It’s a bit early, but what are some of the mods you guys are planning to do over the long winter?
For me, I plan on installing:
- New brake pads: EBC Extreme Pro
- Tinted Windscreen
- Integrated tail light

Not that I can think of at the moment, ZX10R is just going to be chillin in the garage. But she will be getting some company over the winter or early spring in the form of a Harley I’m buying off the in-laws. (2007 Dyna Low Rider) Great bike for commuting to and from work or a nice long ride! Been on it a few times this year, its going to be nice to have both bikes!

Might tear my TL down to nothing, powdercoat the frame, make it into a street fighter and do straight pipe exhaust that exits under the bike. Not sure yet. Might be too poor.

I need a shift light, shark fin guard; a timer if I have the $$. Need a new rear sprocket and tires on my street bike. However, I won’t be working on them until next spring.

I’m becoming a carbon fiber whore. Winter plans are not much but i am splitting my headings and sending the internals to a company oversees that’s going to make them into carbon fiber for me. I’ve already added a bunch of cf and plan on doing a little bit more. I love carbon fiber on white
