Just thought this would be a cool new topic. If there is already one in existence please let me know so I can delete this one, or a mod can do it. As for me I finished my under tail project and rode the crap out of it.

i finnished up my solo seat project , cover in place of the passenger seat. I just had to disgard the mounting hardware, it would have closed off my "glove compartment" with my warm winter gloves and the access to my battery tender hook up. I had to make the brackets adjustable and then i had to make them really trick looking/lightened with milled out sections.

guys from motoskin came by and installed venture shield clear bra
I'm interested in a clear protective "bra" for my bike after it gets painted. How much was it and can this be installed by yourself? Bike looks good.

I had a LeoVince High Mount SO, Clear Alternatives Integrated Tail light and Fender Eliminator installed. Done modding for a while.

Ninja EX500 adjustable clutch lever (cut and shortened, then sanded to match the stock brake). Looking for someone who snapped a brake lever so he/she can give it to me, and I can scavenge it for a shorty to see how I like it before commiting to Pazzo's. Patiently waiting for the 2 Bros CF exhaust I scored in the SVR ads...

PM Me. I think I still have the OEM levers from my ASV swap. The brake has a little rash, but it sounds like you will amputate that part anyway.

Pulled the baffle out of the Leo Vince. (Not as easy as I thought it would be). Ahhh, what a sweet melody she make a now. Mamma mia.

Put the ZX14 shock on last night, washed it this morning and then went for a 65 mile shake down run. Quite the difference in the rear end! I need to do the front ASAP!

I also did a mod that will get me at least a billion more HP and top speed of 627 mph! What is it you ask? Well, you know those 2 wires that go to the clutch switch, the ones with the yellow stripe on them, I always hated how they looked "unfinished". All the other wires have heat shrink on them and those 2 sticking out don't! So, I put some heat shrink on them and they look way better! So at least 627 mph!

I can beat that... I bridged out the connector ages ago after the switch broke... But it annoyed me to have that wire still there. So a while back, I traced the wires back into the main loom and removed the whole section, saving about 3 feet of wire and at least 10 grams :eek:
