    Hi, the bike looks awesome, mines got the same Akrapovic exhaust, you need to get the baffle out as soon as you can it sounds BRILLIANT! especially when you hit 4000 revs!:)

    Oo ouch! I've a wee flag on mine & a big chain!
    Hope you're enjoying it? Got any plans to add or enhance any of it? I'd like new levers & guards. Take off the rear hangers & replace with road hooks.

    Rexpeed do a cheaper plate that allows you to refit the rear pegs if you need

    Just email and ask at [email protected]

    I have a pic somewhere when I had them fitted to either 10 or 13 bike :)

    Just thought I'd mention it :)

    Nice! Thanks for that, I've just found a guy that does tie down brackets on the Honda Fireblade Owners FB page! I'll post pics when I get them & fit them

    Hi and welcome from a another newbie. Great colour scheme this year for the BSB team colours and looks great in the flesh.

    Thanks very much! Yeah it's a bit of a head turner alright, attracted quite a bit of attention in Ireland at the UlsterGP!!

    Yes new levers are definitely on the list and a Tail Tidy with a smaller number plate, still waiting for the rear seat cowl as the dealer had lost the one that came with it (how they lost it I don't know!) so looking forward to that. Sad I know but I've just put new bar ends on that are chrome and say CBR on them, you've got to personalise it haven't you?... Are you planning any performance upgrades like a Power Commander?

    Don't think I'll need a power commander...fast enough for me!! I will be getting the suspension set up for me, there's a guy beside Knockhill does it. A mate got it done, said it made a huge difference! I've a long list of bits I'd like, will just have to slowly work my way thru it!!
