I don't know what it is about these but i'm still to make my mind up whether i like them or not... i think it could just be the big red and white sticker though.
Much like the zx7r's big yellow sticker!
Nice bike all the same though, i wouldnt say no to it! ____________________ Current Bike: 1996 Yamaha TRX850 (The Japanese-Ducati One).

That arata exhaust looks LUSH! I remember Dale Lomas from Performance Bikes had one on his ZX6R b1h ages ago and praised it for its build quality. Saw the bike on MCN ninjas and thought - if only I had the cash and still had my 4 years NCB!
I think my next bike will probably be a B1H in black since i've always favoured black quacks. it does look angular and unique.
I also had those integrated indis on my ZXR250 and they weren't too bad. Eitherway, i was always a fan of clear lenses.
Tell you what, stick some HID's in there! Look for an ebay seller called dianneshop and order the right fitting for your headlight (preference would be if you have H7 lights, just have the xenons on low beam) - 30 quid is a definite investment and extra blue bling - DON'T bother getting 8000k, 6000k is diamond white and won't get you in trouble with plod. Loving your bike though. ____________________ The Tot 2007 Yamaha R1 4C8 2002 Yamaha FZS1000 Fazer &

I don't think that a rear shock mod would be needed just yet? It's only when you start to find the limits of the standard shock, or not surprisingly find that the shock is mullered would you want to fit a new one... Hyperpro track shock seem to get a good rating from the boys on mcnninjas - get yourself on there too. ____________________ The Tot 2007 Yamaha R1 4C8 2002 Yamaha FZS1000 Fazer &

I think the can may have a removable baffle, and I think £850 for a full system is pretty good, most akra/yoshi ones are 1k and up. |
Hmmm
I did look at them actually. The thing with rearseats, is that I like the position they are as standard, so buying them would be pure tart factor, I suppose that's what alot of mods are for though! They are a bit matt for my liking, but could maybe get them powdercoated?

Yeah, you have the option of not plugging the indicators in, so you can just have a clear lense, I might give it a go.
I have 6000k HID's on my car, I am extremely impressed with them, although £30 seems cheap??

The headlight covers are removed at dusk/night as I won't sacrifice my visibility for looks in that instance
craigs23 wrote: | I found the stock setup to be quite harsh - felt like a springboard plank when I test rode one; which launched the bike off road imperfections, rather than soaking them up. My twitchy Blade felt more secure down a bumpy backroad. Decent suspension doesn't need to do that. Get the spring rate right, the damping as good as a pro can make for it, and better use of the bike's lightweight flickability can be had (and thus confidence, composure and cornering speed). |
I have to agree, I found the bike shockingly harsh ride, I thought it was just because I hadn't ridden for well over a year! It's not something I'm too fussed about, I haven't really pushed the bike much yet except in a straight line so have yet to comment on the handling.
I have to say I've been thinking all afternoon about that exhaust system, it looks so so nice I'd be interested to know how it sounds though, and if you could maybe get one 2nd hand one to save some dough?
I want to book a trackday, but my credit card isn't accepted on the website, ghey!
Thanks for all your comments |

I've got that unit on by B1 with an R&G tail tidy, cleans the back end up nicely.
This year I've also changed the shock. I fitted an 07-08 shock with a 04-05 ZX10R linkage, makes a big difference to the harsh rear end. ____________________ the undemocratically unelected mod of the Scottish section |

Just while I remember
With that tail light you'll need resistors fitted or fit a new relay. I ended up putting a relay in it's far less hassle. ____________________ the undemocratically unelected mod of the Scottish section |
