Title: My k6 pics
Post by: Gaz1978 on Monday, 20 February 2017, 03:10 AM
So bought the bike pretty much standard back in spring last year, with only 6.5k on the clock.

Bits I've done I can think of over that time:

Vinyl wheel kit
Yoshi adjuster blocks
Remus revolution exhaust
Blue shorty levers
Bar end mirrors
Radiator guards
Givi roadster screen
Recovered seat
Blue anodised sprocket bolts
Reservoir caps
Side panel decals and various stickers
Heated grips
Red bull can reservoir covers
Blue led arrow indicators
Waves front discs
Ebc HH pads
Renthal blue anodised bars (758's I think).

Couple of pics before and after:

Thanks froudy.....though I know what your saying about the rad scoops. I'm not 100% sure myself. It's a bit of a trial/test at the min. I think I prefer the Ermax style ones but they aren't cheap to buy and these ones were cheap hence the test!

Also be aware that the Ermax ones don't fit (as standard) over the top of any rad guard you may have fitted - although if you do go for them Gaz I can tell you how you can make them fit, as I made the ones I had (since sold to Red) fit by making up spacer bolts inside to they stood off a little further

Bike is looking good but I'm not sure about the radiator covers, they stand out too much.  My opinion only.

The mirrors are brilliant in my opinion. I think they were only £15ish from eBay too. No issues with looking at elbows etc.
