    I'm hoping there's a tail tidy on the list:D;).

    Honda got it right this time with the exhaust...I think it looks really nice standard - no doubt there are "better" replacements to be had but OEM looks good IMHO.

    I think 'better' might be in the eye (and ears) of the beholder. No way known will I change mine - it does sound great, especially over 3,500 revs. I haven't even looked at doing the famed 'flapper mod'! (Assuming it can be done on 2017 - 18s?)

    I agree that Honda have to right when compared to the latest Euro 4 abominations from other manufacturers, this does look good. That being said i would be looking to replace it anyway if I could afford it :)

    I’m only going to put a tail tidy, rear sets and levers. Well bar end weights now that it’s making my hands numb

    Been wondering about those myself and seem to recall that I once posted a query on here with the result (as I recall) that aftermarket weights made little difference.

    I also get occasional numbness, but mine is partly due to Carpal Tunnel problems. Wondered about better gloves with palm padding then held off until I might strike a deal at the NEC in November.

    Good to hear about the tail tidy. Rad guard is nearly essential also - if you haven't already thought of it.;)

    Yeah:(.

    I did try to Photoshop the dust off, but it would have taken longer than cleaning the guard and taking a new pic!!
