Not a lot of guys are into lights but I am and always will be so whatever you have to say is freedom of speech but I truly dont care either way they will be rocked either way. The wheels are typical performance machine torques we have seen on a hundred different bikes. I like the look of them and will be blended with the final project nicely. I dont have the budget like some so I have to mod my stuff in parts. For this one I went with ebc hh pads, single braided line and really havent had an issue braking. I thought when I took the other rotor off and it wouldnt stop rolling backwards out of the garage I was worried but then once it was bled right and the pads were broken in I have had to do a few emergency stops and pulled it off without any unusual pucker factors. That being said I am curious how much more bite a upgraded master might give so i may do that this winter.

That bike looks great. Being honest, not that you care :laugh: I think the white would look better than the yellow / orange.


It doesn't cost much to have the rearsets and passenger pegs powder-coated to match the frame.

Definately. I hope that once its painted the yellow will then better. I have a cool idea that im hoping turns out. Worse case i can make those a diff color entirely.

Powdercoating is super cheap with our forum dude here i found in searching. The very next mod is stretch and i wamt a swingarm versus extensions but not sure if want a chrome one or staying black. Thinking of the cleaning required......not sure lol.
 
Looking good. Info on lights? Alsp where do you have the lights mounted for the glow on the wheels?
 
Looks good! Strange seeing a bike that is going in this direction that isn't stretched? Or did I just miss that? I think the yellow light looks good IMHO. Not going to say anything about cutting your braking power in half :whistle:
 
Have the PM Torque wheels also. Galfer rotors with R.I.S. centers front, Coerce fender and Galfer rotor rear. No stretch here! Your bike looks good!

How come each one of your's rims are facing different ways? Runner44's is clockwise, yours runs counter? Just wonderin'..

I like em! :beerchug:

yes I am also curious where you mounted the lights to make the wheels get a nice glow going. Bikes looks nice, not so sure about the orange but its your bike and do as you like. Also are you running HID's ? if not thats a cheap and easy mod and will go real well with your glow kit. Which glow kit did you purchase? Im looking to get one with a similar effect where it woudl do diff. flash in diff. parts of the bike instead of one pattern throughout the whole bike. thx.

Without sounding too stupid, never noticed the wheel direction till you mentioned it. Going to pull the front wheel and flip/flop it today. Had some new tires installed last year and guess they did not notice the direction either. Thanks for the observation!
 
i like it (i love lights too...the more, the better!) :beerchug:
 
The light strips i got from superbrightleds.com i have always been happy with their product. The front fender is a side emitting led strip from autozone. They are in the side of the front fender pointing down into the wheel. The wires are routed around and then hot glue into place so no issue of getting snagged into anything. As for stretch i do want to but want to do whole swingarm not extensions even then it wont be much, likely a 6" stretch or so. Then its paint time.
 
looks good, i like those wheels, i like the color of your leds too:thumbsup:

I have an 04LE all red busa, I love the red, and I think busa's look best all one color. Beautiful bike :thumbsup: I would add a Kanji or some other tasteful graphics tho, it looks a little plain without anything.
