    Default Turning my RS into an RSS

    Hi all. I bought my 2012 RS in black and have decided to black it out even more. Then, I decided to turn it into an RSS, since there are no black ones out there and it would be unique.

    I guess my question is....

    After I've done the following mods:

    Black handlebar cover replacement
    Fox Shocks
    BRP stitched seat cover

    What's left? I installed a Two Brothers
    Muffler as well.

    Thanks!

    It'll never be an RSS unless it has two toned paint!

    Like Kratos said two tone paint and graphics. I, like you have a black 2012 RS, I also put on the Fox shocks (solid upgrade) but I stopped short of the seat because seats with exposed stitching that I've had in the past tended to get wet past the stitching if I got caught in heavy rain. The two-tone RS-S is a sharp look, but I love a basic black bike.

    Love the black...

    I guess I'll have a hybrid RS/RSS bike, but hey, it's mine!

    And you have to black out the lower frame components and wheels too.
