    I've had my Intruder for about 4 months now and although it is quite a cool looking bike stock I have made a few mods to make her my own.

    Modifications completed:
    ================
    1.) Shortened stock Bazooka muffler by half, custom made baffle for better flow and sound
    2.) Replaced stock air filters with Red/Chrome BikeMaster Oval style
    (carby required re-jetting & tuning after above mods)
    3.) Modified stock rear light and Indicators with LED retro style
    4.) Replaced front indicators with grill style LED & mounted to side of headlight
    5.) Moved Ignition switch from LHS near seat to RHS front of tank
    6.) Custom handle bar grips, front foot pegs & horn
    7.) New chrome/braided front brake line
    8.) New rectangle style mirrors
    9.) Added Bikers Choice Mini Tacho
    10.) Painted Engine, exhaust shields Satin Black


    thats about it for now, if anyone is interested in more info on any of the mods feel free to ask I will gladly help you out :D

    Nice, looking good. :thumb_ups:
    I like the way you have used the pod filters but left the plenum chamber before the carbs. Should work SO MUCH better than sticking a thimble sized pod directly onto the carb. :D

    Thanks Murdo, it breathes so much better with the air pods, had to richen the mixture slightly to compensate for the extra airflow and runs heaps better
