I'm looking at dropping a tooth or two in the front and bumping up a few in the back. Anyone who has done this already, where did you buy your parts and what exactly did you do.
I'd like to keep a pretty much stock chain length, but want more whip for 2nd gear for wheelies and drop down 6th gear's top speed a hair since I'm almost never up over 120 on the freeway. Seems like 6th is practically useless except as a highway cruising gear to save gas, though it isn't much taller than 5th.
I'm interested in looking at different colored chains. Does anyone know if one specific brand of chain/sprocket is exceptionally good over others?
I'm also looking at maybe doing a 6-pot caliper swap, wave rotors, and black or silver braided brake lines. Any good places to buy? If I can find out which exact models of bike has the 6-pot Nissin calipers that fit the 03S3 I should be able to find them on e-bay for relatively cheap.
LED replacement bulbs for our tail light fixtures. I'm considering dumping my current LED setup that is going to be a PITA and buy a second tail light cable and make a triple brake light assembly to go above my exhaust and blast tailgaters with light when I tap the brake. I'd really like to find LED replacement bulbs that light up red so I don't have to make a red housing, though my machinist buddy may be able to come up with a fitting that I could just pop in a rose colored piece...
I'm going to try and make an aluminum engine cage to protect in case of a highside/lowside situation when the weather warms up.
Pirelli Diablos. I've got a local discount at a shop in town so I may be able to order all the parts I need from them. I just need a list of names and part numbers that match the bike so I can start getting my list together and budget how much I'll need to just do it all in a block.
