Hi Guys and Girls, it's been a while since I last posted. But I have been busy! To give you an idea, I've installed the following,
Smoked Integrated Tail light,
New decals, while removing old white ones,
Sportisi Rear Hugger,
Sportisi GP rear seat cowl,
and additional Flush mount rear indicators.

To refresh on the other Mods done - GSXR exhaust,Michelin Sport pilot tyres,Carbi's shimmed,snorkel removed.
Pics below!:D

Previous owner fitted the rear tyre before I bought it, its a 130/80, which really stuffs up the fitment of the rearhugger, Ztrack and my mate Dave were able to guide and help me in the right direction, so thanks guys!!

Let me hear your comments!!!

Thanks guys, My mate Dave done all the hard work on the exhaust, it was done in like an hour. Not hard if you take your time and check everything first! ( and have someone who knows what they're doing!)

Haha, I cleaned the chain just after the pics were taken!!:D

What spikes are you talking about? I had spikes on the end of the handle grips, but had them lathed off, cause they were too dangerous :cool:

For the price of stock GSXR mufflers, I might just pick one up and try it out.... how does it sound

Is that a new swingarm I see too or is it just a part of the hugger?
Who'd you pick up your rear flushmount signals from? Bike looks sharp!

Its actually pretty loud(plenty of complaints from the Wife!!) I may need to put some kind of silencer in there one day!!

Swing arm is covered by the base section of the hugger, Ztrack can give you more details. The rear indicators are from Narva http://www.narva.com.au/ These are avaiable from any electonics or automotive store'
Not sure if this brand is available in the US, look under LED truck and trail lights. They are not as bright as I would like, not sure if enough power is getting through. I have resistors in the lines instead of a new flasher unit, not sure if that makes a difference, maybe someone can help me with that?

Much appreciated!
