Hey All! Just wanted to show off the new bike and ask for any suggestions as far as appearance. As of right now it only has a rear fender delete and frame & axle sliders. With the exception of some aftermarket H7 bulbs the rest of the bike is bone stock.

I am looking into flushmounts, shorty levers, and maybe an exhaust so any suggestions you may have would be greatly appreciated! For the flushmounts I am looking for something that can be seen (at least partially) from the front, the short levers I am thinking black/red eBay adjustable levers, and exhaust would have to be a short-can style.

Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't necessarily go for shorty levers unless you absolutely have to have them. And if you do....I would def. stay away from the ebay ones

Nice bike.

Thanks Guys!

I am more so trying to eliminate the play in the clutch with the stock levers, so whether they be shorty or standard, they just have to be very adjustable.

watsen leds for indicators, shorty levers are the way to go in my opinion.

Nice bike! BTW where in PA do you live? i live about 5 minutes from Philly airport, maybe we could meet up for a ride. I have some suggestions. I had MisterJJ do my projector mod and it made a big difference in the look. Looks really evil.

Pittsburgh...sounds like a hellish turnpike ride :(

...and yeah, lights are a big thing for me too. I have been looking into someone doing the FX35 mod for me. I LOVE the way it looks, and I've never had a car WITHOUT HID's since I got a set on my E36 M3...i'm missing them very badly with the bike.
