What's next?

[Arr MiHardies]

Starting to stash away some money for my next upgrade and need help deciding what to do next....
Skid plate?
Utopia back rest?
Highway pegs?
Ak 47 barrels sticking out of my fog light holes?
Steibel horn?
Off-road tires and air lift suspension?
I've got a couple small ideas for lights... Assuming they will fit... But I think I'd rather have something more functional than lights at the moment.

Back rest and pegs go hand in hand. Get Lamont's hwy brackets and the Utopia and you're good for awhile.

The AK47 sounds good.

I am into comfort options--so that is where I would go.

Problem with the pegs is I have the honeycomb grill on the radiator. I like the open cavity look. So unless I can get a Transparent heat shield my right foot will get darned hot.

Looks to me like the radiator would blow directly on your leg/foot

It would except I have this behind it and it looks like what you are wanting. As you can see it's hard to tell there is a block off plate there. :doorag:



SPY111 - $22.00 ea. CAN AM SPYDER RT RADIATOR BLOCK OFF PLATE

Keep the heat off your right foot by installing this insulated shield. Made from black polycarbonate and laminated with heat shielding on the inside.
“The Lamontster” tried this by cutting up his wife’s cookie sheet and it has proven to work
very well.

I also forgot the mention I have lights inside my radiator and oil cavities. The shield would block these. But if the pegs are behind the opening, it might work.

Only your top opening would be light blocked. Your lower should still show your lighting through the honeycomb. I know my right leg got toasted last year. Lights or no lights, I've got to do something about it this year. I've been looking at that closely. Sometimes comfort has to beat out the 'coolness factor'. It was kind of hard to say that, but I can still feel that heat during the hotest of days last summer.

 

[Arr MiHardies]

I'm wondering if there is any way to make a transparent heat shield.

Why not pop for just the backrest and perhaps the Stebel horn? Functional on both counts! :thumbup:

Do you have a picture of the AK47 barrels coming out of the fog lights? I have seen the AR15 barrels but not the AK47 barrel.

 

[Arr MiHardies]

The guns and the off road tires were jokes people.

 

[Bob Denman]

:roflblack: But the funniest part seems to be that some folks responded to them seriously! :roflblack:
Orrrr.... Were they joking too? :shocked: hyea:

bitsy, don't forget about your carbon fiber dash kit. They should ship to Pete in a day or two and then another few days to get to us... hopefully. Looking forward to meeting you at the Spyderfest. I'm one of the ride captains for MoGANG. My run will be taking you to historic MO. wine country. It'll be a beautiful ride (weather permitting). Reggy from TricLED is now a sponsor and will be doing installs for some basic lighting. See you then!:thumbup:
