    Customised the arse by removing the extra flap, side mounted the number plate and taillight, moved the indicators to the guard.

    image.jpg New headlight fitted, it now has an led day light and changed to a h4. Much better for night riding. The indicators are all led now with a simple to install led blinker regulator so they don't blink to fast.

    That bike looks great ..... I like the colour scheme and the mods are a good improvement.

    I like the idea of the ring of leds on the headlight for daytime ..... I replaced the tiny 'park' lights on the Fizzer with super white leds ..... and also the tail/brake globes ..... major difference :thumb_ups:

    I don't mind the colour only downfall is all of them come in that colour so to make mine apart from the rest I will be wrapping it in a lime metallic green with some gunmetal grey pinstripe followed by a matte clear laminate. image.jpg

    Yeah can't go wrong with LEDs. I have replaced all the globes with LEDs. Was going to change the h4 to led aswell but was a terrible light bulb. Only worked on low beam. So instead I will just get a frost blue one.

    They are basically hunter motorcycle sister company. Except they look to be bringing out a v-twin. Will be interesting to see what hunter does.

    Decided to powder coat my bike green instead of the wrap as it started to peel. New 30t sprocket to add next as I needed to get it honed to fit but will let you all know how it improves performance. Also bought a custom made leather saddle and changed to springs rather than the original shock.

    Hey mate,
    Well done on your bobber mods, i do like the headlight idea and agree about the night riding with the stock unit. Could you give me any info on your seat and spring conversion. I will probably stay with the coil over spring as im 100kg and i need something to save the backbone, but im really diggin' that seat... it lookks about as comfy as the original ;)
    Thanks

    Hey mate. The seat is great. It is much more comfy than the original. It is a little bigger and better moulded. If you want one I bought it off eBay from a bloke who custom makes them in Melbourne. His user name is hard4u65 on eBay.
