Best accessory or mod

Post by carmanbikes »

What's the best accessory or single mod you have done to your bike ? I think mine is getting the forks reworked by Roger. :thumbup:

the modification that's made the biggest difference is the rogered forks, you just don't realise how bad standard forks are. now my bike feels like the front and rear are connected, it also soaks up the bumps rather than crashing thru them........ :thumbup:
mr ditchfield I salute you......... :clap:
another mention has to go to ASV levers, I wouldn't have thought it would make a big difference, but my heck it does, an amazing amount of adjustment, great feel as well, not to mention they look fantastic and fold in an accident. plus my clutch lever action feels lighter and the clutch biting point is now closer to the bar, not sure why it's done that, but i'm glad it has..... :thumbup:

another mention has to go to ASV levers, I wouldn't have thought it would make a big difference, but my heck it does, they lock the front brakes on giving an all over body workout as you try to push the vehicle to the nearest garage to get fleeced by the owner, blinding!!. But the clutch lever appears to work and the action feels lighter and the clutch biting point is now closer to the bar, not sure why it's done that, but i'm glad it has..... :thumbup:
Just changed it up a bit for you mucker :lol:

kev you git..... :wink:
that issue of the dodgy brakes could very well be down to the idiot that fitted the lever, although this can't be proved, it also can't be ruled out... :oops:
