First to second gear cluthless shifts are rough most of the time, especially when the bike isn't up to temp and when you're not hard on the throttle. If you want smoother shifting without clutch, gotta get on the throttle harder and stay on it. I experience the same .... so I've gotten used to using the clutch on first to second shift and clutchless for other gears. Just like getting the bike in neutral, the bike is tricky and I'm assuming temperature plays a good part here.
 
So the AKRA is installed and holy ..... It feels like a different bike. Just adding the Akra, RB to come later it runs smoother and pulls harder in sport mode now than it ever pulled in Race Mode. Also the heat coming from the exhaust is nowhere near as bad as the OEM ...... Thanks to Zoh and Ferracci...

When I'm able to ride again, I'd definitely get the full Akra system and RB. Now, I'm just collecting blings :)

I was thinking about getting it but may need to pull the trigger sooner.

You will not regret it at all dude.. BTW the bike runs perfect without my RB module installed yet. Just straight Akra.

This might be the first time i have seen the clutch guard in use. Pushing the clutch in inadvertently at the track will do no harm (just a bit of a quick rev) unlike that of the brake which could mess your whole day up.

Its peace of mind for me that if someone or something like a mirror on the road hits the clutch lever there is almost no way to hold it in or hit it to even begin to allow it to blow the engine up and break the clutch lever ;) besides it looks better on both sides lol

I dont think it will blow the engine up... you can just let go of the throttle in that case, or if you just say screw it, the bike will hit the limiter and all will be okay. :rolleyes:

The last point, looks better on both sides, that is a good enough reason. :D I personally hate the look of them on one side let alone both. But the brake serves a purpose so its valid. :cool:
 
Had some new additions to the beast.. First a Big thank you to zohsix01 and rocdoc on here for the sweet parts.. I had Markbilt Racebikes install the Ohlins Cartridges and S/R wheels and bring to me at the track day and holy ...... Completely different bike. I cannot imagine what its going to feel like with the RB and the 24d rake kit installed but if this bike handles and wheelies anymore than now I may need some depends.. If anyone is toying with S/R wheels and full ohlins for your base model just do it.. It is an instant reward..
