Peeps, another update, i guess the "Square" headlight of his R has been creepin up his bung hole that he couldnt stnd it anymore & he had to SELL it last night. Talk about traitor huh? Ask him what he plans to get...c'mon, ask him....(Hint, its not an S4)
Sorry to burst your bubble Dick, but its still an S4! Im expecting delivery on monday. Its got brembo brakes, gold chain, braided brake hose, brand new metzeler Z1 tires upfront and back, full system exhaust and only 22,000 kms. on the clock. Can't wait to pimp this ride dude!
Are you sure?!?!?!?!? |

This is my wee baby, a wee bit tatty here and there but not bad for a daily commuter!!
I changed the back wheel over yesterday and because it has been polished, I had to do my front one today!!
Looking forward to getting my new rear fairing and hugger from Jimmy!! |

autotsol, ah the stuff of chromo lovers, i had a 125 honda shadow before the super four and it had chrome everything, the wheels were the worst tho, i'd have to be out with the autosol after nearly every ride just so they looked slightly silver, never mind being shiny, thank goodness for black wheels now, and don't even get me started about the exhaust, why do you think i chose a super four with the black downpipes
care free biking |

Bartlett, if your handy with a welder and your sick of the back end of your exhaust looking like something off a moped but can't afford to replace it, try this.
Before: Booooooo!
New stainless end piece (before being welded on): Hoorah!
Other recent improvements include smaller indicators, braided steel brake hoses, 50mm s/s mirror extensions,replacement of all sh1tty mild steel fastners with s/s, chopped down rear mudguard and a smaller numberplate.
Anyone want the original bricklike indicators ? |

Cheers Bartlett, numberplate was from malplates.com click on show plates and design your own, plate arrived 3 days after ordering. Indicators are from M&P, £15 pair, brake hoses from a little bikeshop in Cramlington, stainless steel bits and bobs are from the store room at work |

Hey the exhaust looks beaut- do u still see the piddly 'moped' exhaust then or is it slighly hidden? would consider that wee mod for my wee baroness. Much work involved?

Nope, you can't see the original end piece, the new 50mm end piece is slightly offset downwards, but even if it was straight you still wouldn't be able to see it. The hardest part is chamfering the outside weld, I did it by hand for a better job, still need to do the inner weld though. I'll post some pics tomorrow. |
