Default Rath parts installed. pics too.

I just finished installing the Rath subframe, Heelguards, intake kit, & number backgrounds.

I guess there's no doubt what they say about "race parts". They were very ill fitting and troublesome. Haven't had time to test ride but the pics are in my gallery.

So the parts didn't fit well huh? What had the poor fit? The subframe, heel guards? Sure looks tough, and I like the number. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Props to ya man, think I may have to utilize it as well.

Did installing the subframe lower the seat angle any or is it lighter or what?

Bryan, the subfram took some tweaking to get it installed, not a big deal. The problems were bolting everything on. The battery box was too far back so the solenoid had to be relocated slightly. They had no place for the rear shock resevior, so that had to be modified. Then after installing the heelguards(weren't perfect either) the fender bolt holes were not even close. I had to drill different holes for them too.
Like I said "race parts".

Thanks hozed, overpriced & under engineered.

The subframe is stronger & lighter. Mine was starting to crack so I upgraded. If I had another chance, it would have been replaced with a stock one (and wouldn't have taken a month to get!).
