howlinhoss Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I am trying to decide if I want to paint those black Or have a local shop powder coat them to match the rims. The easiest option would be to paint them to match the rear swing arm, but when do I take the easiest option Ohhh paint them to match the wheels.

I will have to figure out what wire delivers the high beam electric. It's an awesome mod so you can open your garage door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you get those? Illegitimi non carborundum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusiphur Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 That is just the radiator guard The side guards are from yamaha and a completely separate product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afjbyers Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I will put something together and do that. The wife and I rode to dinner on the FZ-07 tonight. It barely felt like I had a passenger. This bike is so awesome. I couldn't agree more! It is such a huge difference than my Honda Shadow where the bike acted MUCH differently with her on it. I haven't done any real long rides with her on the back yet, but looking to in the near future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member pgeldz Posted August 25, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted August 25, 2014 Tonight I rotated my handlebars backwards. I always felt like they were not installed at the correct angle. After rotating them backwards, the turn signal indicator, horn button and the section with the hazards and on off switch are now rotated properly. After viewing that, I am positive they were rotated too far forward. I did a quick side to side check and I have the same distance between the bar ends and tank as I do on my other bike. It felt SOOOOOOOO much better on the test ride Lenny Here is a picture that shows what I meant by using bolts instead of pushpins for the fender eliminator, Thank you so much for the link for the EP Rad guard! I was looking at this pic with your solution for the push pics and had a question... Doesn't that black plastic piece go inside of the painted pieces? I haven't taken mine all apart yet, so I was curious... - Paulie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusiphur Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Hmmmmm maybe Can you take a picture of that section of your bike for me? I want to run the wires cleaner so I was going to remove and drill a hole through the tail tidy at some point It sure would make putting the bike back together easier if you are right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lusiphur Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Thanks That gives me an idea on how to emiminate the bolts now too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusiphur Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 So tonight I decided to give this another try. After removing everything again, I modified the tail tidy. I drilled a hole in it to run the wires through and once I was done, the wiring is much cleaner and I was able to use some washers to properly anchor the pushpins again and yes I had this section re-installed improperly before. the above is how is should be.

Lusiphur Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 I'm on the other side of the state from you. To mount my rear tank bank I took the 4 included attachment straps [Which had 1 Plastic hook] and I converted them to 2 Straps that have the hooks on both ends like so. and this is how I attached it to the rear seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member rmdet Posted October 6, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted October 6, 2014 Is it possible to luggage lock the zipper on the bag? I could not tell from the photos I had seen. I'm in the city, so crimes of opportunity are frequent - even though a luggage lock can be easily defeated, 99% of the time something simple is enough of a deterrent. I assume I can figure out a way to run strap connections under the seat so it cant be popped off from above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusiphur Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 It would have to be a small lock due to the hole size in the zipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
