It looks really good! I love the way the wheels look! You know it doesn't take long at all to modify the kawasaki flush mounts to fit that bike.. unless you like the "shrek ears" of course. I haven't seen another 08 250r besides mine with flush mounts and I think they look much better but that's just me everyone has their own thing so whatever... orange and black will look cool too I think.. to each their own!

tell me more about these flush mount mirrors, that is my next project after fabricating some LED turn signals.
where do you get these mirrors? what bike do they come on? can you post some pics?
Thanks

I've never been into white bikes either, but that is an extremely sharp bike you have there.

amen. i'd think it a rare color..
beautiful
kansas rider: dude.. if you don't get 20HP from just the cams alone.. man.. you've got problems!!
you should be able to get 10-20 from the cams and boring, then maybe another 30-50 on boost.
i build turbo systems. lol.. have a friend with a 550HP, 9 second E36 M3. building another one right now as well..
also building a TDO4-L turbo system for my 7..
a tdo-3 with about a .41-.55 A/R should work real nice for you bike.. or twin TDO-2's maybe... the problem with boosting twins of any kind is that the exhaust pulses are far enough apart to cause problems with spooling.. you need to run a smaller A/R on the hot side than you would with a 3 or 4 cylinder bike..
me personally.. i think ridiculous paint and a million inch stretch on a stock-engined bike is WAY too much.
stretching is for 1 reason- to keep from doing wheelies whilst drag racing.
wheelies usually mean you got a decent amount of power if you can throw it back just by rolling on it.
same thing with lowering.
my bike is SLAMMED to the ground, but it'll still come up if i clutch it up. not if i roll on it like my 600 tho..
the 600 stands right up in first at 4000rpm.. lol
now, if i see a sleeper type of bike.. like my buddy's 150HP busa.. theres a bike that should be f'in slammed and stretched. i've riden it.. its just stupid..lol any gear wheelies after blowing the tire off.
all show/ no go doesn't do it for me i guess.. i see mods, and i want them to be there for a reason.. if you're rockin a 10" over swingarm, i hope you have 200HP.
i could go on about this and trailer qqueens all night. i'll just stop here..lol
