well it's been one of the longest weeks of my entire life, waiting to pick this up Very Happy

theres only one word to describe it, IMMENSE!

this absolutely wipes the floor with my 05 R1, and having the A B C power mode is handy as fook.

been riding all day with a pillion so not had much chance to test it solo.

as you can see the first mod has begun, away goes the stock twin cans and catalyser box bollocks. and in slots an amazing loud Racefit Titanium Mega.



can't wait till tomorrow, off out with some mates to get my wheelies back up to par.

PS this is a quick vid of the Racefit, unfortunately it's off my phone so sound quality sucks, trust me, when you see/hear me at a meet you'll be needing earplugs.


watch the flame that shit me up and knocked the bike off it's sidestand LOL

thanks mate Thumbs Up

I can certainly say that out of all the exhaust brands Racefit are top of the league IMO. plus it came with a removable baffle, bonus Very Happy


i'll get you a proper shot tomorrow, looks better with the sidepanel on and lower fairing.

needs a Racefit badge putting on too.

Lovely looking thing,

I wasn't keen on the blue/white paint on the newer models but the more i see them the more i like. Race fit is looking sweet too. Make sure you lock her up good!

are you going to remap it, or are you going to leave it with the fuelling that far out?

Also, didn't Michael Neeves test out something on MCN for the K7 recently, a product from harris which reduced engine braking, basically making the bike smoother on corners? I can't remember what it's called but Neeves said that it greatly improved the responsiveness of the engine?

Superbike mag tested that, as have people on forums. That vacuum thing (an 'intech'?) doesn't really do much apparently. £200 worth of 'snake oil' (as they say in the states)

i've just got back from an all dayer ride out, i'm absolutely fucking shattered.

it's unbelievably hard work riding this bike, the power it puts out is stupid lol.

went down Dans motorcycles first for a spot of food, then out with a lad on a gsxr 600 K4 and a lad on an 04 R1. mastered wheelies and KD's again and it feels goooood. only seen a 120mph wheely so far so still need a day out on my own to practice.

and for the lad that asked about comparison to the R1, the gixxer is far superior, the pickup on the R1 was a little too lazy for my liking, now with my cat box gone judging by what the mags say it adds another 7bhp at 7000rpm and you can feel the difference.


I fucking love this bike, if I die on it then i'll die with a smile on my face.

(the bloke on my gsxr is Scott who owns the k4 gsxr 600, he had one go of mine in A mode and absolutely loved it, baring in mind he stayed in 1st gear, and that's all it took to put a grin from ear to ear. I had a quick go of hid so I could KD on it round the roundabout, 2 goes round the roundabout and it scraped all the way round lol. I then jumped on mine and did the same)



and the green bike is.... well.... no comment.
