Thumbs up

AdamOnealSays,

It's totally worth it to get the 3 into 1 pipe. The sound is low and throaty while idling but really screams above 7-8K rpm.

Plus, you'll save a lot of weight. I couldn't believe how much the stock exhaust weighed when the dealer handed me the boxes.

Finally, you can remove the passenger pegs and clean up the look of the rear end.

Ah, thanks I was wondering if those rear pegs came off.

First thing I'll do to the bike when I get it in March.

Those rear pegs totally protect the back end of the bike in the event of a tip-over or slow-speed fall - trust me.

Yup that sounds like the voice of experience talking. Thanks

I will be looking at options for sliders on the bike as it is going to the track occasionally.

I did a search on here but there are too many options and it would seem not all are effective.

I was searching for someone who was unfortunate enough to have first hand experience with how well the sliders worked.

There are several options for engine sliders, swingarm sliders, frame sliders etc. Looking for the best combination that are effective.

If the rear mounts provide some degree of protection I would be interested in looking at that.

Here's my account over on the Street Tripl Portal. I have since purchased the GB Racing 2-point sliders and engine cover set. Yepper, it set me back almost $400, but you can easily spend that on many of the OEM parts if they get busted up.

Here's mine. I picked it up from the dealer on Tuesday morning and haven't stopped grinning since.

My work colleagues take the **** every morning about it.


I'll post a proper intro shortly.


Cheers,

Adam
