    Have been thinking about putting in a dual battery setup (using a deep cycle battery) on my FZR250 and fitting a 8 inch thermo to the front of the radiator

    What do you guys think or is it a silly idea

    and what other ideas have yous thought of..?

    Hey mate,

    I just wanna know why do you need to do that????

    Umm other mods could be, chrome frame, custom paint, FZR400 engine transplant, lowered suspension, full custom LED light set up. haha just to name a few mate.

    I was going to do the battery thing as the one that i have in the bike is fairly small and now have a blue dash using blue covers over the lights in the dash and two uv neons in the front ferrings and to power the thermo fan as i think the little one that come on the bike is a toy..

    ahhh

    Ahhhh I see, yeah the larger batt might be a good idea seen as you have alot power being sucked out of it. The alternator is small and pusy to. BUt larger batt should do the trick. Tell us how you get on mate!.

    I ended up getting a bigger battery not the dual battery setup and put the fan on the back and removed the old fan..

    How do the condoms on the dash lights look? I work at autobarn so im able to get all that **** easy. Does it limit the amount of light coming through much? Coz the condoms cant be used for any lights over 5w otherwise they melt.

    Hard Plastic? thats interesting...The ones we sell are like rubber. Wouldn't mind getting a sound activated neon too..Reckon that would be alright taking off from the lights <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->. Though im not a neon sorta person...Anyone used a sound activated one on a motorbike before?
