Ideas for better appearance??

2fidyswag · April 17th, 2013, 06:11 PM

I'm looking for ideas on what else I can do to my bike to make it appear even nicer than I like it now.

It's a special edition 2011 250r. I have frame sliders, fender eliminator kit, Parelli tires with an upgraded wider rear tire, retrofit headlight with 6000k HID in projectors with black housing, shorty clutch, blue LED speedometer lights, and an SBK Leo vince exhaust. I can't think of other things to do, thinking of maybe taking off the bike decals and looking to replace them with carbon fiber decals. Saw it before and it looked nice. Any ideas would be appreciated.

There is so much more you can do if you have the bank account to match.

Wider rims to go with your wider tires.

Bike is apart right now, but pictures later. Had an issue with my headlight. But my tires are a bit wide.I have 140/70 in the back. i actually bought the bike from someone who took it to the track all the time so I guess that's why. I didn't know people even got wider rims.

So if I get the wider rims, then I can get some big ass tires right? like 180 rear? Would it look dumb on a 250? Seems kind of pricey..

It will look super awesome and exponentially increase the stability of your bike, so much so that you won't even want to turn it! DO EET MANG

No. 160 is about as big as your going to get without a custom swingarm. see this thread

I'm aiming for this look sort of. I really like the carbon fiber. It looks like this guy has a carbon fiber hugger, but what's the name of the other piece? I's the plastic piece right above the side fairing. Sorry newb here.
