[Discussion] Technical - Cosmetic Modifications

[Rider Saje]

Yupz... A few frens sent thee and job was gd...

 

Thanks bro. Will look them up for a quotation

[epicflame37]

Hey bros new to the s4 scene here. Anyone can recommend one shop which do all these cosmetic things? I want to add a rear hugger, belly pan(though I have concerns if my stainless steel headers will allow that), replace the rear mud guard with a bracket but with license plate light and also mounting for a pair of led signal lights, a carbon fiber style sticker to cover my tank fuel cap and also sticker to cover the black plastic parts of my speedometers. Also can I change the front signal lights to led also without it looking like ****?

 

u got a big project coming along... nice idea.. we will be waiting for pics of the end product bro..

While getting clipons put on my bike I ordered a set of koso mirrors from ebay but in the end didn't like the way they looked so reverted back to stock. I was undecided whether to go bar end or standard mounting mirrors. I was reserved with going for bar end mirrors as they add extra width to the bike which would mean extra care would be needed when riding between traffic.

 

After seeing rizoma reverse retro mirrors the looks grew on me and wanted to buy them until I saw the price which was close to AUD 300 locally or AUD 240 if bought from overseas.

 

Then I stumbled upon rideitmoto who sell knockoffs of the same mirrors delivered for USD 79. This was a bargain and worth the punt.

 

While the ends are facing in these mirrors are same as stock.

I will still make minor adjustments to the mirror so they don't touch my gloves when turned in as my gloves have a large hump on them (a* gp pro) across the knuckles. May also look at getting shorty levers to eliminate this.

While the ends are facing out they probably add 4cm extra width on each side.

The other good thing when ends are facing out is that I don't need to move my head or arms or any body part for that matter to check my rear view and the viewing area is great. It gives less of a blind spot as well.

Hi warrior.c.o.n.p, sweet as you're gonna like them I'm sure Yes it does look like sports classic gt. I bought the windshield direct thru Honda. You can buy the windshield direct thru Japan Webike sell the screen for SDG204. If you order a few other parts you will get delivery for free. Post some pics of your bar end mirror setup for us to see.

I bought a pair of these levers from ebay seller which is also the same seller as last link above.

 

Tried fitting them on my bike, the clutch lever fit but the brake lever didn't. Due to my model being abs the brake lever has a circle part which latches on to a knob on the bike. Pics below will give a clearer indication.

 

I've since been refunded from the seller and am looking for another set of cnc machined normal or shorty levers. Any revo abs riders out there change their levers, if so can you post some ebay links of sellers please.

 

Stock and ebay cnc brake lever:

same, bought similar pair of lever but mine worst the brake lever pushes against the knob of the master cylinder... mean to say the brake pump keep actuating and causes my front wheel to "lock" even the lever ain't depressed.

What I don't like about the lever is that its too thick, OEM still the best...

Had the same issue and didn't put on the brake lever for safety reasons.

Didn't know there was a difference between the brake lever of abs and non abs revo but have since found out there is. Clutch levers are the same on both.

Below links maybe of use (they're the brake lever for revo abs)

I am currently getting my rims & rear sets (including passenger pegs) powder coated. The whole process takes about a week.

I got quotes per rim ranging from AUD30-100 which includes sandblasting and all the preparation required.

[jjames]

Hi fazli.. Eversucess has? Where are these guys located?

[World Misanthropy]
