New kit installed!

Also finished a little detail wrapping and a decal that will give my track fairings a little more finished look.

What rake angle kit is that? My 24deg kit doesn't look like that.

Is that CRG mirror? what bar end and mirror do you use when you are on street?

I'm thinking which one I should get.

I think it might be. It came on the bike when I got it. I honestly hate it and wish I had the stock mirrors for the street. I hate not having more visibility here on the streets of LA.

The original mirrors are useless on the street due to vibration....unless you're riding less than 40mph. Freeway riding.....forget about it. The CRG Arrow mirrors give you a great deal of visibility, both to side lanes and even directly behind you. They are awesome and absolutely no vibrations....even at fwy speeds.

More goodies going on!!!

Ok guys. Bike is finally put back together. Now I've got a check engine light and that's got me nervous. The dealer service'd the bike two weeks ago to replace leaky heads. I rode the bike probably 70-100miles after with no issues. I break the bike down to replace the front end and now I have a light. I expected the red DES light as my electronic suspension is gone. Would that possibly cause an engine light as well? Help!

Absolutely would. No DES = CEL!

Love that fairing. Looks fantastic.

Yeah it throws a red box with "DES!" Inside and I was hoping that was it. But apparently it throws the orange engine symbol too.

Thanks! It turned out pretty cool!

DES removal causes a CEL. Doesn't matter if you remove the forks only, the shock only or both.

New suspension felt amazing! Unfortunately I was unable to go any faster. I think I need some professional coaching at this point as its probably less my lack of ability as it is seeing the track correctly so I'm in the right places to take advantage of speed!

it's easy just brake later and get on the gas earlier

on a more serious note check out YCRS they offer a very very good riding school which will make you faster and safer.

I talked to Jason Pridmore about doing a private track weekend with his Star motorcycle school this fall. Hopefully MotoGP doesn't steal him away as a full time commentator before then!!!
