ordered some new little bits for the bike to make it look a bit more sexy lol, well since i sprayed it and dont have panel rash on the side any more i bought some new stickers for it, so should look ok soon,

also iv bought some carbon fiber levers off ebay, dont know if they will look good or cheap and tacky, ill make my mind up when i put them on lol, might look ok since iv got a carbon zorst...

as well as the levers iv bid on a black DB screen, but i gotta wait another 3 days for the auction to end to see if i win that.

the only other thing that i wanna get is a carbon fiber rear hugger, but i just cant bring myself to part with Â£100 to get one lol, anyway ill get some pics up next week sometime when iv fitted all the stuff....

think the carbon levers will look nice, i bought some anodised ones once and they looked well tacky, needless to say i sold them again, always fancied carbon ones so put some pics up when you have them fitted!

Are they actually carbon fibre levers? If they are the ones ive seen they are are carbon 'look' not real carbon.

Carbon effect stuff is the tackiest thing you could put on a bike i think. But each to thier own

I found that carbon look is all gravy but wears quickly. so you get that white haze on it.

Bit of meths and you can wipe the rest of the effect off if it goes hazy, then you have shiny black levers. Have only seen real carbon levers once and they were like Â£200!!!!!!! They are the first thing that break in a crash!

talking of styling, been looking at a see through clutch cover in the styling section. Think they are very quircky. Not found any on the pscyle works website though, are they still making them?

yes mate, they were supposed to be making me one for the competition but not heard from them i will chase them up and ask the question.

i dont think they are in production for the ZXR400, phcyle works were making a one off, dont know if you could buy one

Post by **masterofinsanity** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 11:52 am

they will make anything one off, they were going to do the clutch cover as a first, but they willl do one, i'll try and get prices for them.

Dont see the point, you wouldnt see it on the zxr anyway. carbon look gear = junk. carbon effect never looks anything like real carbon and even proper carbon parts are just useless expensive shite. I dont want to piss on your bonfire m8 but i think your wasting your money.
