With her tail back on *phew*


The clutch slider (which incidentally doesn't get in the way at ALL )


And the new flushie fronts

Looks good.
Question on the clutch cover slider. In the pic it looks like it is further in than the case cover? I'm guessing that it is just the angle of the pic??

Awesome mods Neebs!

What made you go with Tech Spec over Stomp Grip? Looks to be more or less the same, but I haven't seen Tech Spec too often.

Thanks!

I think it's about even with the case cover.

Chris had the stomp grips on his 900RR and he wasn't thrilled with them. When he got HIS R1 he went with the Tech Spec grips instead. I just liked that they're similar in texture to the bodywork just below the tank, so they "blend" well.

Solid. But why the gold adjusters on the levers?

The tops of the fork bolts are gold, and the bolts on the brake calipers are gold, so I went with that as my accent color.

We have this argument Alot within my Group of riding friends...But you went with Long Pazzo's not Shortys...and basically the argument is whats the point if basically the factory levers are longs as well...And I really like the feel of shortys...To each there won, Bike looks sharp...If the clutch slider is about even...then whats the point?

I do like the gold adjuster on the Pazzo's though.
