Post by: quaid79 on May 15, 2012, 05:25:17 AM
Hi,
Thought I would post some pics of my bike.
Been reading a lot of stuff on here, just a thanks to everyone who wrote a tutorial and keeps these forums updated with great info!

Here are my mods so far:
Carbon Yoshi slipon
Carbon bar weights
Carbon brake and clutch shifter
Carbon mirrors with integrated signal (are we noticing a trend here?)
Stage 1 dyno
Smoke integrated brake/signal in back
Flush mounted front and rear signals
New pegs

Rear light was pretty simple, a pair screws on the back end, and had to cut the stock connector to do wiring. I used the old gasket from the stock light, it fits well, but not perfectly.

I also have an 07f.  Where did you find the mirrors with the integrated signals? I was considering the Gsxr mirrors mod, but I see that yours use the stock mounting points.

Was an eBay find, the mirrors mounted with the stock hex bolts. I drilled a small hole through the fairing in order to hide the wire. This was the listing description:

CARBON Suzuki Mirrors Katana 750 GSX 1300R Integrated

Except that these are chrome  :thumb:...and be careful with these. I don't know if you noticed, but they are labeled "Off Road Use Only" as they are not DOT approved.
