New Upgrades - Fender Eliminator, Tank Pad, Tank Overlay Stickers

bbjminardo · March 17th, 2013, 02:36 PM

I have done some of my top cheap mods that I've wanted to do.
So far:
Have the tank sticker overlays on my tank. Love the solid black look.
Cant tell they are even there unless your right on top of them.

Did the fender eliminator chop, just did it myself so I wouldn't be spending a stupid amount of money on something you can do yourself for free.

I also got a super nice tank pad that had 4 separate pieces, two main sticker that go straight in the middle and then two smaller pieces that I set more on the side of the tank to cover up a small dent in the tank and it worked perfect.

Also took off the Ninja Stickers.

I spent about 40 bucks and love the difference it has made in changing it into a solid clean simple black bike.

Looks great. The tank stickers turned out better than I thought they would. You must have a steady hand because they look perfect. I did the same thing to my rear fender, but ditched the reflectors. I also couldn't justify the money for a fender eliminator. Keep up the good work

Lookin' good.

I am sure it's gonna look even sexier once those flush mounts get in.

Thanks man, those tank stickers are a pain! lol I spent about 20 minutes lining them up and getting them exactly over the letters. But yea back red reflectors didn't ever bother me but maybe I will have to take them off.

Good stuff dude. Looks nice. I just did a fender chop like yours, and I installed an alarm as well. Have fun!

Are you still doing the red grill inserts on the bike. You can chop that fender off even further and get a bolt light kit in black and a L bracket and make a plate mount for under $10 bucks.

Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TisxFiNAvhc watch around the 2:55 mark for the fender cut.

And this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svkbvonJSGA this is what I am doing without the rear turn signals.
