Cool 02 gsxr600

My gsxr600 went through some trauma before I got my hand on it. The owner before me had the bike painted a custom blue, and shortly after he droped it in his garage. Then I came and took it off his hands super cheap. I took off all the fairings and tank. I ordered a new fairing set-black with red flames. With the tank off I spent two days sanding and painting it black. Also I ordered the lowering links so while I wait for that i lowered the front. So far its look good. Check out the link.

I also have a question. I ordered the l.e.d. lights for the undertail (the two round ones) that spin I think that I need some kind if wire kit to really make the spining happen. Right?

Re: 02 gsxr600

First off, why would you lower a 600?

If you ordered replacement 1157 led bulbs, all you'll have to do is plug them in.

Imho tail lights spinners are a bad idea. I know Leon had them for a while and it seemed like they cause people to stare at them - like me . Not a good thing as far as safety with cars.

Re: 02 gsxr600

Exactly, I had them on a old bike for about 4 months. Too many close calls with people behind me. I removed them and used replacement LED bulbs that did not spin.
