Perth, Aus - Rokkkkiitttt

Then you will want more powerthen comes triple filters,pipes,and a tune,hmm maybe even cams and lock up clutch
 
Jardine and Preds are the only things out there with real header down tubes, I REALLY like my TOR's and probably will never go with anything different as far as the pipes. But if someone would ever make a set of headers that replace the stock manifold, that would be a must have. We need to put some pressure on those two to make just the header.

Of course, then probably a supercharger when the power of all those wear off.

Ain't that funny? .... no matter how badass and powerfull you make a bike, you always get used to it and want more.
 
Gotta take the bike through the pits too when it gets here, then get plates for it... another 10 days of waiting after i actually get it.. eh.

Thats always the case though, my last bike was only a 500 (i've ridden more, but didn't upgrade my own) and the stock r3 will keep me satisfied for a little while. But the bling is sure to follow shortly after - i want to use it part as a tourer and my girlfriend is bouncing around walls wanting to jump on the back instead of the 500 (shes using it as an excuse for me to buy her a new helmet hahahah... no), so no single seat.. lowered beast for me. But god knows im gonna do my best haha

By tourer, i don't mean windshield, corbin panniers and GPS. But, just a few comforts to make long rides easier

Yea, i've heard they're pretty **** loud though. I wanna be loud, but not ear splitting, cop attracting loud... if you know what i mean

I got the Jards,they are actually not too loud in the lower rpms,but when you stoke the fires they sizzle HD owners ears off
At idle they pulsate and you feel them as much as hear them. My neighbours tell me the R3 rattles the crockery on their shelves
Some cops I was speaking to at Subway getting dinner loved the sound as I pulled up,I dont know what they thought as I pulled away

If you ever want to hear them ,send us a pm

My girlfriend loves the classic seat as the pillion part is a bit wider than the standard seat.
I have a Motodry bag on the sissy bar which is good for day trips if she lets me put anything in there
On longer trips I put the leather bags on.
I also have the flyscreen which keeps a fair bit of wind off me but is not intrusive like windscreens can be.
I plan on putting rear aftermarket foot boards on to move her feet a bit further forward
I also fitted the clock and fuel gauge which are useful.
