What's your favorite Mod?

[ekim]

Just wondering what your favorite mods is to you ride.

The magnet that is on the cross bar of the center stand..

Its a bar magnet (quite powerful) used to trigger the red lights..

come in at a decent speed and then bit the brakes over teh pad and it will recognise your bike.

this has been the most useful mod for me, even though it sometimes fails on some really badly aligned detector loops.

Got to be:

1.  Progressive fork springs (rides like a whole different bike) and

2.  Rejetting (no more cold starts, better performance)

40 tooth Sprocket Specialist's Titan Tough hardened aluminum rear sprocket.

And 1980's Yamaha sportbike turnsignals.

Can I count the gixxer front end as one mod?!!

[TheGoodGuy]

i should add and say after the magnet, its teh suspension work of progressives up front and the katana shock out back.

[miket]

Bar end mirrors.

Fuzzy dice...definitely fuzzy dice.   :mrgreen:

oh, and ripping of the damned nasty tail decals.

I am partial to the random chrome parts and giant wing on the back and the "Type R" Stickers all over it.....Jeebus, I'm way too much of a ricer

looks like CasiCUA had a little too much fun with photo editing :dunno:

[CasiUSA]

Yeah, I love doing terrible Photo Editing jobs. You have to see the wife/booty call thread... :lol:

CasiCUA, what year is your bike? That's exactly what my 93  looked like when I bought it (minus the Type R sticker and wing - mine came with the pink splash graphic). Cool to see what it morphed from. Now it's on it's 3rd tank, 2nd tail...in fact I think the only things that are orininal are the frame and engine block.

i would have to say my pipe is my fav mod so far. makes the gs sound like it has a set if ya know what i mean

[CasiUSA]

It's a 1992, and as far as I know, all original.  Oh yea, I forgot also the original topic of this post. My bike is Completely stock. I did the Exhaust mod, but I think I cut too far in, and now the bike sounds like it is constantly farting. I'm getting a CBR or Yamaha OEM Canister to replace mine, should still see some kind of performance increase.  :dunno:

I must say that the greatest mod for the GS is...............(it makes it way cooler, faster, better, etc.)

The Fenderectomy!

It really should be the first mod any GS500 owner does. Period.

[yamahonkawazuki]

naah, didnt you know it gives you 20 extra hp if you leave that mudflap on? (runs and hides behind a sportster)  :nana:  :mrgreen:

my favorite of all is the s-m handlebars.

[pantablo]

wait.....



maybe the ducati fairing...makes me smile every time I walk up to her.

[Von Vester]

The dent in my gas tank, I swear I got a 5hp increase after that mod. It has to do with increased volumetric efficiencies from the lower head pressure feeding the carburetor bowl with a lower mass flow to ambient pressure ratio.

Also the scrape marks on my alternator houseing that tore away the Suzuki emblem. When I cruise by I just feel the babes checking me out.
