I started off with this. A brand new 2011 WRR that looks just like every other WRR.



My goal was to first lower the seat height to around 35". I installed a Yamalink when the odometer showed 3 miles. I set the sag at 4.5". This dropped it 1".



I needed a way to carry stuff so I bought a rack from Automotive Machinery. I than added a RotoPax tank. My tail bag fits perfectly on top.







I still needed the seat a little lower. I heard many good things about "Seat Concepts" so I bought their "low" seat. I had the local upholstery shop install it for $20. I have not put it on the bike yet.

Nice. I am going to be ordering one of those seats soon.

Looking forward to knowing how comfy that new seat is! The stock seat gets uncomfortable really quick!

I just ordered that Moose plastic skid plate everyones been raving about.

With the link and low seat the seat height is 34 3/4 with no weigth on the bike. I took it for a test ride yesterday, sure was nice to be able to touch the ground. The new seat was very comfortable.

How is the comfort with the "low" seat? I would like to get one as I am only 5'10" or so but I worry it will be brutal on longer rides since it is thinner.

Great thanks.

Just installed the Moose skid plate. I can't really tell if it's any noisier which is good.

I like the skidplate,,,,how much was it ??

The next mod will be bars and hand protection. I would like some bars about 1 inch higher but I want something that works with the stock wires and cables. I'm thinking about going with the Highway dirt bike fat bars, top clamp and guards. Any suggestions?

Also, thinking about a small wind screen. I'm still researching this.

I just put a Giant Loop MoJavi bag on. It's great for a tire repair kit, tools, food and water.

I'd rotate the roto mount in case the gas can leaks. I know roto makes a solid tank but accidents happen... Gas leaking onto the exhaust would be very bad. :)

I just installed the Highway Dirt Bike's top and bottom ADV clamp/Contour Henry Reed bars/hand guards/mirrors. The ADV top clamp is a piece of art and features mounts for my GPS, Powerlet plugs and switches. The mirrors fold inside the handguards when the going gets rough.

Wow Blackdog - very nice. Will definitely put this on my list. A very stylish, tidy, and useful mod. Very practical for adventure riders.

Looking good dude!

I took a Wolfman left bag mount, welded a plate to it than mounted the Rotopax tank. This freed up my rear luggage rack. I looked at a bunch of tail bags and found that the one that fit the best is the one I used on the Buell before I sold it.







I think I'm getting close to being done. I'd still like to find a small windscreen and maybe a steerng damper.

I tried the $4 Velcro on Harbor Freight blast shield windscreen guys on here make. I didn't notice any difference at all so I chucked it.

Take that KLR650!

Nice bike!
