smlogan Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share #6 Posted December 13, 2014 Is there a fitment chart for the corbin seats. I desperately want one, I have it on my 96 RS but I want to look for it used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted December 13, 2014 Share #7 Posted December 13, 2014 Not that I know of. I had one on my '99 and Corbin even made the deluxe touring seat that was sold as an optional seat by Yamaha for the RSV but there were no options for it. It was the same for everybody.

Mike G in SC Posted December 13, 2014 Share #9 Posted December 13, 2014 Suggest LED run/turn/brake on the rear and the Custom Dynamics 100 LED tail. The stock rear lighting is really dim. Mine are stock fixtures, but bright red when on. Could also add a light bar under the trunk (Steve K's),,, but at least get brighter on the stock rear lights.

djh3 Posted December 13, 2014 Share #12 Posted December 13, 2014 If you get to adding many accesories like lights. You may want to add the ignition by-pass relay to help the load on the ignition switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewser23 Posted December 14, 2014 Share #14 Posted December 14, 2014 Couple of suggestions then a couple of questions if you don't mind. Swap out the rubber brake lines for braided stainless steel ones, huge difference in stopping ability and they look way better than the stock lines, I also installed a back off brake light modulator and a headlight modulator, they do wonders for keeping the cagers off your rear and from turning left in front of you. Love the wheel covers, did you match drill through the spokes or drill and tap the holes one side at a time, and last question, how thick is the material? nice work.

smlogan Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share #15 Posted December 14, 2014 Back in the day Yamaha used to sell these covers as a kit that I had on my 96RS...When the chrome started to pit I had 2 sets laser cut from the yamaha samples. 3/16 aluminum and I had to shave the edge on the back to accommodate the chamfer of the wheel. The pics only show a first pass at polishing. Wheel be removed again and done right when I do the set for my RS. Jobbed out at 140 per set material in other than the bolts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smlogan Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share #16 Posted December 14, 2014 And the throttle cables and brake lines have been swapped out for braided and I modify a Trucklite LED Brake lite and a home built modulator for under 30 bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
