Very nice upgrade!

 

Those updated 9's look nice...

 

Ticked over the big 1-0 on the odometer going to work

Also ordered the only "mod" that I will be doing for quite some time, some Woodcraft 6mm spools so I can complete maintenance.

Only other thing I might do is remove the red reflectors from the license plate fender just to clean it up a little bit. But anything I do will have to cost no monies...

Matt

 

Take those front fork reflectors off too. Think that was the first thing I did to my FZ.

 

I did take a quick peek at those the other day at the dealer and they seem to be part of the bracket for ABS (or something else, can't remember) so can't be removed. But I'll take another look soon.

Matt

 

just going to leave this here. Let me know if you need some good websites for parts later. I have a bunch bookmarked.

also, im on www.fz09.org Same username

 

Interesting. Must be slightly different than the 07 considering mine doesn't even have ABS haha

 

Looks like I can take the front reflectors off, but it's hard to see the way they designed the bracket. I'll take a closer look at some point but I'm more excited about just riding it

Sold the Ninja and swapped plates, and removed the rear reflectors. It cleans up the fender a little bit. Not great but it looks better.

Also hit my first 50 miles today. Only another 550 miles of true break in...





Matt

 

looks a lot better with out the reflectors

 

Also called Yamaha and confirmed the handlebar mount recall was already completed at the dealer prior to sale, and there's no other open recalls right now, so all good on that front.

Matt

 

you will need Rhino Moto Bar end adapters to use these mirrors. If you dont mind a little scuff, Ill sell you mine for $30.

Don't think you understood when I said I have no monies for anything and it's going to stay stock for a long time

Matt

 

even for the bar end adapters?

 

"No monies"

I just spend almost 10 grand on the bike, I can't afford anything I don't need right now

Matt

 

in the back of your mind, youre going to wish you lived in the UK and bought this.. I know @AR15xAR10 does

 

FZ looks better
