  1. This is a sanity checking thread for all those modifications you're thinking of doing.

    Will those bladed knuckle duster brake and clutch levers look awesome or have you been suckered my the marketing material and empty promises of the latest quickshifter for your never-to-see-the-track bike and need talking out of it?

    Post details of that mod you're thinking about doing.......post it and let the comments flow!

  12. Do you mean smattering or splattering.............bit of a Freudian slip there I think :biggrin:

  18. That's OK too Char.......just mind the trim......could start to veer from swank to wank if you're not careful

  19. They do with black trim but it's £200 - I might buy some curtain fabric and reupholster mine

  20. I tried a Sargent on on the 848 and found it less comfortable than the stock seat.....it pressed on the back of my legs due to their inadequate length. Im sure they're good if you're the right shape....just not right for me
