Top 5 sport bike
comfort modifications

When you get your first sport bike you are overwhelmed and think it's perfect and you need nothing more. Well I'm going to be a little in your face here and say that actually you will get to a point where you will wonder what you can get to your bike, not only to make it look more customised but also to make it suit your taste.

And if you wonder what modifications to make on your sport bike, you're in the right place.

First I'll say that there are several modifications that are a "must-do" and several others that just come in handy and give a meaner look to your precious.

Top 5 must-do modifications on a sport bike:

These mods are called must-dos because they not only make it more comfortable but they also protect your bike from eventual accidents and scratches and etc.

1.Crash sliders- Here I will only say that this is a very recommended modification to your sport bike, because these crash sliders protect the plastics on your bike and they come in handy when you are new to sport bikes. So consider spending some extra cash on these things. You can BUY HERE starting from 15$. Search for your model !!

2.Stator covers- I wouldn't have second toughts buying this if I am a newbie or even if I'm not. These things protect the oil tank and big part of the lower side parts of the engine itself. And the repairment of engine isn't cheap as you may know. You can BUY HERE. Search for your model.

3.Fender eliminator kit - That simply eliminates the big awful plastic fender where is supposed to be your registration plate. It not only looks ways better but it reduces the aerodynamic resistance when riding at high speeds.

4.Tank protector- That is the "fish-bone" sticker put on the tank and is very well protecting the tank from zippers and belt buckles which could possibly scratch it. You can BUY HERE. Starting from 10$.

5.Crash cage - This one we can argue if it is a must-do but it's prefered if you really really don't want to brake your bike. So that's why it's optional and also recommended for stunters!!












Optional modifications on a sport bike:

1.Turn signals replacement- We all know that the aftermarket is better that the stock, therefore is better with aftermarket turn signas on many of the bikes because they come with HUGE turn signals which are not so... sexy.

LED Motorcycle Turn Signals - Arrow Shaped - Suzuki GT380, GT500, GT650, GT750Turn Signals - SMOKE Lenses - Universal Motorcycle Lights - Honda CBR 600rr 1000rr, Suzuki GSXR 600 750 1000, Yamaha YZF R1 R6, Kawasaki Ninja ZX6r ZX9r ZX10r ZX12r ZX14








2.Windscreen - Gives the bike a better, more customised look and better aerodynamics. You can BUY HERE after finding your model.















3.Clutch and Brake levers - These are so, so comfortable and practically unbreakable and a must-do in racer spheres. Even if you do not race they are very comfy. ASV levers. Pazzo levers.
















4.Xenon light kits - Now they really had proven themselves as the most light emitting bulbs and the brighter also. If you have also night rides this one is for you, if you just want to be seen more it is also for you. Buy here after choosing color temperature and bulb standart. Starting from 100$.
