1st mod to your bike

RE: 1st mod to your bike
I am leaning towards the yoshi pipe too. I am just waiting for my wife to come back from vacation so we can work the deal out.
I have added the tank pad and new pro grips but I don't consider them mods... Just cosmetic... Also on my agenda are sliders and a new tail. I think when I add the yoshi slip on I can consider my bike "mod'd".
I am not sure about the steel braided brake lines.

I havn't done them yet, but, I suggest frame sliders first. Cause, if you're just starting to ride, it's not a matter of IF you go down, but, it's WHEN you go down, and, if you've got frame sliders, you could be saving yourself hundreds in replacing scratched, cracked, and broken plastics. A slip-on pipe would be my second mod if I were starting a new bike.

what is everyones oppion on the steel braided brake lines ? are they really worth it ? my friend has it on his 1k RR and he said yes but i want to get other peoples opinon too. it makes sense that they would help but for normal riding through traffic and occasional mountian passes would it be worth it for me to upgrade ?

I did some decal/appearance work first. It was all I could afford after I bought the damn thing! Then I did the Yosh + K&N, fender elim., hugger, brighter head lights, flushmounts, brakes, etc. Do what you can afford, make a priority list with all associated costs - that will help.

If I was to buy a new bike, being a 1000RR, I would ride it home and get ride of the ugly a$$ rear fender before I went back out for a ride. Next would be frame sliders and a CA tail light, hotbodies flushmounts up front, Zero Gravity Double Bubble, then exhaust, air filter, and pcIII. LOL I have it all figured out, now I just need to save some money. My F4i was already modded except for the front turn signals and frame sliders which I put both on very shortly after LOL.
