ok...all the mesh is on and is currently setting as we speak..should be able to start putting her back together tonite when I get home, and if I dont finish it tonite, should be good to go tomorrow. Also got 2 new headlight bulbs, just got the stock bulbs..I wanted to go with hyper whites or an equivilant but that'll have to wait as we've got some birthdays and my anniversary coming up in october..so i'll add those to the list for over the winter/mods.

BTW..im borrowing my bro's digital camera tonite, so I'll have some decent pics to put up by tomorrow of the finished product.

Was able to get her back together this morning, started up like usual, no probs, headlights work (both new bulbs) signals all good.. Look pretty sweet if you ask me. CrunchieJD is picking up a digital camera tonite so we can take some pics when I get home, and put them up as the finished product, tonite.

Total Mod cost:

22.00 for both Mesh & Adhesive.. :thumbs: and about 2 total days to complete (that includes time to allow the ahesive/epoxy to set) Not too bad!!

Couple of em..

I've got 0 luck when it comes to cameras it seems...the pics w/ the dig. just didnt come out clear it all, and since it isnt mine, im gonna have to check w/ my bro and make sure Im working it correctly, but as per the old standby( uke: ) camera phone, here are a couple of em just taken this morning...

The first mod on the bike looks great. Very nice job Matt. :dthumb:

Good point Shan. And it does look alot nice!!

 

[Need4Speed]

Nope, wont rust..I was checking w/ the Home Depot guy there, and he said im good to go, and actually the stuff he sold me, was the same type of stuff he used to use when putting mesh on cars, in the performance shop he used to work in awhile back...just a different pattern.

 

[GSXR1000DJ]

Thats good it won't rust. That would suck and be a waste of time you just spent on doing it. Bring it by later and show me.

 

[Todd]

Lookin' good Mr. Kotter! :

 

[jdog]

Looks almost as good as mine. LOL. Nice job bro.

Thanks jdog & everyone..I really like the looks of it...I road to work today, and all seems well. Finally got the first mod done !! I got the fever for it now even more!! :dthumb:

 

[GSXR1000DJ]

Well. Swing by the house tonight after work and show us. We will still be up.

 

[DAN DUBEAU]

Lookin good Matt, that will probably be my first mod on my kat.

One question though. Can you still get at you idle screw through the holes in the mesh, or do you need to take the plastics off?

 

[Need4Speed]

REally depends on the type of mesh you get..some of it has the smaller holes that it would be harder to get a screwdriver thru..mine has a bit larger holes so that its still pretty easy to slip one thru it if necessary.

Its a real easy mod, and looks way cool!! :dthumb:

 

[DAN DUBEAU]

I'll probably start doing mine in the next couple weeks. I think i'm going to use some metal putty for mounting so i can drill and tap it. Then i can screw the mesh to that for easy removal later on. Might be tough but i like a challenge, i see what happens when i get into it. I will post some pics though.
