VFRshark Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 VFRtiger finally received the carbon fiber accent kit she's been waiting for. We installed it when we were putting on her heli-bars. The kit is 9 pieces, including dash, top triple tree bracket, tank and fuel filler pieces and a cool tail piece. Sorry the pictures aren't better, but my photo editor program wasn't cooperating this morning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer VFRtiger Posted February 5, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted February 5, 2007 Any more details on this kit? Looks cool on the white! I first saw the kit on a white VFR at Cycle World in Daytona Beach and had to have it. It took about three months to get it though. A guy who lives in Daytona makes the kits and according to Cycle World they are going to become an accessory that can be ordered when you get the bike. If you want one, call them and then have plenty of patience since these are currently being produced by one guy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they are available as separate pieces at this time. Call Cycle World in Daytona Beach for more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer VFRtiger Posted February 5, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted February 5, 2007 Bump. SWEET!. More, give us more! The kit, all 9 pieces, ran $175, but that is not too bad since they are truly carbon fiber and held on place with 3M tape. These are not reusable, once they are on the bike, that is it.

Member Contributer Rice Posted February 6, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted February 6, 2007 Guys, My friend owns a shop that makes dash trim kits. If we can get the specks for the carbon decals (placement, size, etc...) I can order from him. We will need a group buy thing ore something because he needs to make at least 20 or so. I will find out for sure if there is interest. I never thought of it until now. Will have to ask him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 767fixer Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 VFRtiger finally received the carbon fiber accent kit she's been waiting for. I'm still in wondering about always calling the wife a "stage name"....vfrshark...hmmmm?. my wife might like being called aprilia ann or something. it would go a lot further to mend our relationship compared to her current names i call her... the old lady, the nagging spouce, argument instigator, loud mouth, or lastly and my favorite....."My Kitchen Bit%$# " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot his name but have talked with him before. I might swing by there this weekend. Three sets were initially ordered. The other two went to people who worked at Cycle World so I am sure one was to the parts guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
