So in case anyone thought I had forgotten about my 695, here are some pics of a little work I did to it this weekend.

I never liked the stock taillight, and I've always wanted one more cafe-style to go with the rest of my bike, so I found this one lying around and fabbed a quick bracket to see how it looked. It came out pretty well, but I'm not sure about it yet, I want a more "bullet" style taillight.

I also added pods, it is amazing how much they clean the bike up. A little bit of wire relocation and the bike is looking damn good.

I made some custom velocity stacks out of glass fibre, but I think I'm gonna go ahead and make them out of Carbon.  [evil] They are much larger than the stock ones that come in the airbox, and some quick numbers tell me that they should add a couple of HP, just like the TPO Beast kit.

I haven't been able to ride it yet as I'm waiting on a new battery  [bang] [bang] [bang]









Some of you might notice that I'm missing an exhaust ;)  About that, ummm yeah, custom carbon cafe megaphones are on the way. "muaaahahahahahahahah"

Sorry the bike is so filthy, the tank looks like one big smudge! [moto]

Thanks!

I assume that the bike backfires quite a bit, I haven't been able to ride it yet because of a lack of battery, but soon....

Where are you located?

I used to have that same setup. But I sold the pipes and kept the chip.

the pipes are gonna look like this, but made out of carbon.

Can't wait to see them. Who makes them?

I did pick up a new R1, though.
