you know what no 6?
you 're right!
these guys are telling me that you can't even properly jet an r1 also.:confused:
they were telling me stories of how they have done full systems and jetted them. the jetting of the bike didn't turn out right so they went back to slip on and oem jets/needles. :confused:

ddues.. I got mine from www.tricktape.com for 20 bucks...they are awesome.. I bought 90/100 watts and been rinning them since April without ANY problems.

They are white as snow with this cool blue tiny tint to them

Here is the pic of what the look like when they are OFF looking straight at them..

It was probably the best 20 bucks mod I did on my bike.. I get lots of compliments and they are freaking bright as hell! Few people actually thought that I had HID conversion installed lol

Hey Maxxym those lights look cool, I think I will be looking for some real soon, also that screen's not bad either and how's the wind come of it as mine is still straight at my head and chest although slightly more protection than stock, thanks mate:thumbup
 
#20 ·
norco..thanks man..

If I knew anything about windscreens before I bought mine I would get something else. I mean it looks nice and it fits ok but I could have better wind protection. Plus, twobrothers.com (thats where I got it from) charged me 40 bucks for shipping :butt piece of shits....

but oh well.. I am sucka like that...

here is one more pic.. most recent

I have them bulbs on my bike.Alot of people like em and they do help out alot!!:fact I wll give you a fair warning though..... those PIAA i guess werent meant to be driven to with the highbeams for any long amount of time...... I learned the hard way....I stayed with highbeams on once for like a 5 hour ride and one od the bulb burnt out in the high beam:( so now i just rock my low beams......I had them for about 5 months already.good choice in lighting.:yesnod
