mods are all comfort orientated. I should mention that I have a f&%#ed up back from surgery a few years back, which just means I get soar quickly.

So the best mod would be the Scorpion Exhaust.

The most useful has to be the Givi side cases. I went to the grocery store last night and left with 3 bags of groceries and a small bag of charcoal. No problem!

For long trips it's a toss up between the TS seat and the throttlemeister.

The runners up: adjustable pegs, & Bar risers.
 
Beside 43's headlight mod I would have to say the garage door opener that I have rigged up to the brake light. Two quick (light) taps on the brake and the door opens. I don't have to fumble with trying to ge the opener out of my tank bag. It's really quite convenient.

Doc
 
I'm also going to have to go with Givi case. Definitely the most useful of all the mods I've made. Lets me use the bike more often since it's waterproof, takes few seconds to put on really acts like a pretty sizable trunk :thumbup:

Favorite mod : LeoVince's :D

Most useful mod : 15t front sprocket (really changed the bikes acceleration) I recommend this to anyone who doesn't go on long trips, as it adds a rpm's on the same speed!
 
My brake mod's...more a bunch of changes to get much better front braking performance...

Radial front brake master cylinder, Radial brake calipers & adaptors, Braided lines. just awesome!

2nd...and not far behind, the Valtermoto Rearsets.

:thumbup:
 
I missed this thread the first time around.. so here are mine, ranked

1) Leo Vince

3) Motech Risers
4) 15t sprocket

just kidding
 
I de-badged the bike, I do that with all my vehicles, makes them clean, people are like..what kind of bike is that..I say, why Yamaha of course..LOL..:D
 
I would have to say my R6 cam mod with manual chain tensioner. The bike is a lot smoother and no more chain rattle. Then my next would be gytr seat.

Sorry, no pics....

The best thing I did to the FZ6 was sorting out the suspension. Springs and damping in the front, and an Ohlins on the back.

The fairing is the thing I liked least. Far too much wind noise and turbulence. If the option had been available, I would have bought the FZ6 without fairing.... but that was not an option in the US.
 
HID Projector headlights. Hands down. They look like they flicker, people usually move out of my way, I can't remember the last time I had to honk at someone pulling out in front of me. And I can see awesome at night.
