XXX 74 Mods...
I have not posted any of my mods so I guess is time for me to do it...
be aware that it is a work in progress... im not done...
The bike is getting a new paint job next week and lots of chrome...
so here are the pics...
Plastics are off...
And here are some of the parts going in it...
front and rear pegs / break and clutch and some plastic vents
Kuryakyn front facia
Ultra Sport shield
rear brackets for the rear fender
swingarm
HID upgrade for the fog (pic) and head lights (pic not included)...
BRP Can Am - fog lights
And lastly I have the 6 spokes chrome wheels and the rear wheel is chrome as well... I will post pics of the wheels later...
Handlebar middle piece ( is the only piece that is somehow on )
I also have more parts on the way: the Kuryakyn spyder pegs, the Kuryakyn grips with extenders... probably get a couple more parts this week...
I will post pics as I go...

Now I know we have to get together. We will shake up south Florida. When do you think she will be finished?? Where did you get the 3 chrome vents? I have a bid on a set on eBay. Now I have to get my swing arm chromed. Thank you very much.  Are you going to chrome your wheels. Where did you take your parts to be chromed? I took mine to Southern Plating in Hialeah. They do wheels also with a 2 week turn around. My highway pegs bracket should be finish Friday. Hurry up I want to see your baby

Im hoping to have this project done in the next 2 or 3 weeks...(or so)... I usually take my sweet time with my toys so this will be no exception... lol
I was going to chrome my parts but I got them from a really nice guy that had it all chromed and decided to get a T-Rex and he sold his Spyder stock...
Those were all extra parts for him that were never installed. he sent me all the parts including the plastic vents. He also gave me an extra seat.. so now i can get creative with the seat and run the stock one in the meantime... 
My wheels... well i have 3 front sets. The stock ones in gray, the stock ones powder coated in black (those look sooo freaking sick) and the 6 spokes in chrome... I think Im gonna sell the stock ones and keep the black ones and the chromed ones... just to change the look every now and then...
i also have 2 sets of rear: the rear wheel in chrome and also in stock silver with all components...
I got more parts coming my way and they should arrive this week...
I will keep everyone posted as i go...

**KewlMetal grip tip helmet lock**
This is the latest MOD... I had the grip extenders that add a nice look but that is the only thing they added...
Got the kewlmetal grip extenders... not only do they add a nice touch, they also serve a purpose... how convenient.
Now I can carry more stuff in the compartment and dont have to worry about saving space for my helmet...

**Autobots Vs. Decepticon**
yeah, I like Transformers... watched them since I was a kid (and im still a kid... the only thing that has changed are the toys... )
Dont know if you saw transformers part 2.. there are a few Spyders on the movie..
In the front of the bike i replaced the BRP logo with a transformers logo... but I have 2 versions.. the Decepticons (bad guys) with the orange piece and the Autobots (good guys) with the chromed piece...
Love them both and i switch them every now and then...
check them out..
