i dont think its over kill . better brakes and harder suspension?  its a upgrade dude

the fact ur bike looks sexy anyways , gold USD , with twin rotors ,and if ur getting a GSXR rear wheel ,it will match

I have a Katana Front ,harder Suspention , much better brakes , and the rear wheel , is a Bandit 600 as soon as the spacer is sorted ,until then , using the Katana pre 98 rear wheel , which is like a gs wheel

EBAY - i found everything i have on my bike now from ebay, haven't once left my apartment to go to a shop...LOL...anyways the signals are off a GSXR -- as will other parts in the future.

Adapter...i will give you a hint...turn your inside washer outside of the bike...and find (buy) new washers for the inside...fills out that wierd rec-circular shape and leaves you with a nice flush circle... :dunno_white:


- Clear flushmounts...? is that so people have a better view of my turning? I have always thought about that... wait...front or rear?
---->   i warn peeople who buy this tail light, the wiring is SHIAT...very cheap and the connectors are worse, i went out and bought a couple new ones..(water proof) and some tie-wraps to postion the resitors under the seat handle...

I've got a set of GIXXER mirrors w/ the turn signals in em... From an 06, not a mark.  I'll sell em to someone if they want them.

Nice ride- did you rejet your carbs ?  Also too where did you get the exhaust?

I want to do the exhaust on mine but can't decide which one to get- Yoshi, Jardine or Staintune.

I dunno, i would rather put the money towards something like a fatter rear tire or better handeling...AHAHAHA or even the race course up in shannonville...if there are any torontonians in the crowd..you'll know what i mean.

So its either a Kat wheel swop ,. for the 160 Max rear tire

or a front end swop , or just some Progressive or Racetech front springs  :thumb:

Oh and put a New rear shock in , the stock ones Junk

Thanks a MILLION to Ajaxgs for hooking me up with progressive springs AND adjusting my rear shock (i guess my woman hands were to fraile to adjust it) Thanks again!

Where did you get the Progressive Springs?

Curious to know how much they were.

Is the ride that much better with them?

AJAXGS <-- i bought the springs from this person and he got them from a store down south?!?!? I haven't put them on yet since i just got them today. But i noticed a great difference in our bike (me and ajaxgs) when we both had them side by side to compare. It was suggested that i cut the spacer at 1 1/4 inch and add washers to increase the suspension (fine tuning) Anyways thanks again ajaxgs for all your help in making my suspension troubles easy.
