    BTW, I was swapping bikes with my partner on his set-up 400exc w/ Fastway footpegs, and they felt really, really nice.

    No, got rid of ther grab rails (must have come off the Firth of Forth Bridge ... cast iron). DidnĀ“t weigh the two batteries, but the Shorai was so light that I could hardly believe that there was anything inside the box. The weights might well be on their web sites.

    I checked out their website and ended up ordering a set of their Evolution Air Footpegs in "red". Outside of the fact they look cool, I was sold on the ability to install them at a lower than stock height.

    Perhaps tire irons do some good even on the tour. Here, they help to protect the muffler.[IMG]

    A piece of Dural aluminum can do more good than to be idle in some hidden corner of the garage. The lock found a low center of gravity in it too.[IMG]

    A cheap little bicycle mirror found its place also....[IMG][IMG]

    And when I get tired of it, it's easy to protect it!

    Opps ..... GPS is an ideal to live together with the original instrument at TE 630, through a small piece of plywood table[IMG]

    All TE 630 dazzles not only humans but also the camera...... :)
    The full cost of these accessories 0 $.... Except tire iron, Gps and locks of course.

    Ghostbrother- I for one applaud seeing someone cavalierly take TE mods in a Mad Max-esque direction. I'd probably add one more layer of your armadillo style armor to the top of the skid plate, closing up the gap a little just to be safe. I wouldn't fancy adding weight to those cans myself (though at the weight they are I guess we could call it close enough to negligible), but admire the idea (true dual purpose- storage and def looks like durable sliders.) Thanks for posting and enjoy.

    Thanks buddy
    Buying expensive new accessory is not difficult to work enough money could be more difficult, but buying expensive ready-made stuff is not hard, things there are lots of, copies of copies.
    Making fine Exclusive homemade stuff is not so difficult that either ...... lots of hours of perfection and morality in the garage.

    To make it simple, is however very difficult and sits very deep, before it finally comes off, a fight against morality, order and control, my own rigorous armor, an armor to suffice, and to do a good job.

    My experience tells me that it takes some really tough enduro rounds before nature itself has shaped clear both the skid plate and the rest of the bike. It can be seen in the pictures how the bolts already become a bit too long and needs to be cut further.

    Yes you are right about the weight, and it's funny that you mention it, because it is the heavy weight that has taught me to drive sdom I do ...... For it was the heavy KTM 950 Super enduro I had two years ago that showed me that I could not run but just had to pretend to run a full Live the heavy bike, showed me that I need to learn the real truth riding techniques to do a good job in the saddle. And after having trained in a 10000 km in the saddle on Super enduro so it became one another to run the bike, so these 150 kg is a bicycle in comparison. two or three pounds or 10 kg plus orminus in the weight helps not any of us to drive better probably.

    However, I dare to have fun in the woods with these simple solutions, because I have nothing to lose anymore.

    Only people with morality may be immoral ...... the rest are free :)

    Scary bolts sticking out from skidplate! Just waiting to hook on something? (and posssibly do more damage than good) A skidplate should be able to skid .... that said I like pennytech mods ;)

    Skid plate ... The English word for Engin protection that we here in the north call it, and one of the main reasons why we use "skid plate" is to protect the engine of stone throw from the front wheel and from our friends in front, secondly is the base of protection for to protect against the impact on rock o mountain as we are reluctant to run, so if top of the engin protection include any bolt heads, or in this case the bolts sticking out play probably no difference .....

    And here is "penny line" despite what the eye says very effectively and we can not see all the small impact and damage to the engine cover. Helps me and others that have much more fun when we go off road.

    Not really a 630 parts purchase, but a riding purchase. My 630 is my only ride, so I suppose it qualifies.

    I bought it to replace some gear I tore up in my recent crash.

    No other mods, just a good wash and polish.

    Since I am working aprox 2000km away for home, travelling weekly, and after picking the bike up from winter storage and not having a garage to keep it in, a alternative solution had to be made. My wife was away on a short holliday and as I was to leave home I did not want to leave the bike outside the house. Better safe than sorry, so I left in our kitchen and hoped for the best on my wifes return.

    I am still married... :)

    I think the world would be a better place if I was taken less seriously.

    I'm too lousy of a rider to be called a "real motorcyclist", hence the head-to-toe body armor. :D
