So I've got my BMW F650, and I'm pleased. But I want more...although I don't want to pay!!
So my first project was pegs, rider foot pegs to be exact. The default set are just to small. So I've made them bigger by cutting, shaping and then braising in place a piece of appropriate steel flat bar. It's all done and it's fine I can stand on the pegs easily now.
Next thing is crash bar. I'm sourcing some cheap 20mm x 1.5 mm tube and a pipe bender... I'll keep you appraised.
After this is are the front fork seals and progressive springs.
Then it's new knobblies.
There is more to come, but more on that later...
