nixy Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 That looks It's amazing how something as simple as crash bobbins can make such a big difference. When my son crashed earlier this year the bobbins protected so much of the side plastic it was amazing - that's what resulted in him getting a good price for the salvage when he sold it. Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 Nice Kev Bet it sounds the muts with those Termies. Quote
Kev946 Posted November 24, 2008 Author Posted November 24, 2008 Thanks guys. REally pleased with the. It's transformed the look and sound of the bike. The next thing is a BMC filter and re-map. I'm not going the Power Commander route as I know a tuner who can re-map the ECU direct. It is running a bit lean I reckon as it pops on over run, but sounds cool though. Crash bungs a must. I has an off at Mallory park on my 02 R1 and the damage was minimal. Quote
sl114 Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Do you look like a power ranger when you ride it? What is a chicken strip? Quote
Zedrush Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Do you look like a power ranger when you ride it? What is a chicken strip? protectors on the side of the bike Kev got to say that is absolutely stunning, really is, congrats mate Quote
ARphotographs Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 What is a chicken strip? protectors on the side of the bike nope they are crash bungs, chicken strips are the strips of the tyre that you have not lent the bike over enough for it to wear away the rubber. as you can see on the back tyre close to the edges there is about an inch?? (not sure in measurments from the photo) of tyre that looks a different colour, those are the strips. Adam Quote
sl114 Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Ah that makes sense, Kev, get that knee down! Quote
nixy Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 can't beat a man in leathers.............sorry but us girls don't often get the opportunity! Quote

Looks like it's been ridden by someone who knows what he's doing... Nice and shredded. Thanks everyone for the compliments. Next upgrade after a re-map is some short billet levers in gold of course... Then I'm done, I don't like to see a new bike too modded, just subtle. Quote
