Okay so I spent the extra money on the Rizoma tail tidy.  Just got it today and to say it is a nice piece of kit would be an understatement.  It is molded plastic with gorgeous hardware and a US plate adapter. Nice LED license plate lamp.  It looks factory.  No messy metal bits or things to paint ( :

I also added some Motowheels folding levers (not real flashy but made in Italy and well made at that), some Oberon bar end signals, a Motodynamics integrated taillight and a Zard CF dual can exhaust.  Gonna have to wait a month or so for that toy ): 

I will post up some pics in a month or so when the basic mods are finished.  Also found out that my front springs suck so I am ordering some new ones.  Unless of course anyone has a deal on a sweet Ohlins front end for an 1100Evo........    [thumbsup]

It does not help that I live just a few miles from the Crack house (Oops sorry, I meant Motowheels).     [wine]

Asking addiction advice from junkies?  [laugh]
I'll show you places to feed your addiction - I'm not going to help you fight it...

Nice mods - looking forward to the pictures [thumbsup]

Motowheels is indeed a dangerous place for the weak minded. I went in there once "just to check it out" and walked out with a bunch of stuff, including a new exhaust....
Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty, and the pigs like it...

This is why i don't store my CC info on any moto parts sites. Good luck with the mods! Pics or it didn't happen!  [drink]

Go get yourself a room at your local clinic.  Can tell you from experience it's hard and most can't stay away for long.  Pics or you're not a real addict.

Well I got the brake levers on yesterday, really helped out the feel at the bars.  I am working on the Oberon bar end signals today.  Awaiting the Motodynamics tail light before I rip into the tail to install the Rizoma tidy.  It is their second attempt to ship it to the right address.... 

I will toss out pics when the tail tidy is done, till then I am keeping it as simple we all know what a stock Evo looks like lol  The lack of instant gratification on most parts is tough.  The dealer can't even tell me when my Ducati Arai helmet and leather pants are going to arrive. :(  It will take six weeks to get the Zards from Motowheels and the ECU flashed.

I have at least 3,000 in parts that will take another six weeks to get!  All pre-paid of course.  It is hard buying drugs and not getting to use them ;D  Off to instal the signals!
