Here's my cateyes. Current mods: TGN carb, pipe & filter. ADA gas cap. Tapeworks.com decals. Some colored valve stems & stuff from the ricer isle of autozone. 2 6" & 1 12" cathode lighting.
Future mods: leather seat, wt-603, ADA rocket key& juice box in the mail, & a few other ideas.
The last pic is kinda funny. We took the pb up to the Harley grand opening in Alexandria, LA. You would not beleive the crowd it attracted! I did get one hot a$$ chic to sit on it and flash het t!ts, but sorry cant post it here. If you look in the background I parked next to a guy on a homemade truck with a 350 engine in it.
If you have questions or comments please pm me or post a thread please dont jack up the pics thread.
Nice bike xwingtw. I'm also trying to make mine look like the R1, only problem is where to get the Yamaha R1 decals. I noticed that your seat fairing is different than other cateyes. May a ask how you did that?
try tapeworks.com for the decals. They make them for full size and can shrink them to fit pb's. Order from them you want 65% of full. It looks like an x1/x2 seat that he probably fiberglass molded in.
Thanks for the suggestion about the decals Mblough. I thought it was that but I noticed that the rear deck (after the seat section) is flat, unlike the X1/X2 that has a point on top.

I cut the graphics myself from yellow vinyl ...it's cheap $10-20 a roll on ebay and if you damage your decal by dropping your bike..(like me ) you have the vinyl to repair it...The turning folk logo and the yamaha lettering are just from a yamaha dealer. You noticed the seat fairing .. It is from a X2..with the top triangle piece cutted off and filled then mounted to the X3 seat area. I have pic if you want to see what took place. Some said it looks weird but I think it looks ok..but it sure feels alot better then the X3 seat. Also I trimped the front wheel fender a little smaller to give it a slimer look. I think the stock fender makes the wheels looks too wide
I took pics of my bike right now so they suck but its a cateyes in black w/ hyperwhite turn signals ,tuned pipe, black rims, and black chainguard i will post more when its daytime.
*The first pic is in the daytime it is when i first installed my pipe so theres nothing really special about it.

Thanks for the reply xwingtw. Does the X2 mounting holes line up with the frame mounts for the Cateye or you just "slightly" modified them. I didn't even notice the front fender trim that you did, nice . Please post some pics on how you "filled" in that part and with what. I might copy that look to be slightly unique in my area if you don't mind.
max speed is 32.9 for now....
