New Rizoma Mirrors installed - Very Nice!

Nice, how is the vibration on those puppies? Where did you pick them up?

 

[Five1]

I bought them at Pjsparts.com. As far as vibration, I think they are better than the stock mirror but worse than bar-end mirrors.

Is them 'n's the right 'n's?
(are these the ones?)

Hey five1, what kind of blinkers are those in the front? and where did you get them? Thanks

 

[Five1]

The blinkers also came from americansportbike. I don't remember the model name.

I think this page might be the ones Five has on his bike.....very nice. It shows a size comparison with the stock turn signals in the pic. Kellerman Turn Signals

 

[crissy]

might sound like a daft question but are these mirrors longer or shorter than stock on an xb12s?

 

[Five1]

Actually, I think these are the turnsignals I bought.

I'm not sure about a length comparison between the rizoma and the stock mirrors. I dumped the stock ones as soon as I got the bike home. I rode with bar-end mirrors for a little while.

Yeah they do look sharp, i just also changed mine out too with the aprilia mirrors. Their kinda the same when it comes to vibes, less than stock but not as good as bar end mirrors but they also look sharp but yours are topdog!

Five1,
What exhaust do you have on there? Is that D&D? If so tell me your thoughts on it. Thanks.

 

[Five1]

Its a D&D. I like it alot. Everyone said how loud they were, and I kept saying to myself, "how loud could it really be??" Well, once I had it installed, I finally realized what they meant. I have to wear earplugs now. It's not any louder than my friends harley, but since they come out right underneath the bike, It seems extra loud for the rider. (its wierd, but its actually louder when wearing my helmet) With earplugs I'm fine, but without, I feel like I just left a rock concert.

I noticed a slight increase in midrange power.

Overall, I really do like the pipe (despite having to wear earplugs) Everyone comments on how good it sounds.

Where did you get your subframe raisers from???
How do you like them?
I'm going to go that way but not sure to get the trojan ones out of the UK or the PM ones from Switzerland....the PM one are way more expensive but look like a solid piece rather than the thin metal ones.
How is the ride?
Also your tail light housing, is that a bought piece or did you cut that down yourself???

 

[Thaloc]

What levers are those? lol this thread is like 20 Questions fore Five1

 

[meetch]

good job.. those mirrors are perfect. they suit the front end perfectly!

 

[Five1]

The subframe spacers are from Trojan Horse. They do the job and were much cheaper than the PM ones. The spacers did raise the seat height a little bit. I swapped seats from the standard S seat to the low SCG seat. The lower seat brought my center of gravity back down and helped with handling. I have had them on for a while now and don't notice any problems.

The tail eliminator and integrated tail light was purchased from American Sportbike.

The levers are stock (just cut down and painted black) Sometime I would like to get a set of Pazzo shorties.

 

[HOVERJOCKI]

just got a set of those...well worth the money

 

[Stevenc150]

Yeah, I just took advantage of the Ebay 10% off coupon they offered and bought me a set of Gold/Black Pazzos. Really looking forward to them. Maybe, I'll actually introduce myself properly with pics and everything once I get them mounted. Those look great Hover. I'm druelling for mine right now.
