Guy - i made my own up, i don't use the number plate light, if you want one made its rather simple you can just use some L brackets from hardware store or simlar, for a small price i could get you made up one simlar to mine, i get ya phone.

Mine uses standard signals, only down side you get alot of grit and stuff on your tail place being sprayed up

[That Guy]

Yeah making your own can't be that hard. Had any problems with a WOF without your number plate light? Or do you plan to put the old guard bak on to get your next WOF?

Care to post any pics up of how you did it when you have a mo?

thanks!

Well wof are once a year so only had bike 6 months so have to wait and see, i go get a wof from store i know, and tell them might as well give it to me, cause other wise, i will put orginal back on and come back then take it off again, its just to big and ugly, its pretty easy, the one on mine is not exactally how i want it, but close, i get some pics next few days and post them for ya to look at

[Cajun]

That_Guy i also have a copy of the factory service manual in pdf format for ya if you are gonna be wanting it.

gimme-me-me-me-gimem-gimeeee. Opps I mean yes please. That'd be grand.

Also I ordered some skid knobs from F1- Enginering, will let you know what they're like.

After a year or so mine will end up on the track so slowly but surely I'm going to prep it for that. Other bits I will get will be a fairing set from Just fairings....and those F1 rear sets look good enough to lick. Yum.

Attached a pic of a nicely done yela one like yours - thought you may like to see it (from gixer.com)

I get two smoker a copy, you can try and score a copy from him in auckland
Yep www.gixxer.com is one my other forum i read.

Already have a set of skid knobs from F1 enginering i one who told them they are same as gsxr1000 dc:< Had them on my bike about 3 weeks after i got it. wanted to be safe then sorry

[Cajun]

Just put on a set of michelin powers damn what a difference they feel tons better than the pirellis i did have before, more stable planted and feel better thru coroners.

ALso if anyone hears of a bolt on pipe for a late model gixxer around give me a bell, i be very interested any pipe of a k model 600/750/1000 shall work

[Cajun]

11000 clicks and this bike still amazes me, how well it handles/performes, and the vesabality of it, weekend racing, day communting, slow boring touring it does it great. Slowly been engine is braking in

Over the last 11000km my average fuel drinking rate is 6.5l per 100kms which arn't to bad normal average is about 250kms per tank. It has never put a foot wrong, well unless i was doing something silly to put it that way, It feels alot better planted since i have put the michelin powers on it.

What can i say i love it, and everyone should get one, all the power you really need, enough to spin wheel up, enough for wheel stand, and enough to give it a good handle full coming out of corners, and it not to much that it bucks you off, excellet brakes, stop on a dime.

[That Guy]

Finnally got mine. Whoppee. K5 but the same as the K4 (graphics a little different no tthat you'd notice at least on the blue one).

What a weapon. Love it. Only done 80kms....might've slid past the run in rev limit maybe once or twice.... Wicked screamer. Needs a race track.

[sAsLEX]

got any pics??

[That Guy]

After making a mess of my mudguard I bought a replcement from Glenn @ motoGB - pictures as attached. It still takes number plate light so fully legal. Had to put some extra washers for that light to get it to fit properly; and had to offer some encouragement for the bolts to line up properly; but looks better than the plastic monster that was there.
