I know it's early.. End of season mods?

derf · 09-03-2009, 08:59 PM

Audio electronics, valentine one, ipod, bike to bike commo, and hardwire them all to my helmet. Looking at the same setup Tigger has.

Possibly a set of HID lights on the mirrors.

And ride a bunch

K&N air filter

Replacing my old airbox with an open one, it basically seals just the top and bottom of the filter and allows for free-er air flow, but has a slightly louder intake noise.

Putting the pegs from the lightning version of the Xb on my firebolt. They're an inch lower, and should help with my comfort.

That's all I have for now. Should be a cheap set of mods. Not costing more than 2-300 total.

Save yourself some money and take a dremel to your old airbox and buy the hardware at Lowes or whatever. I bought the open airbox kit from American Sportbike and all I ended up using was the hardware. Otherwise you have to figure out how to mount the servo thingy or get the servo eliminator... fuck that. BadWeb should have the details.

I'm not sure about that shit. I mean, the only thing I think it did for me was make me feel better that oil and shit wasn't running through my intake. If I had it to do over again, I probably wouldn't... unless of course I was taking my bike all apart anyway... like I did.

Oh for my bike... I hope to strip all the body work off, hack the subframe into a solo seat, put some PIAA's on the front, paint the tank black, maybe hack the exhaust, and then scare small children and old ladies.

Changing the oil and putting new tires on. That's it this year. That is IT I say.

OneSickPsycho · 09-03-2009, 10:53 PM

OH shit... I forgot... stainless brakelines, cable clutch conversion, and new tires...

Riding season is pretty much done here. Another month and itll be too cold for even short rides.

2 1/2 months, and there should be enough snow for the sled!

Inbetween is atv time!
