Hey Damo, YOUR HOUSE IS ON A LEAN! :D

lower looks better mate

[Gix11]

Difficult to tell from the two photos mate, but I'm sure lower will look better as it gives the effect you mention every time.

Hey Damo what clamps have you used to attach the front guard on to the fork legs as Im looking at getting a Duke guard and I think it may be a similar thing to what you have

[damo1]

Hueyonoblade ive just just made up some brakets out of alloy angle off the front
axle retaining bolts then up under the guard.
The guard i used was off a 996duc.

Ive dropped it about 50mm from the top triple its not a great photo but you can sort of
see it from the top triple if you look close.

Hey mate - how do you find the lights at night - got a mate who is building up a fighter and is looking at a set of those.

[fimpBIKES]

looks good

get some proper lights though mate
or do i just use the flaming zorst to light up the road ahead at night :D

[WATEVR]

zx12argh i have the same lights and if you do use the bike in the evening on a regular basis then these arent the best as they are only household 12v down lights. there good enough to get you out of trouble though.

[damo1]

Yeah as wateva said there not great,well actually there shit
but will get you regoed and out of trouble wouldnt want to be doing the
old road on my own at midnight with a new moon.

i actually like them a bit higher. I think lower makes your bars stick out a little. I think the fairing higher cleans it up and makes the front more uniform. thats a cool color on there. Lucifer Orange?

[damo1]

Paint room mix she'd be a tough one to match if i troweled it.

[Slingblade]

Light looks much better lower damo.

You making it to the fools run? We might have a few blades this year!!

[Hillsy]

As for those lights, I've got a set on my ZX9 but I changed the inner bulbs to 35W (they're 20W standard). The inners are the same size as your regular household downlights, so they're available from your local hardware:) you just have to make sure you get narrow beam ones (I think mine were 16 degrees pitch). That makes them heaps brighter. I shyed away from the 50W ones - just in case they melted the fairing or overloaded the circuit.

Still, they're pretty crap.....

[damo1]

thanks for the tip hillsy ill give them a go.

[WATEVR]

deerrrr i didnt think to change em over but good advice with the pitch hillsy. they wouldnt fry the wiring as long as they arent a a higher Wattage than your original globes but the plastic may be another issue?
