    I've also taken off the air box cover with snorkel and minor tuning. Sounds loud and sweet now. Can't find a mechanic for rejetting in Pune, so need your suggestions. Two weeks ago changed oil to Shell ultra advanced fully synth 10w40, runs buttery smooth.
    Hope to upgrade the exhaust soon.

      I have been looking for knuckle guards. As you know, the stock ones are useless. I want something that is good and does the job. I am unable to find any leads in Bangalore. If you guys have any info kindly share it with me. Appreciate the help!
      You can get a pair of stylish knuckle guards starting from Rs.290/- (Meant only for show off) in JC Road, last time I enquired when getting HID kit for my brother's thunderbird couldn't get those as I was out of cash.

      Next month I'm gonna get K & N Filter for my Impulse then I will get those knuckle guards and share the pics.

          I have also changed the headlight bulb to Bosch halogen bulb H4 60/55 watt. Great improvement which is necessary for the dim oem bulbs especially in the rainy season.

            @Shadowz

            great pics bro.......

            the LED light really makes it more special....

            I find ur crash guard scratched..... or am i mis-assuming that for the light falling on it from that tank scoops???

            I too am waiting for the same answer...

            May be need to make a fold-able stand as a center stand which could be carried in that tool box.....

            Or i really appreciated taking a car jack and welding top n bottom with thick metal sheet so that it can be jacked from under. but i doubt it will fit in that tool box...

            have a look at this. (found in this thread only) - http://www.twtex.com/forums/showthread.php?p=559581

                    Woah there! No holes anywhere. Adhesive LED strips, secured with more tape. No problems at all. And that's light falling on the crash guard.

                    Nice pics coming along guys. Anyone with aftermarket handlebars?

                              Is that LED strip of tiny 10 LEDs or is it a single LED??
                              Is the headlight directly connected to battery?? I mean can you switch on your Headlight with Ignition on (without starting)
                              Finally, where did you get those rubber Fork covers?
