It is from the user named "Vandriver" over on TLPlanet.com. He makes almost all the billet I have on the bike including that top triple. Sorry so slow to respond... I always forget to check on here for comments.
Thanks I just ended up buying one that’s so long ago. I got it running the right way and the plastic on the right side it’s just completely gone and I like the way you’re fearing set up.
Absolutely enjoyed the "out of the box thinking" in putting together this piece of art! You've got the eye brother and the extreme taste. Got to respect the naysayers as they come torn between the beauty and the apparent BEAST! keep me in the loop at the next walk around... inspiring.
just when I think the South is a lost cause I see something like this. your bike is first rate and a benchmark for what most of us can only dream of. odds are I can't take your political views but your ability to know whats perfect in this bike is truly awe inspiring. props.
I'm a TLR owner and have never cared for the TLS but your bike is the best looking/modded TLS I've ever seen....I *MIGHT* look into getting one of these now....for the wife of course. Haha....Very nice looking bike dude...
There are belly pans now available in carbon fiber at zerolimits. The mirrors are Roaring Toyz and available on eBay or online. All TLs had stainless headers so your's should polish up just fine. You said you had slip ons though. If you actually have slip ons you have an aftermarket exhaust. If the exhaust cans bolt on and you have black headers then you probably have OEM and you can polish them out. I got my Ohlins steering damper in great shape used for $200.
Was debating on buying this 2000 tls but after seeing this ......thanks for helping me say yes ill take it even tho it looks nothing like this but just the thought of it is good enough for me. Thanks dude for the video
Awesome bike man, nicely done. I don't know about the green, but that's just my personal taste, still looks like a beast man! Hope to own one somewhere around winter. Ride safe! Greetings from Holland.
great looking bike man, hoping to buy a TLS myself. The ohlins rear damper mod will probably be first on the list. Lots of really nice mods done on yours.. The thing is just mint! Nice work
East coast, yep... I do most of my own stuff. I've not done a ton of tuning but when I need ECU mapping etc... I usually use guys from TLPlanet or TLZone.
@PH3NOM3NON03 Thanks! My paint is from a 2010 Kawasaki ZX10 so it's easy to find. The upsweep on the TLR is different from the TLS is the only real difference in the way the pipes set. In order to get a lower sweep on the pipes for the TLR you would need some custom header work. =)
@f100kls I just keep the bike clean. I clean it after every few rides and I NEVER use soap/water/bucket. I only use chemicals and cotton towels. Degreasers, windex, spray wax, etc... Thanks for the comments though. =)
how did you get you chasis frame, forks, swingarm so clean, it looks like it has just rolled out on its 1st day from the factory floor. have you painted any of them?
Thanks for all the positive comments... but believe it or not, a LOT has changed since this video... I'll be posting an updated one soon with tons of carbon fiber parts, including my carbon fiber BST wheels!
Hi. I have a TLS as well. 2000 model. Where could I get lower plastics/fairings from? I understand this was suppose to be a naked bike, but in my opinion, it's looks way better with the lowers. Your bike is beautiful!!!! I wouldn't even want to ride it. Looking at your bike gives me hope. Thanks for posting this vid.
i guess im asking randomly but does someone know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Roman Major I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@lambo930 Nope... it's a TL1000S. I have added the lower (aftermarket) fairings to it. I'm doing a new walk around soon since I have taken the lowers off and went with a belly pan. It's very easy to tell the TLS from the TLR in other ways too... notice my tubular frame, and upper fairing design. Easy mistake to make... but it's a TLS.
@Ghost360MAFIA I just got a 2k TL, I like your bike alot!, I was also leaning towards a belly pan or chin fairing. Really like the Mirrors and carbon heel guards! Would you happen to know if my 2k has the SS headers, as I have the stock headers with Yosh slip ons and would like to polish mine! Also, how much would I expect to spend on the Ohlins steering damper? I know the Swingarm damper is way high! I just joined TLzone recently! "Vtwins4ever" haha, kinda dorky I guess!
Nice bike man, like your bottom fairing and clutch n brake levers, i just got me a tl aswell 97, shes nice n straight ima mod her out too, its my first "big" bike, ridden heaps of mean two strokes but these are somthing else, ive always looked down at jappa sports bikes, ive personally always wanted a vrod, funny how i ended up with a tls.. ;0)
I got it from an eBay seller but I don't remember who now. I have donated that to zerolimits for transferring to carbon fiber. Look for my new video to see the part in carbon... and it's available on that website now.
Hey, if you don’t mind me asking, I just bought a 2001 Suzuki TLC 1000 S. I am looking for the fairing kit kind of like the one you have on yours where would I come across one or where to buy one? Appreciate if you can contact me backmy name is Scott Sinclair by the way
@MrLajoieable Sorry I haven't responded to some recent questions... just don't get on here much. I really need a new video like I said before because so much has changed. To anyone asking about the clear clutch cover and pressure plate, etc... you can get them at tlplanet.com from forum member name: Vandriver He makes TONS more than just that piece... nearly every custom billet piece on my bike is from him.
@toe2toecory That's a good question. The bike has already had more things added... the biggest one being carbon fiber BST wheels that are freakin' amazing. You can see pics of how it looks now here: flickr.com/photos/ghost360mafia/sets/72157625171846976/ They way it was in the video I have to have $6k - $8k to not feel bad about selling it, the way it is NOW, I'd need $8k-$10k. Those prices aren't even a big "profit" considering the investment. Of course it's NOT for sale. =)
The original style in plastic, I believe was called "war eagle" but you can't find those anymore. I donated my lowers to www.zero-limits.co.uk for molding into a carbon fiber version. You can buy them from that website... If you can't find them on their, email them and they will work it out with you on a set.
@deerdorph There are two websites that you MUST be a member of if you own a TL. They are very simillar and most guys are on both. tlplanet.com tlzone.net Both are free to join and you will be glad you did. TLP member N2wheelies makes these trays for the TLS but I'm not sure if he makes them for the TLR. TLP member S14unimog definatley makes them for the TLR.
@RLSpruill Thanks! I got the lower fairings off eBay, I think they were $120 primed and pre-drilled with all mounting hardware. Several types are on the market. I like the look too! They are thinner than OEM and you will need aluminum heat transfer tape for the area around the exhaust since it doesn't come with it. If you are not a member of tlplanet.com or tlzone.net join right away... It's free and there are tons of helpful people on there. My username on both sites is GhostMAFIA
@Ghost360MAFIA If you remember or find your seller, will you let me know? I've searched everywhere and I'm having a rough time finding them. Thanks for your help.
just trying to get my tl s kinda like yours , there's a lot of parts you have I can't find ..the carbon fiber on your it here video and the carbon fiber lower fairing ...I can't find that faring anywhere
Almost all of it can be found at www.zero-limits.co.uk There are plenty of great guys and gals at www.tlplanet.com or www.tlzone.net That can help you find any part you see on my bike. That's where I got nearly all my info. Sorry for the lack of responses in the past.
@Daliadanny I bought the lower fairing from eBay and can't remember the seller's name. I don't think the fairing had a name, or style... at the time the seller was selling them all the time, but I guess that's long gone... sorry.
East coast, yep... I do most of my own stuff. I've not done a ton of tuning but when I need ECU mapping etc... I usually use guys from TL Planet or TL Zone.

Ride safe! Greetings from Holland.

Beautiful bike man. Where did you get the bottom front fairing?
Up front I have Motrax LED signals and on the rear they are integrated into the tail light (LEDs as well)
Hi. I have a TLS as well. 2000 model. Where could I get lower plastics/fairings from? I understand this was suppose to be a naked bike, but in my opinion, it's looks way better with the lowers.

Wow just awesome. Love the TL engine

I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Holden Crew instablaster :)

@Roman Major It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D
@Holden Crew Happy to help xD
Very nice!

Easy mistake to make... but it's a TLS.
Great bike!!!
Woow awesome look!
That bike looks sexy as fuck! Ive never seen a TL look so good!
@Ghost360MAFIA I just got a 2k TL, I like your bike alot!, I was also leaning towards a belly pan or chin fairing. Really like the Mirrors and carbon heel guards!

She’s beautiful!! I need me the Lower plastics. Where can I get them?
Bad Ass Bike!, and I also Love the Lower Plastics*
Ghost, are you on this east coast by chance ...who does your tuning?
I LOVE IT ...
Mine came with brackets when bought new... The carbon ones do not, but they are easy to make.
Ghost Mafia,.......where did you get the lower fairings for the tl1000s.??
I got it from an eBay seller but I don't remember who now. I have donated that to zerolimits for transferring to carbon fiber. Look for my new video to see the part in carbon... and it's available on that website now.
Hey man I'm trying to find some fairings for my bike and I was wondering what years fit the 1997 suzuki tls1000
Thanks for video! Cool bike! Can you tell where have you bought Lower fairings? I cant find it for TL1000S :(
Did you ever find out where you can get the bottom fairings ??
Wow! Listen to the hillbilly KY accent! Lol! Serious great vid.
hey , i was also wondering how you made your headlight clear, I was thinking to tint mine, but i like the way you did it much better
where did you get the lower fairing
Hey I'm trying to modify my headlamp so that it's clear like yours, where can I find that at ?
I'm uploading the NEW video tonight... so I can show everyone just how much she has changed!
Nice job!,,
Maybe you can help me I have the same bike I'm looking for those two bottom left and right fairings please let me know any information
Hey, if you don’t mind me asking, I just bought a 2001 Suzuki TLC 1000 S. I am looking for the fairing kit kind of like the one you have on yours where would I come across one or where to buy one? Appreciate if you can contact me backmy name is Scott Sinclair by the way
Who makes the lower fairings? I'm going crazy looking for that one..I would like it in carbon fiber as well..please let me know
Did you ever find out where you can get the bottom fairings ??
@TelmoParreira as above, you can visit: TLPLANET.COM and look up forum memeber: Vandriver for all things billet for the TLR and TLS. =)
@MrLajoieable Sorry I haven't responded to some recent questions... just don't get on here much. I really need a new video like I said before because so much has changed.
To anyone asking about the clear clutch cover and pressure plate, etc... you can get them at tlplanet.com from forum member name: Vandriver
He makes TONS more than just that piece... nearly every custom billet piece on my bike is from him.
trick biike,, i like the bottom fairing add
@Ghost360MAFIA ok the R has 10 hp more, and a full covering.
@toe2toecory That's a good question. The bike has already had more things added... the biggest one being carbon fiber BST wheels that are freakin' amazing. You can see pics of how it looks now here:
flickr.com/photos/ghost360mafia/sets/72157625171846976/
They way it was in the video I have to have $6k - $8k to not feel bad about selling it, the way it is NOW, I'd need $8k-$10k. Those prices aren't even a big "profit" considering the investment. Of course it's NOT for sale. =)
I have the same bike and I really want the bottom plastics, where can I buy them from !?!?!?
