Well I had the bike for about a month and a half. was black and had some rash on it. I had all these plans for the bike and finally coming through. It had stock black wheels and just a basic slip on exhaust. So far on this bike new hand grips, hotbodies undertail exhaust, fresh powdercoated white wheels. most of the fairing are ready for paint. will be all white soon. sorry for shitty pic bb pearl not so hot with bad lighting. ![http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c294/jkucz31/IMG00045.jpg](http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c294/jkucz31/IMG00045.jpg) ---

Hey I just hope the chain stayed together, that was the last time I had to use that tool. I’d put a steering damper and pc3 on top of my list. 2 big ticket items but the damper is almost required for that model, and the pc3 will help with the exhaust, and get you some good gains with a proper tuning. Solid bikes I’ve known quite a few…Good motor still, FI ftw. Super fast handling… though I’ve seen many people get in over their heads with these bikes so be careful until you fell really good about the way this bike handles. ---
