Default new 600 RR owner 2003

Hello all, this is my first post as an owner of a CBR (thanks for the help when I was debating on buy this baby...)

I now have some questions on where to buy some stuff. (The bike is 03 stock with 2,900 miles on it). What I am hoping you can tell me is what to buy and what to stay away from for these parts?

Sliders (frame and swingarm)
Swingarm stand
Integrated break/blinkers
Front blinkers (flush)
And how to get rid of the ugly license plate thing.


thanks in advance...
kiko

Frame and Swing Arm Sliders- Vortex, there are many and most are good.

Swing Arm Stand- They are all good but some are cheaper then others. I prefer Cycle Cat's but it is a little more expensive then most because it works on a hinge system what makes it easy and safe to lift the bike by yourself.

Integrated Brake Light- Clear Alternatives

License Plate Thing or other wise known as a Fender Eliminator- Competition Werks

Front Blinkers- Gregg Flush Mounts

Thanks all for the input.

Sliders - Vortex
Integrated Tail light - CA
Stands - off eBay (Tribal, the Cycle Cat looked awesome but decided to save the cash)

All these plus a new helmet are on the way

Any suggestions on other blinkers, Greg’s look sweet but all could find was a set for $120. I saw a discussion for hotbodies blinkers but my initial search came up with only blinkers for 05-06 600rr

and as to the fender eliminator I will try and build something myself.

now here is onother newbie question.

as i said i got the bike used. the last oil change was done 200 miles ago however that was beggining of june 05 by a deler... any suggesions???

sliders: OES www.oesaccessories.com can't beat the price and they work pretty well, couple members on 600rr.net have race crash "tested" em...

F/E: Do it yourself
Swing arm stand: Handy stands if you wanna save money, pit bull if you're a baller... ( got the pit front and handy rear...)
front blinks: Mad docs, hotbodies, watsen designs, couple others that have skipped my mind... GREGGS...
Integrated tail light: CA integ.

here's my FE... hose clamp and an aluminum sheet fabbed into a bracket... 6 bucks
