Sneaking a bit of CF on the bike... :D

Waiting for CRG to release their CF levers still...






This is actually the 696 fender, but honestly of all the fenders that we sell, this is by far my personal favorite on the old monsters :)

A place you wouldn't expect to see a french tip  [cheeky]. How is the power delivery after the piston upgrade? I always feel like my S2R fades near the top end but I'm not willing to commit to increase the power as you have. Water cooled liter bikes just have to much to offer for me, suppose the trade off is complexity.

Lol.. actually having gel nails is really nice while working on stuff! My nails are naturally strong, but having the gel keeps them very durable!

Anyways........... I haven't gotten to ride it a whole lot due to the 20* weather, but a little over half throttle felt alot more responsive and powerful! The top end feels much better from what I did get on it.
Once it warms up, I will have to give you more updates.
The work wasn't really all that bad either to install them

I'm curious to find out about significant improvements in handling, barking, and power delivery. I've hear these carbon are the bomb.

So I got them on


Unfortunately, the rear requires a spacer, which I do not have. So I have to wait another week or so for that to come in!! So I'm currently just rocking the front wheel. Which that alone I can notice a substantial difference! It wants to change lanes quicker and turns alot more sharply. I took it on the freeway and at first was unsure as the front wheel seemed to really just float. But after a few mins I adjusted and felt great.

The rear is 9lbs lighter then stock and the front is 3lbs lighter!

Sweet!  I really really want some of those wheels.  [drool]  I have done more than enough in less than a year and that it would be good to have something to look forward to. 

She is looking nice!  (The bike, you dogs  ;D)
