Just loving this motorcycle. Great bike for street and gravel exploring. Upgrading as I go thought i would list them here. I am not one to use a bike for big camping trips or hauling so no crash bars, racks, cases stc as for me it takes all the fun out of riding a bike. What I have done is upgrade the controls and protection so I can do some gravel and trail without fear. Also working on getting more power just for the fun of it. So... Real bars (my favorite Trailtech ones), taller (Motosportz mounts) and much stronger. Find them far more comfortable. Enduro Engineering hand guards. Mounted really well with these bars and clears everything. I did drill the inner mount hole on the right one further in so I could move the inner mount to clear the brake resi... See redrilled mount hole here... Zeta hand guard shield with blinkers built in. Will be removing the stock ones and wiring these up. Seat concepts seat. Liking it better every ride. I love their seats but this one was not a huge improvement the others have been. Very good but the stocker was pretty good to start with for me. My skid plate / Frame connector and add on front protection which covers all the hoses and cables. Dynojet PCV with autotune. Makes it run very good and adds power. Next up is my free flow mufflers, really looking forward to big wheelies
Nice set up Kelly looking good. You have everything that needs guarding covered in my books. Well except the rad thus the engine bars.
When you first came out with your skid plate, there was some talk about the production of 'wings' to add some additional protection to the engine. Is the splash guard pictured a prototype of something that may be available to those of us that are running Motosportz plates?
Kelly, you're killing me showing off those bar clamps all the time! I'm drooling. Are you planning to make more? I'm sure there are other buyers out there as well. It's simply the best looking option if we want real bars on the Terra. I don't see them offered on your site.... so how bout' it?
yes I have piles of them now at ano. Will pick up Wednesday. I need to Email everyone who bought a plate as many people are missing this post... http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/tr650-motosportz-skid-plate-wings-for-sale.34374/
My web site sucks, sorry, need to fix ASAP. I do need to build more. Was kind surprised at the lack of interest when I built the first sets so was not inspired to build more fearing they might sit on the shelves.
I think your problem (if you can call being first to market with a product a problem) is that you had these things so early in the life cycle of the bike that there just weren't that many people with Terras in the wild, hence the low demand.
Just made another upgrade / change. Removed the mirrors and put some wide angle ones under the bars / switch gear. Rode a buddies street bike years ago with this setup and it works well. I did loose some long range right behind me view but gained a lot of side and passing angle view. I think I like it from my short test ride. Will post pix later. K
Well, that's completely understandable Kelly. I'm curious, how many units do you have to make in a run to make it worth your while? 20? 50? Maybe we can get a pre-order list together of those interested (and willing to pre-pay), and see if there's enough interest for a run?
