IMO, he sounds like a high speeding bikers and his liking tend to sports bike. I guess R6 will suits him well

The naked monster is high with torque, light and you will really enjoy twisties. In straight, u’ll be smoked.
If R6 is around 78k, 675R is the best contender you must consider too. At least 675R come with package of a performance parts.
Save the money from Ohlins & Brembo

Im not sure about ER6F/N parts but for superbikes, many used parts available globally.
Just google for wrecked or salvaged motorcycle parts and you can found variety of choice and even with the same color of your bike. Go find seller that detailed the exact condition along with photo of the parts before you choose any.
Even in ebay also you can found all used parts. Otherwise, major online accessories store are selling brand new OEM parts. Open the fiche site to see but of course will be much expensive

Forget it if want to go for insurance but for others who look for alternative, you guy should check it

The same I wanted to ask. The slider seems a little backward in position and was not mounted to the chassis/frame.
You can imagine when you low slide. The slider should be the most outer parts.

The slider shall be as shorter for more rigid.

This is great but too bad i could not join.
Hope this can be the inspiration. Especially those who riding R1

Nick Sanders Around the world

I’ve seen few bikes here using bitubo (front and rear shocks) but never see toby damper before.

Like others, some prefer Brembo for brakes, rotor etc on their bike while some other would go for high end like Beringer.

Things to consider is after sales service you might need. Expensive aftermarket parts like Ohlins always have their parts available like seal espcially, replacement spring etc.
If not mistaken, there is authorized Ohlins service centre in KL where you can send your parts for interval service like damper or shocks & suspension. Otherwise like other brands, you may need to send to authorized centre overseas which will cost you money and time.

And for damper setup, you can only set it up during track day where you will go round and round trying to get the best setup. Single track day sometime will not enough because it need together with both front and rear suspension setup.

This is only my opinion. At the end, you can always check the review and decide yourself for aftermarket parts that you like.

Check with other guys with same bike like you or online forum. Damper like Ohlins would cost around USD400-500 nowadays.

But if it is really a cosmetic matter, better save for Termi slips on or even a full system. Make the sounds and power more happening

Good luck bro

Leo Vince - U already have among the best aftermarket exhaust esp the SBK series.

Slips on doesn’t do much on gaining horsepower. Restriction on the exhaust system (like EXUP servo on R1) must be eliminated. That’s why full system is required. Removing stock exhaust system may trigger check engine light depending on your bike model. Check carefully your bike system.

ECU need to read what you have on your bike. You MUST have like Bazzaz or Dynojet. Get the correct map or even better a custom map and check on dyno how much your hp increased.
If I were you, check if you can get the LV header for the exhaust, replace the stock header, re-use your slips on, get aftermarket filter then get PC or Bazzaz. An additional, dump in velocity stacks. Im not skeptical but should be around 5hp.

If you prefer that Two Brothers, they come with Juice Box as an option. For me, 1 time invest on full system will make you happy all the time. LV or Akra for me.
Happy modding bro.

Added on September 13, 2012, 2:15 pmBro Lucifah.. fuel consumption shall not be the issue to think about in getting more ummph of your bike. Im sorry but this is my answer. Maybe others can help.
My full tank 18 liter petrol will only go below 200km distance. I just really want to enjoy on what I did on my lovely machine.

Safe ride always bro

Like Yamaha R1/R6, the servo on the exhaust is connected to ECU. Once removed, you need to fool the ECU about the missing servo, thus necessary to install servo eliminator plug or DIY if you can. On your bike, check the service manual on parts that you going to dismantle in removing stock exhaust.

Yeah header normally come in full set of exhaust system. Just check if you can find header section of your bike model but as you said, Loud Pipes Saves Lives, get that full system.

PC setup need no competent mechanics. It is designed bikers friendly. Just download the necessary map, connect your laptop, upload the map and voila..
If you cannot find the required map with what you have, you can always send them email with details of your mod and they will provide you the nearest suitable map.

Unless you are thinking about adjusting your fuel curve, individual cylinder adjustment or setting the throttle position, u need pro tuner to do this.
Check your cans if the silencer removed or not. I removed both

Added on September 13, 2012, 4:35 pmAbsolutely. Still restriction unless going full system. And wait for your neighbor HD sounds

Necessary if you want to full utilize the map for a set of exhaust system. Different header with different mid pipe and end canister?

If you buy a full system for a specific bike, normally not much chaos for installation. Normally no mounting bracket modification. As easy as slips on. Only need tools like torque wrench with long extension, spring puller and some other basic tools

Lord R1 has spoken

Mine is full system LV SBK Evo II, titanium cans and CF end caps

Added on September 13, 2012, 9:47 pmBecause they have few joints in 1 system. And it is hard to install a single length of bended exhaust system without a joint. Not to say about welding or clamping in very tight area between the bike chassis.

Added on September 16, 2012, 10:56 pmIn case you guys thinking of Bridgestone as your new rubber, check out this Bridgestone tire selector.

For Bridestone, I believe 003rs is the best average for sports bike as what I seen but for others, it depends on the road condition and weather at your place.
Also your riding style, don’t forget the speed you go for your bike. My most concern, gripping power during track day and daily ride. So, multi compound is the choice.

I heard ppl saying about keeping the maximum pressure if you use for daily ride to prevent from ‘squared’ tire shapes. Don’t know how true it is and whether it is a cold or hot pressure setting to keep with.
At least Battlax is cheaper than Supercorsa.

Just my 2 cents

Added on September 17, 2012, 3:22 pmJust keep it in the bag. Don’t think so will be any problem. Other than laptop bag, they normally will not bother. Once transit at HKG. Yeah, they asked me to take out everything from the hand carry after the x-ray. But still it was a random check. My always worry is about our own custom officer at exit.
