  1. Best $20 I ever spent! I didn't want to swap my stock exhaust either, but wanted more growl....I got it with a $17 craftsman drill bit. Smoked my cheap hitachi drill though! Oh well. I even did it with the caps on, didn't take anything off. I'm pleased with that mod and the map from cozye that i modded for the 06. I sent it to him so he could check it out, if anyone wants to try it out just drop me a line with your email address. Don't want to post it without it actually being dyno'd....it's a smooth vtec transition though! :thumbsup:

    How about a picture (or two) of these drill spots? Thanks!

  2. Ken's Fender Eliminator arrived and after some serious plate manipulation I was able to get it all installed. No joke, what a pain in the @ss the little nutz on the back of the light are to install. But worth every minute spent! Thanks Ken!!

    I would've probably been ok with the industrial bracket the bike was born with (minus the plastic) had I not been able to make it fit. But I'm so glad it did fit. My first mod complete! And while I was at it, I added a pair of HONDA decals to the lower fairing. Next stop - hard factory bags. cha-ching! :beer:

  3. Just because :idea3: hehe. Today I took apart the tail section in an attempt to remove that hideous plastic fender. I have a ' ken's fender eliminator' kit on the way - but since it isn't here yet I thought I'd see if I could re-engineer things myself while I wait. So I took all the plastic junx off and what was left was kind of an industrial looking metal bracket. Like it! It was an unsightly green color though so...

    Off to the hardware store to purchase some paint - I ended up getting a black metallic paint that nearly matches the bike! PERFECT!

    Apply much sweat. Paint. More sweat. Then, all back together with a few spare parts woot! Stood back and looked at it - it looks pretty dang fantastic (for what it is)! I just wish Maryland had smaller license tags for motorcycles. Cuz, it would look teh hawt stuffed up between the exhaust cans.

    And on that note, we'll see what the fender eliminator kit looks like when it arrives. But for now - not bad! Total cost --- $4.99 for the spray paint and an hour's worth of sweat and swearing. That's it! LOL. Here's what it looks like. Whaddya think?
