Hey everyone! Bought my CBR a little over a month ago and it ROCKS! I've done some cosmetic modifications to it, had the muffler cover, mirrors, handlebar weights, and a few other pieces sprayed with Rhino Liner and it looks pretty sweet. Also installed some neons that I bought from Joe Florida. Looks great! Feel free to check out the pics I posted of it. Has anyone else done any mods to the bike? Another question: Has anyone come across a lowering link for it yet? I've been doing the lean thing, but can't wait to have it lowered. Yep - I'm a shorty.

Shiny side up!

I'd love to remove the sticker. You didn't have any problems with goo staying on there then? Sticker came off clean? That sounds sweet about the windscreen. I'd like to do something with mine too, but haven't decided.

Weather is great for riding down here. Well, if you don't mind sweating and being miserable in your gear. ;P At least the beaches are beautiful.

LOL! That's fantastic about the weather. I'm sure some days you get pretty fed up. I know I would. Sounds pretty sweet about the stickers. I love Goo Gone. That stuff works on dang near everything. I'm giong to have to agree that a little paint fade is waaaay better than those stickers. (Stock is so 80's. HA HA HA!)

Wow. That kind of riding has GOT to be hard. We've got plenty of room down here for ya! The more the merrier so come on down! =D The beach is calling your name. LOL! I hear ya on the ocean deal though. I couldn't give that up if I needed to. There are too many fish to be caught.

Thanks, May! And thanks Trapper for digging the bike, too. We are as dry as a whistle down here. Expecting some showers over the weekend coming up, but my vote is wait five minutes and they'll be gone. =)

@Debra - I can tell you that I had one heck of a time figuring out how to get those little jokers off! LOL! Otherwise, I have no more info than what DaSik advised. =)

@ DaSik - I actually took the parts off of the bike that I wanted ot have done and took them to a facility that specialized in putting Rhino Liner in truck beds. The look on the guys face when I brought him the parts was priceless! He says, "I've never done a bike before!" HA HA HA HA! Add it to your portfolio, buddy! I will say that I have not had a problem with the rubber starting to burn away. I don't forsee it happening, since the cover on mine doesn't seem to get scorching hot because of the heat shield you mentioned. It does one heck of a good job. MAN! I love the way the texture looks on the bike, too. Looks like I just drove through a HUGE mud trap. =D Love it! Now when I see the CBR's with the stock chrome cover, I think.... "Wow. Did mine actually look like that before??"

Now back to the topic, I will say that I didn't take off the brake pedal, I used the Rustoleum on it myself. The texture is a bit smoother and isn't as shiny. It's more Matte Black, but served the purpose well and doesn't look strange at all. I was expecting the rhino liner to cost me an arm & a leg since I saw that the prices for truck bed liners started at $465.00. Since the bike pieces weren't that big of a deal for him to do, I only got charged $40.00 for all the pieces. =) It was definitely well worth it. I do agree with you that the Rustoleum is more rubber based than the Duplicolor.

Thanks so much for the compliments on the bike and for taking the time to look at the pics! Still a few more things I'm going to be shooting for - Tail Tidy, new windscreen, etc., but it sure is coming along nicely. =D

@Mellow - I went to joeflorida.com and got the 10 piece LED kit. It ran me about $50.00 and was well worth it. =) I don't ride with the neons on since they are blue and definitely illegal, but I still love them!

@p4i1 - Congrats!!! I know how excited you are!!! =D
