Sprayed the front fender today, came out fantastic, won't even be necessary to sand/polish. The sides of the fender I scuffed the hell out of and tried my hand at skinning them with chopped carbon but it wasn't great. I thought I could use my mitivac brake bleeder pump to do the vacuum...

Maybe svarts are different than vits. This thing looks like a single 3" piece of plastic with two nubs that I have to imagine have barbs on the underside of. I'll just try pulling.

The frame rail plug that holds the two O2 sensor wires - is that just a push in thing? Like wedge a trim tool under it to pop it off?

Yes, I built them in Fusion by hand. Once I was done I realized my '1' isn't the same as the stock logo but I like mine better. Decal was a sheet of vinyl that I cut using my xTool F1.

Quad lock with the vibration damper. I've logged a couple thousand miles on my pixel 9 mounted to my bike handlebars that way.

All the forged carbon parts (radiator spoiler, front fender, heel guards) are backordered until the end of September. BOOO! Looks like I'm going to start making molds and trying my hand with raw carbon flakes.

These are the Oro rotors that you listed further up in the thread?

2 color coats, just enough to be fully covered. Then 3 of the spraymax 2k. First coat is a 'bonding' coat, your goal isn't high gloss, second coat is medium, should have nice gloss, third coat is wet, just shy of runs. Gives great depth, cures hard and plenty of clear that you can wetsand fully.

Took forever to get the laser settings correct to cut vinyl stickers, but eventually nailed it down. I might order a matte bronze vinyl sheet and try that, but for now this is good, breaks up all that red.

I have an entry in Tom's tail tidy thread, I'm using motogadget tail signals which are considerable smaller than stock. Totally out of the exhaust stream. I probably should bring that pic here for completeness.

Sorry, 'my' as in the red candy pearl I sprayed my bike in. But that green looks great

I wouldn't have predicted it but I love the bronze wheels. That with a British racing green tank and front fender would look amazing. Since your photoshop skills are much better than mine can you try my tank color on your bronze wheels?

Older charging systems have problems at idle but modern bikes do not. It sounds like you RR swap fixed your issue.

Yeah, I love the one they settled on. Stitched up a new cover for the pillion seat to get rid of the yellow stripe. The vinyl I had isn't truly black, more like a very dark grey, but I think it will be fine for now and once I get the numbers cut for the tank bulge (doing a Husky logo and 801)...

I don't see any build threads in here, so I'm starting one. So far not a lot, swapped out the stock mirror for CRG bar ends and used Tom's template to fit a Duke 390 tail tidy using mo.Blaze Ice turn signals. Stock battery removed for a Shorai unit and removed the passenger pegs after...

Holy hell. Ok, I guess that is a lot cheaper than buying the parts and assembling the connectors yourself. I've never seen them outside of the ridiculously priced ones from Rizoma.

Holy hell that must have been a lot of sanding and filing to get that fit that snug inside and out!

Those are the right ones. That is not what is on the smaller bikes (401). Also, those little pigtails are usually not cheap.

Anyone swapped out the stock grips? I'm wondering what is going on under there, the left side can rotate a couple mm and it is annoying, like it has a little plastic nub sticking into the bar or something. Also, the butt of that grip is annoyingly wide - someone in the owner's thread asked...

Some time in the garage this weekend. If you are looking to replace turn signals or whatnot they are finally using a waterproof connector that I can find on these bikes. Second image shows the connectors and pins you need to order. Took my garage opener off the 401 and wired it into the...
