Here goes just a small work completed this afternoon. 

First I have added small clock and temp. Although temp is avaiable also on main TCmax clock, it is not a primary option - we have to switch. But its button is located at the bottom and it is not easy to switch it in gloves. As TCmax power depends on temperature, I like to see present temp in cold days. Especially in the evenings. And I like result even if it is far not the best picture. 🙂

Second - I have mounted brake levers I ordered (btw: adjustable and foldable). I am not sure if I like them better then original ones. They are a bit too slim - so they are not very stable in the brake socket. And they look maybe a bit less solid. ;-]

But there is also another small option I will reconsider - I may buy black version of original ones or paint black my silver ones.

Anyway. It is nothing big. But I share as requested.

Folding? I really do not know. Just feature I am not fan of (one more moving element). Maybe it can protect lever from being broken when bike falls when parked. But possibility to adjust is nice - you can set it for your size of hand and personal preferences.

But it is also branded SuperSoco, and offers a few colors, what you can see below:

I have to update folding usage opinion. I started using it lifted as a hanger for my TCmax kees when parked in garrage. ;-]]]]] If I move my bike and alarm starts - keys are just in place to switch sound off. ;-ppp

@devian The benefit is that when the bike falls or you have an accident there are less chances of having a broken brake lever. Like the foldable footpegs

@olympe_222 - yes they are much stronger then original fragile ones.

@olympe_222 So your replacing a non broken part so you dont have to replace a broken part. And the part youre replacing has less moving parts to fail. Did I get that right.

@docweyr where did you get the clock from? it's something I've thought about adding, yours look like they fit and match well.

Ik have installed a front light protector ( sadly poor Quality productionmarks on the frame) and a small screen.

 Ik am doubting to install a retrostyle full fairing, and a other seat.

My last mod was remove the passenger footrests (every gram counts). And i swapped the left with right footrest. This way the footrests are more backwards. For me it's more comfortable as i have quite big legs and it's a bit more sporty position. 

Once it's our off waranty I would like to install a fairing. Had anyone tried that before?
