Nicer Pics of My Bike + With Yamaha Logos
Hey everyone.
I wanted to post some more pics of my bike. I got the Yamaha logos in the mail the other day and put them on. I think they really complete the basic look I was going for...
Oh yah, these pics are in much better light than the other ones too.

Good looking bike. IMHO, get the streetfighter style dual lamps up front.

I agree, I looks good but I think it would look much better with dual lamps. (lot meaner too)
How much does a bike like that cost? How does it ride?

Thanks for the comps guys.
I HAD a bigger headlight on it, but the light output was HORRIBLE. I switched to the smaller light because it's brighter and whiter. I'm still in the process of trying to find a light setup that I like.
I like the idea of the dual fronts, and actually have another light just like the one that is on there, but I'm having some trouble working out a mounting solution.
As for how it rides? It's quick, but not ultra fast like a new bike. I've put a -2 front sprocket on it, so it's top end is not high at all, but it accelerates quite a bit better than it did before. I don't plan on taking it over 100 on the highway, so I'd rather have the uber-acceleration. It rides smoothly though, and the seat is WAY more comfortable than most true sportbikes...
Once again, thanks for the compliments...

I like it. It's an old Seca, right? They are very capable bikes. Not much for high speed, but nobody needs to go that fast anyway.

I think this headlight kit would look awesome on that bike. Not too expensive either.

Where do you find something like that at Manifest??
And it's the predecessor of the Seca II...and a bit after the original Seca. It's got the same engine as the Seca II, but it's called a YX-600 Radian.

Angry Guy Streetfighters sells them. They sell a ton of other kinds as well.
Here is the link to that one.

It looks alot like the Seca, I knew I recognized the motor. I like what you've done with it so far.
