Haha not yet Papa Weeley, still don't get it for a couple of weeks, tho the plasti dip is ordered and will be here next week so the wheels are the first thing getting sorted. Been checking out Feks though not sure about them, they look great but very expensive and not sure if then i'd have to pay extra on customs charges ordering from the U.S. Didn't see any complete kits with lights included in UK. Maybe thinking i'll attempt to make something myself, i used a couple of bits of right angle metal to do it on my Gpx, although it was just for the number plate as the indicators n tail light were an all in one unit, but once i get the bike n have a closer look i'll see if i can dream up something.

Thanks ff73148, looked at the Togas though i think i'm kinda set on the TECs to be honest, like the sound, removable baffles n the fact they're not expensive either

Happy New Year to me!!

I bought the exact same bike, except mine's a 2009. 10 months later it doesn't look at all the same. Modding really is legal heroin.

Nice choice, Ash! And good choice with the FEK. For some reason, they look particularly well on the mag wheel Bonnies.

Don't forget, any mods to the breathing (i.e. new exhaust) requires a remap.

Cuídate y disfrute a tu nueva amiga. ¡Trátala bien!

Yes indeed and I have two of the worst addictions: A Bonneville and GOLF. I'll go broke someday. Who cares!

Good on ya, I've owned a "Tuxedo" 2007 T100 for a few months now, been walking right past my MUCH loved 1125 Buell and 650 V-Strom to enjoy the very groovy ride of the Bonnie. Presuming you're already aware of this site but if not...
