Looks like an X-Wing paint job, do we call you Red-1 from now on? Lovely job mate.

Here is the result after installing all the parts I have bought this month.

SC Project exhaust
Gilles Tooling speed holder
Tommaselli Clip ons
JBV front fender
Mini Led indicators
Renthal Grips

Man i really hope you're still active in the group. How did you fit the clip ons with the stock headlight brackets? Can you show me some pictures? I got some clip ons and the gilles speedo holder from your post. But the clip ons clamp seem to be interfering with the stock headlight brackets. I'll really appreciate the help, thank you

I went for a 250-mile ride in the country, got 195 miles out of a tank and 61mpg. It’s great when there aren’t any stoplights around!

I don’t ride real hard. Usually about 10mph above the speed limit on country roads. Long sweeping turns and very little stopping.

Three goodies showed up today, headstock stand to lift weight off the forks. 20 weight fork oil to increase the damping and preload adjusting caps to up the stiffness. The preload caps are about a cm longer than stock even at their softest setting and were a pain to get screwed in fighting the spring. Almost all the static sag is gone, which had me worried, but it’s where it should be when I’m on the bike. Went for a quick rip up the road to the local ski hill. Lots of twisties and quite a few sections of rough pavement. It handles so much better now for my 100+kg mass (225 lbs).
