I'm finally done modding my bike after receiving it in Oct last year and thought I'd take pics. My custom highway pegs are on the last 3 pics.

Looks very different now. Quite clean. Your highway pegs serve as a frame slider, too (y)
I was about to do this same thing, but I'm a sucker for orange wheels. I'm doing a tire/wheel swap tomorrow with another local 390 owner who wants black wheels. Hence the orange wheels, I'll keep the orange graphics. Photo shopped picture attached. Your bike looks awesome!

Little update.
1. I blacked out the KTM Racing Orange on the engine which didn't suit the overall look of the White/Black scheme I am going for. Took painters tape and a black paint pen and carefully painted the outermost lettering. it is holding very quite well.
2. I took off the WP Racing sticker off the front shocks since I am going for a clean look. It stands out far less. All of the legal stickers will stay on.
3. Ceramic coated the header pipe from the engine. It no longer looks like a cheap lowend bare metal pipe.

Do you have any pictures of the header pipe, color and texture, now that it's been coated?
No. I really should have taken pics without the bottom faring installed. Maybe I'll take pics later.
Looks awesome!

What levers do you have?
Nothing special. Some China brand off amazon short lever because I didn't like the long stock lever.

How do they fit? Any extra slop you don't get with OEM?
They fit jand are just as strong as oem quality. The feel is personal preference though. There is a rounder lever whereas this model is square.

If you are referring to slop as in pulling the lever 2mm or so and there is no engagement then that is just an adjustment you have to make with any lever to whatever comfort level you like.

Thanks .. The slop I was referring to would be up/down movement in the perch.

Also .. No clearance issues with the brake lever contacting the throttle housing? About to pull the trigger. Thanks
None. I'd get it off amazon so you can return it if you don't like it.

I'll likely purchase those levers this week. I am in contact with the vendor to see if they have the wheel adjuster type. I like the looks of those too.

Installed them today and they fit perfectly. Thanks for the lead :)
