Re: headlight

You are right the o.e headlight is crap. I have tried all ways of making it better using various relay setups and bulb combinations and can conclude that the only way to make it good and safe is to retrofit a hid projector. :thumbup:

Re: CBR954/929 rearsets to fit VTR?

I would say no without some serious mods. The cbr ones bolt to the frame as in this pic. http://indysuperbike.com/img/Attack/adjustable.jpg The Vtr ones are held in place with the swingarm spindle as in this pic. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v282/rststeve76/DSCF0630-1.jpg Ignore the red ring lo...

Re: Fireblade wheels on a storm ..

Vfr800 front on mine looks the same as the blade one but 17" so lots more tyre choice. :thumbup: Hi Steve, Did you use the VFR disc's on your VFR800 front wheel :?: as Mark's (Firestarter) standard Firestorm disc's don't fit. See link:- http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=159...
