CapitanBooster Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Thanks.... i need help for some trouble: Do you know some adjustable (and economic) footrests for rc36ii? Do you know where i can find the plexy for the rc45 fairing? Do you know an idea for fixing the lights to the frame? .... and how to attach the seat to the fairing without using the neoprene seat?

The Phantom Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I can't see your photos The footpeg bolt pattern for the RC36 is the same as on CBR900RR up to 1996, and also Yamaha R1 2007-2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Yippee I can see the photos now! Terrific work so far, you are a man after my own heart. If possible I'd suggest ditching the Sandy exhaust system, it's a terrible design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitanBooster Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Hahaha ... do you belive it? I'am watching your wonderful job Phantom in another thread Your exhaust is ...... wow What do you mean for "ditching"? I asked to spare parts the higher exhaust but they send me the lower type and i'm agree .... i think to bend the pipe for an optimal muffler position Your engine is blasted? It means that will be a naked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Kel Posted August 21, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted August 21, 2014 Do you know where i can find the plexy for the rc45 fairing? Try these guys...they show them. Type in RC45 in the search box. http://www.bikescreen.com/search.asp Looking good so far. Welcome to the RVF wanna-be club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB-Oz Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 What do you mean for "ditching"? "ditching" is Australian for "Throwing" as in "throw it in the ditch". The Sandy headers have really bad internal welds and faults, there a couple of topics on the forum here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitanBooster Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 I see the the internal wrong welds .... but i've removed them with Dremel On the leftside isn't a good looking, i agree, but at this price i have not find anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Delkevic are about the same price and are much, much better quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
