Upgrades begin proper this time!

[Disco]

Sorry no pics at this point, but my bike affectionately known as 'Trinity', is commencing a very subtle change in appearance, which I expect will be complete in the next 3-6 months.

Since buying her new in Feb 2008, modding has only gone as far as:

Keiti Carbon look tank protector
Oggy Knobs
R&G tail tidy

Today I bought a clear indicator lens kit. The buggers are identical (even if they are technically for an R6), but the screw holes are off by about 3-4mm! So im having a beer standing next to the bike & posting my lil whinge at the same time.

Anyway, thats the relatively boring purchase from today. On order are a full set of Goodridge braided brake lines, in black of course to maintain the understated look of my bike.

Now back to working out what i'll do about those flashers. Maybe its time to try a hammer....

silicon around them should do the trick :thumbup:

Where did you get the brake lines from if I may ask?

 

[Disco]

Call me a knob, getting them from the dealership where I bought bike. So paying a little too much.

Damn those impulse buys :spank:

Only went there to check out Pazzo's, but they don't have the colour combo I want. (and they wanted $275 a pair!)

So next month, will order from Mat Mladin a set :thumbup:

Just waiting for a set of these to arrive for the XJR , wait a bit for a full review :thumbup: Yes i bought the XJR ones but im sure they are all the same part YAMAHA FZ6 FAZER FZ6N 04-10 CNC Brake & Clutch Levers - eBay (item 280534242029 end time Aug-12-10 10:23:22 PDT)

I got a quote on Pazzo's at our local ripoff merchant back when I had the FZ6, and they were asking, $260-ish a side...lol....you can see why I didn't snap them up at that price....lol.

Yea I got my pazzo's for 209 a pair free shipping from BGW, they have gone up to 230 now however.

Me too,cheapest in Oz

 

[Kazza]

Me too. Now they've gone up - I was going to buy some for Mikes XJR, but, he can buy his own now

 

[Kriswithak]

Yea I was glad I got in when I did, they are still a good deal (hard to beat with shipping from the US) especially for a local dealer with such fast delivery!

What type of fittings did you order with your braided lines, standard, or stainless....the stainless are high grade stainless, and worth the textra dollars, they dont rust!

:thumbup:

 

[Disco]

I just got them today (been in FNQ for 2 weeks).

They look the ducks guts :thumbup:

I ordered standard fittings which I think were supposed to be zinc, but they look/feel like stainless.

I have the Goodridge braided lines...they are exceptional quality, and after 2 years, they work and look as new....very good quality kit indeed...great choice!
