    The dogs' GSXR 750 mods

    Well, I really do think I have a bit of an addiction. Take a look here for my last thread dealing with this affliction.

    I have now had my 750 for just under a month and have already made several little changes to make the bike as individual as I can (not as easy with a GSXR as it was with the Hornet)

    The mods so far:

    Indicators:
    Replaced the front indicators with some lenses from Clear alternatives. Blends nicely with the mirror now. I also ordered brake lenses from them, but they sent me the wrong item.

    Screen:
    Replaced with a dark smoke double bubble. Better wind protection and looks nicer.

    Wheel trim:
    Added some blue rim tape and Suzuki racing stickers. Just for looks.

    Stickers:
    Removed almost all of them. Front, side, tail, warning, tank. This has probably changed the look of the bike the most so far. It looks much cleaner I think.

    Levers:
    Replaced with Pazzo racing shorts, black with blue adjusters. Had these on the Hornet and love them.

    Bar ends.
    The left side one was missing when I got home from Tauranga (losing the left side is a common problem with this bike apparently). Bay city motorcycles were great and sent another one. Have now installed Motivation weighted bar ends. No more buzz in the grips.

    Frame sliders:
    Motivation sliders up front and Motivation bobbins at the back.

    Rear passenger pegs:
    Removed these

    Frame hole caps:
    Picked up a set of caps on Ebay that fill the holes in the frame.

    Previous mods done when I bought the bike:

    Tail tidy:
    Removed the ugly tail section.

    Air filter:
    Has a K&N fitted

    Exhaust baffle:
    Has been removed? Not sure what this means or if it is really better/louder.

    Headlight guard:
    Ventura guard fitted.

    Future mods under consideration:

    Exhaust:
    Something louder and lighter please.

    Rear sets:
    Would like black and something that removes the vibrations in the feet.

    Seat:
    Would like a colour design that matches the bike. Also some new foam for comfort. McDonald trimmers here I come.

    Tinted headlight cover:
    Not sure about this one, will see what it looks like.

    R1 throttle
    Swap the stock throttle with one from the R1, to get the 1/4 turn to full throttle.

    The first picture is the bike as I got it. The next three are as it is now.

    Very nice. Once you start modifying it's very hard to stop.

    LOL Terminal!!!!

    I was told to say
    "Brilliant write up and that is one shit hot looking bike".

    The truth is more like
    "Good god, stop spending money on it already!" At least he's making it look less like a GSXR and cooler for me to ride! hehe

    It certainly looks different to the other 750s around. Nice work!

    nice to be a little different. When are you going to get the Kawasaki stickers? and do you have time to ride it?

    Hey kendog, is that mark's old 750? (salesman there at baycity now, traded it on a zx10r).

    should be a strong bike, got run in the proper way.... tyres were fucked before the 1st service!
    It's just one of those days, where you don't wanna wake up,
    everything is fucked, everybody sucks,
    You don't really know why but you wanna justify ripping someone's head off
