Hello from Ian in Broken Hill, NSW

My bike: 07 but sold in 09 to me SILVER ABS BANDIT 1250SA.
My mods: yoshi trs, cox racing radiator guard, emission (PAIR) removal kit, zero gravity double bubble screen, k&n air filter, fender eliminator, rego tube & a PC3

Welcome Ian. Nice bike.

Nice peice of kit. pipe looks tops with that colour.
What fender eliminator do you have? ive been looking for one that uses the original lights but havnt found any yet. Yours seems to have the stock indicators?

Thanks. I got the eliminator on Ebay usa. Its a Conpetition Werkes brand. I think it was around $180au delived. it looks great but a little heavy as it is all stainless steel.

Welcome mate! did u put the screen on? and did it make that much difference?

Cheers. Can you please take a close up photo of the eliminator for me?
You very happy with it though?

thanks mate. i see your from country vic. any where near Mildua?

I'm here

Welcome!

hi there and welcome

so basically the fender eliminator is a flat shaped plate that goes on the bottom of the rear there after you cut off the existing plastic hanging down bits with some appropriate brackets etc? i might have a go at a self made one i think

don't damage your old one cops down this side of Oz are starting to check guards especially the chopped off ones, you may need to put it back on in a hurry!

Nice work on the 'tail tidy', looks fantastic.............welcome to the forum .

Suz has sexy blue eyes and she lets me ride her all day long

how did you organise the blue numbers in the parking lights - I am after some of those - to match the paint!

Go to any autoparts shop and ask for T5 globes/bulbs in blue.

I didn't like the yellowy looking globes, they looked chep. so replaced them with blue LED's. mate it looks 10x better,
but it made the head light globes look shit. so new whiter globes went in. ITS A NICE LOOK.
The wedge LEDs for parkers come in red, green, blue, orange and bright white.

LEDs $10

Pack of two 55w H7 NARVA Blue power (not blue tho, whiter) they say 80% more light (bullshit) prob 20% more vision at night $65

re this - are we both talking about blue LED's here? can you get the LED's at a spare arts store [auto one etc etc].

i was thinking about getting the blue-ish narvas - are they just a standard item same as a car?
