Member Contributer VFRbeliever Posted April 25, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 25, 2016 Hi all, Last summer I picked up a pristine 2002 VFR (abs model) with only 908 miles on her! It was late in the season and didn't get to ride too much, but have been busy doing a few modifications. The bike already had a set of Staintune cans, but other than that was pretty much stock. To date I have: Modified rear fender Removed the snorkel Disabled PAIR valve Disabled flapper valve Last week a got around to doing a few more. I needed to buy new tires, so while the wheels were off I sprayed them with Plasti-dip. I did my truck wheels last year and they have held up very nicely. I used anthracite gray and love how they came out. I added some tank grabbers. I also attempted to darken the wind screen. I used VHT nightshades and sprayed the inside of the screen. It is not perfect, but I generally like how it came out. It is semi-transparent like I wanted. The product didn't adhere to the windscreen the way I anticipated. It didn't cover thoroughly, you can see the tiny spray droplet pattern. However, it actually looks pretty cool. I'm going to keep it. I have a new Sargent seat being delivered today. With that, I think I'm going to stop the mods for a while and ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
