b12ty Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I wasn't a fan of the black stripes on the side of my FJ so I got the ones from the red model (drmk designation)... I think they look great and they match all of my red accents while appearing factory. the background of the decal perfectly matches the grey plastic as well... very happy with this and the decals are only eight bucks each from the dealer. thoughts? comments? Looks great! Though it still wont be as fast as a real red one.... just saying..!

sixcharlie Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Nice. I'm thinking of getting the Euro MT-09 Tracer stickers in red. Rim tape looks good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spunrdneck Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Very nice looking !!! I also ordered some red rim tape What brand of tail bag is that ? It looks to fit perfectly. that is a chase harper tailbag... it actually fits as if it were made just for the FJ09! it has hooks with bungee cord that clip on the luggage rails. they tuck into a zippered compartment when not in use and becomes a backpack! holds my freeze out inner jacket liner (XXL) and my slime compressor plus a bunch of bungees and tie downs. Made in America with an unconditional lifetime warranty, pretty sweet really! I will do a review in "gear review" thread soon. bought it here for $68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to make up my lack of red HP with high performance carbon fiber items like gauge trim and motor bolt covers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jez Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Gold makes it a "John Player Special" edition.... That looks really good...... I tried to put silver rim tape in the recess of that plastic cover, the same as you've done, but i could not get it to go round the bend in there. How did you manage it ?

I've used a hairdryer to heat it up a bit which makes it more flexible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, i shall try that..... once i decide what colour rim tape to use on the wheels, then i'll use the same colour on that recess. Did think about gold myself, as the forks are gold, although they are a more orangey gold. I have the same matt grey bike as yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
