I feel all inadequate after seeing EddieJ's bikes but here we go:

2001 CBR600 Sport

4800 miles, Blue Flame Race Can, Red Double Bubble, R+G's and some
minging bar ends that are getting ripped off as soon as I can get some new un's.

Nice bike but ditch those crash bungs!! they will rip your fairings apart if you fall off... especially if it's at speed... get some proper ones that fit on the engine mounts..

Dont shoot

I think a stainless can would look better than the carbon look

both yours are too clean, you need some cable ties, bit of gaffa tape and a crash cage and you're good to go Wink

That's where the R&Gs go, there's a really sturdy mounting point behind the fairing which rather negates the need to screw them into the engine.

Seems to work, when I binned it at Silverstone there was hardly any damage to the bike and the bung came back about half it's normal size.

Tis a pretty hefty mounting point on my bike and from memory, it is part of the frame.

ROFL, thx for the reply peeps! Groove, i'm going to have to be a right chav tw*t and get some rim tape stuck on, it looks mint, thx for the artists impression! Very Happy

As for the Crash Bungs, the previous owner dropped it on some deisel
on a roundabout, 'Bungs' kinda saved the day, BUT he said they're mounted so centrally the bike just spun on them whilst rolling down the road....... she just ended up with lite damage tho. (btw, my insurance also gives me a discount for having them on)

I'm thinking of ditching the footpegs and sticking on a seat cowl on her, the guy I got it off gave me one for free, but he couldn't be arsed to fit it, thoughts anyone?

As for the can, I wasn't too keen on a carbon one but I quite like the one that's on it, shame it a track use only one tho, worried about having void insurance.

Personally I don't like the carbon can - they look to tacky. That bike is just to nice to spoil with add-ons. Get an original or plain aftermarket can and then leave it alone Thumbs Up

All the extra's were on when I bought it not my choice, i'm going to ditch the light covers, bar ends and i'd like to ditch the screen for a clear double bubble and i'd like an Akrapovic can (i'm not a fan of Carbon but the bike does look good in the flesh) but since its already got an A/E can and screen I can't justify the ££ at the mo.

Very nice looking bike, Rim tape a definitely, will look good as the fairing is mostly red.

And come someone please tell me what bar ends are, ive got an idea but i dont want to look foolish Confused

That's nice, I was wanting one like that before I bought my first Gixxer. It was a bit more than I wanted to spend at the time though. Rim tape looks the part too. Thumbs Up
