I'm very new here and was wondering if someone here could point me in a direction for info on a few things I want to do to my newly purchased 696

1) SSS for a 2011 696 (im pretty sure its a 1100 swing arm but is there anything specifically to look at when buying from Ebay posts?

2) slim seat but still comfortable ( prefer my nuts not crushed lol)

3) shorty shorty exhaust like boomtubes, is there anyone else that makes something simular?

Thanks in advance.. I'll keep reading

#1 - Trade it for a 796?  ;D

#2 - Investigate Sargent. Flatter but I still recommend Tech Spec pads for traffic.

#3 - Not a fan of excessive noise...  [thumbsdown]

1. Not the direct swap as it might seem like. Search old threads on the subject. There where at least two who did the swap, there where problems with different wheel sensors, brake lines. I'd skip the swap and just upgrade to a bigger bike later.

2.  I was holding a Corbin leather seat last week at Laguna seca, very nice and very flat. I liked it but need a seat with lots of added hight. No idea what it cost.

3.  Quad-d ex box is simular. The shorty competition werks is loud and small. I've only seen one on an 1100evo in person and I was impressed. Not a fan of there other products tho....
