bye bye blackbird

well guys all the past hype about a v5 replacement for the 1999 FI bird seems to have come to nothing. After looking around I can't find any other new models that meet my criteria except maybe k1300s at some ridiculas price. would love a fireblade but at 6'4" plus not practicable. So have decided to tart up the bird with a few goodies, have on order Yoshimura 4 into 1 full system, LED clear lense combination rear light, clear front indicator lense, have fitted powerbronze double bubble, rear hugger, headlight protector and have removed the tank bra, sheepskin seat cover and rack and bag for a more sporty look as its still quicker straight line as my mates 2008 blade and being preristricted version it's always going to be up there somewhere. I would appreciate any other comments on might do mods.

I see you did the 4 into 1, I'm guessing thats your going to do the PC3 with that also. I dont know what kind of stuff your into but you could go to tape works for a sticker kit to spice up the paint job a little. and you get either upgrade the wheels or paint the ones that you currently have.

Just suggestions.

The PC is a definate and I will repaint the fairing to get rid of the stone chips although it's not too bad. Wheels are on the agenda I am just having a job locating some at the moment any ideas? I will check out the sticker site for something a bit subtle. Thanks for the input.
