Re: Hello all
Thanks guys, only a short list of mods so far but here they are, btw none of which i did myself...
The bike started its life as matte grey, sent it to DreamMachine for the Swan colours..
Carbon Akra pipes replaced standard pipes.
Cat removed and Y-pipe added.
Rear seat cowl added.
Tail tidy...
What i would like to do...
Flash tune, once they figure out how to keep the immobiliser.
Replace front break and clutch levers.
Remove rear footrests, rear break res.
Carbon wheels, if i can get them cheap enough.
Im sure theres things im missing but they will do for now. The other thing i'd love to learn would be more able when it comes to working on my bike, ive been riding now for many years having passed my test in the 90's but have sadly never been interested in the mechanics until now
