The Yamaha Road Star Warrior Forum

These are all DO IT YOURSELF mods that require very little or no $$$ to do.  Please do not respond to this thread.  If you have any DIY mods to add or links to DIY mods please post them in this thread: http://rswarrior.com/forums/t/129309.aspx  as for I will continue to edit this thread.

All mods posted here are simply different ideas members have come up with to modify their own bikes.  In no way does RSWARRIOR take any responsibility for any damages as a result of you performing any of these mods.  You do these mods at your own risk.
