Well... left turns are fine. :-D


Seriously, I wouldn't know as I'm one of the '07 riders waiting for them to come out with a kit to fit ours. I'm sure tekmoe or dragonrider will tell you that there are no issues.

I just finished creating my own midpipe and fit the M4 to my '07. It's probably not as nice as a factory midpipe but works for now. I might get a new one from Kyle at M4 when they produce one. Love the exhaust and it doesn't sound too loud to me. A very nice growl that seems to get a little quieter above 70 mph.

No problems with cornering so far, but haven't had a chance to go to the mountains yet, that is still a few months away. I do plan to ride at the Homestead-Miami Speedway track days on Feb 9th and I will get to the forum with a report if anyone is interested.

I will found out on Feb 9th, it appears like I have clearance since I tried to simulate the cornering angle with a string. The pegs touch down first. But this isn't the real world such as suspension loading and all other factors. Time will tell.
