I love the R's Wyvern 4 into 4! But I love how the bike resembles the 750F, so I will bite back the urge and keep the exhaust stock. That said, that 4-4 IS SO SEXY!!!!!!

Dagersh - any idea who makes that seat and where I can get one? I'm saving your picture for reference!

The tank seam. A popular mod is to add chrome or black car door edge protector to either hide or highlight the seam. I think I might go with the black.
Chain guard. I think a chrome one would be nice, are they available?
Front sprocket cover. I have seen silver ones on the Brit/Aussie version. The jury is still out, but I think it would look nicer if it matched the stator and clutch cover.
Rider pegs. A popular mod on the ZRX is to replace them with modified Buell pegs to make them lower.
Brake pads and stainless brake lines. The stock pads make the front wheel dirty. I liked using the EBC HH Sintered pads on my other bikes with stainless braided lines.
What is on your farkle list?

I have seen a picture somewhere (somewhere on this forum, I think), and it looks great. Don't know who makes it, though. I'll post it if I can find it. I want one too.

I'm not sure where you can order it from though...

I have a really dumb question - what is farkle? While I get the concept, bling extras, add ons etc, what does the word mean? Never heard it until here. Thanks in advance for the enlightenment.

Thanks in advance for the enlightenment.I always wondered about that myself. I'm wondering if it came from the Laugh-In TV show (Mart and Bart Farkle)

I've seen that chrome chain cover, but for the life of me can't remember where. I'd like one too.
Edit to add: From the Urban dictionary--The word is generally accepted to mean a combination of "function" and "sparkle", hence, farkle.
Motorcycle enthusiasts may install accessories, called farkles (also spelled farkel), to customize their machine.
