After adding things to the bike and modding here n there a little I feel the need to share what I think is my half way point to making this MY bike --- well -- mostly.
the before pic. with the leo | pc3 | integrated leds | and FE early Jan.
From time to time I was on the posts here ant the other fz forum looking for ideas and throughout the winter I did the lars AB mod | ais block cd style | cd flies | a led relay for the fast blinking "helped the sequential tail to work right" and pealed off the leo sticker from the pipe only because of the cop shop being only 75ft away from my house and since Wisconsin gov is broke I don't need any random ticket tax
the during the winter cold pics. rest of Jan to Mar. ish
There was a week in there where it was in the 45-50f range so I took it out for my first ride and was happy with it, v-smooth and no noticeable fuel cut but then again I was taking it ez and didn't go over 6k. Took the wife and kids for a ride except my little girl who still pulls the cutest tricks she knows on me about it.
1 of the days I took it for a 90 mi ride and wanted to see what shes got. No wot wheelies and power wasn't what I was hoping for but I also have this pc3 that has notes saying 06 stock so im thinking the first owner got it probably ebay but never dynoed and the map im hoping is way off from where it should be. The seat was not what I or anyone with me wanted to sit on and after looking on posts again I decided the topsellerie was the 1, short and long.
pics of the givi v46 top | topsellerie seat | GIPRO x-type witch I use more for a rev warning light than a gear indicator | and a under a buck win off ebay red oil cap
Now there was some problems along the way.
Put bike together and forgot to reconnect the air sensor.
Tapped the wrong gray wire on the gipro install.
Trouble getting Duke's map to save on pc3 " the sluggish med and top end was a lot better after that"
And the Givi bracket was the worse but I think it was because my tail is all jacked up.
I mean the frame that holds the tail to the back end is either twisted er something im not sure but heres some pic of what I mean
Noone notices it when rideing and the pic here is all screwy.
The right side was nice n straight but took 1/4" worth of washers to make the left side connect.
I orderd a backrest for the v46 but haven't used it yet and might just offer to sell here if wife is comfy without.
Next ima prob guna try sprocket and chain swaps w/speedohealer and maybe a red carbon sheet to cover the passenger foot scraps when mount and dismount. "remember they are only kids"
