Great bike (I know, having just bought one in the same color- it's the American edition so there are some minor cosmetic differences), but yours is a 2013, not a 2012, right?

Little things, like a rear seat cowl instead of grab rails- I also didn't get a reflector (or mounting bracket) at the fork tube (though I believe that's a SE Asian thing)- looking forward to seeing how your bike progresses.

Make sure you change those heel guards or paint/powder-coat them black- it transforms the look from the side, IMHO.

thanks for sharing, the bike looks great!

I have one quick question, did you have to buy longer brake lines with the risers?

Thanks in Advance

I'm not to sure on the C8/9's or the AA/FC.
The current FD definitely Don't require them for this mod.
One of the earlier models had an issue with a hard line but not sure which one.
Just reach in and make sure all the lines have slack and that you can move them.
Some early models have a zip tie that needs to be removed.
If you can move them by hand It should be all good.

The M4's finally arrived after doing their world tour of the US for 2 weeks.

Banged them on and boy are they nice. I don't think I'll even bother with the baffles just yet.
There loud on song but decent at idle.
I'll try to get a sound clip up later.

What where they thinking when these where drawn up.


I can actually see my chicken strips now and can get to work on them.
I can also get at the chain and rear wheel..

I had hoped to get it back on the same dyno so the results would have been comparable.
I had to swap dyno's at the last minute because of issues.
it made 191.3 on one with stocks.
it made 190.6 on a different dyno without any baffles in the M4s
The only way now for me to give you a for sure is to fit the stocks and run again on the current dyno.
I can confirm the speed limiter in the Woolich Program works as well as the rev limit increase.
It went 318kph at 11.500.

I love everything I see on this page, except one minor detail! Get the bike off track one and ride it as she was intended, in "F-off"

Back to our scheduled program! Carry on...

I didn't find it all that difficult Yannih.
I did fit the bolt in reverse which made it easy but I used a small 1/4 inch drive on the front rim side.
While holding the rear side with the hex head.
I never even had to turn the handle bars and left it on the side stand.
Get onto me when you next out for a punt and I'll see if works going to get in the way.
I work some weird hours man.
The Sydney Drags are running a Bike Night on the 10th October which is a Thursday.
$55 entry.
Should see if we can get a group of us going.
