What make are the rear sets?

thatguyx · 12-09-2007, 03:56 PM

The rims are the stock black rims, paint? unless you mean the rim stripes, then they're just pro-grip stick on rim stripes. funny thing is i used two different sets because i re-did the rear (didn't like how it came out with a different set)... and the rear tape is reflective and the front isnt. although the color is pretty close...

as for the rearsets, Rizoma first made them in silver, then you had a choice between silver and black... now it's just black. i dont konw the year these were made because i picked them up from another forum for $350 shipped...

right now i'm contemplating getting black Rizoma racing pegs and their C/F heel guards... ugh another $100... maybe i'll just rattle can some stuff lol

Looks sweet Nate!!

Love the exhaust too...you just spray them or are they black now? I'm liking the modification...where did you get those pegs and are they better than the rubber stock ones?

Nice job!

Wow, I really like that exhaust too. Tell us how you did it.

the exhaust is just the stock cover painted over with PJ1 Hightemp Satin Black. Nothing special, just disassemble the rear of the bike so you can unbolt a few things then just take the cover and hit it with a few light layers of PJ1 Satin Black high temp paint (500*F i believe) and then let it dry for a day or two. it's not like you need 1000*F+ degree paint, because the stock cover (silver) doesn't get that hot.

The exhaust "cover" is PLASTIC....so you could use pretty much any spray paint. It gets mildly warm at best.

Those are []D [] []V[] []D

$350 shipped ain't bad...I thought you were holding out for all black? Make sure you save some play money for the track this summer!
