Re: My new baby

I like those flush mounts. What about the rear signals and the plate? No place to mount anything back there.

plate mount should be easy to fab... get an intgrated taillight to solve your blinker issue in the rear...

There is a little screw with washer that sticks out to catch the inside molding of the fairing. Pretty slick.

Re: My new baby

so it doesnt sound like i'm gettin the gixxer huh? oh well, anyway thought I'd mention the R1 ran up front (closer to the front) in the first two world superbike races than I have personally ever seen (started watching in 03) this may be the best R1 ever at least it's actually competing...then again it could be the rider too, Troy Corser aint no joke!

Re: My new baby

Is the Yamaha Team factory backed in superbike now? I am fairly sure it is now which is the reason it is up front now. Before they were private teams running against factory backed teams. Duh...
