    Not a problem. Post up when you do the mod. I'm too busy with other things at the moment to do the mod, but I imagine I will shortly, provided my motorcycle engine swap goes smoothly.

    Suzuki TL 1000S, putting a TL 1000R motor in it. It's a fairly common swap, just a few external differences, mostly cooling system changes/ alterations. The motor's in now, just needing all the stuff put on it.

    Suzuki TL1000S motor swap to TLR motor

    I have the same gun and was looking at that kit and mod as well. Let me know how it goes, is it a noticeable difference and complexity

    My shirt just came!! I ordered it when I posted about it. I think the first one was lost. I assumed it was coming from china so I waited like 5 weeks before I said anything.

    Mine may have taken a couple of months. If it is like mine the logo on it will look better after it has been washed and dried.

    I knew it would be cheap. But figured around the house will work. Esp when working as black does not show grime and gtease but I usually don't wear black as its hot as chit down here in the deep south.

    I did notice on all the pop ups and links as you try to check out they had it in a blue as well. I would of rather had that one but couldn't get them to swap it and I didn't want to buy 2.

    Put it in and let us know. I watched the video a few days ago from Apex on installing it. Didn't look bad

    No, apparently it's pretty easy, but there's at least one item that is a tad tricky.
