Default Upgrades to my bike

Hey, I have been lurking around on here but never posted anything yet LOL
So this is my first!
Love my F4! It's the sunrise yellow and it looks nice....BUT I saw a fellows bike on here in pure white and thought...THAT is what I want to do! So my girl is going to get paint this winter along with a few mods.
- New stator cover
- new grips
- new rubber
- flush mount signals
- undertail kit
- black windscreen- break pads
-Integrated tail/signal light (any suggestions?) I have been looking at the chinese ones and they seem like they would be ok.
- If I can find mirrors with integrated signals (Suggestions?) I did find some but they don't fold in which is something I need.

Big question- Where can I find some good decals. I'm not looking for an entire decal sheet, just a few- I want the big Honda logo on the lower side fairings because it looks badass. And just maybe a couple CBR F4 for the tail. Want to keep it simple. Where is a good place to get some? I'm going straight black decals on a white bike.

Anyway, glad to be abord and I look forward to your replies!

Welcome to the forum finally! Glad to have another F4 owner here. I have used rayd workshop for custom work they are localish and rather $$ but do the best I have ever seen, everything else I use extreme deals, cheap and they have just about everything.

I have a clear alternatives taillight and they are great, very straightforward and the taillight portion is plug and play.

Nice to see another local rider! Ironically i plan on doing the same paint on my track bike which is a 99 F4. You didn't happen to just buy this bike this summer did you? I might be able to help you out on the decal thing, a buddy of mine owns a local graphic company and I'm planning on having him do the decals for me.

Did you buy it off a guy named Cliff? Lives over in the Montrose area off Hwy#2 Catalina Drive? My buddy who does graphics is right in Belleville, He does alot of the local trucking companies graphics. He did some up for my brothers GSXR at the start of the year. I have a 600rr and my brother and I just recently went half on a 99 F4 to set up as a track bike for next summer. We were thinking of doing white paint with a sort of crimson red decals possibly with some silver flake.

Yeah, that is what he said but I think he rode it more then she ever did. I work with him. I know he didn't have it for to long..I think only 1-2 years but he would have taken care of it I know that. Have you put it away for the year yet?
