    Exhaust rear pipe removal

    To clarify, they sent instructions and the instructions said to remove the rear outlet pipe you need to remove seat and tank and to do that you need to get hold of the factory service manual.

    Exhaust rear pipe removal

    Trying to remove the rear pipe section that fits to the rear of the engine block, got the main pipe section at the front off ok but the rear has so little space not sure if I need to remove the whole seat section or something else similar to get to the nuts holding the rear onto the engine...

    FTR MODS

    Did you add additional ceramic coating or are you referring to the standard ceramic shield that sits between the exhaust and the metal outer shield plates?

    Simply's FTR Mods

    Only used the Beeline on 3 rides so far with the longest ride being 2 hours but with limited use I am really liking it. I used to use my iPhone for navigation and it took a bit of getting used to the limited display but now I really like the limited distraction. Once you get used to using the...

    Simply's FTR Mods

    One of the first things I noticed about the FTR was how upright it sits on the stand. I already considered taking a few cm of the stand as I have felt nervous leaving it a couple of times now where the position it was in seemed almost completely upright and so maybe it would fall onto the non...

    Simply's FTR Mods

    I have found that the new rearset solved the issue I had with the pegs getting in the way of being able to get the kickstand down correctly, loads of space now. I am not sure about lock on the KS as a standard, but I don't have it on mine and can't remember a bike that I have owned with it :)

    Cold Stalls, Throttle Response Glitches, ECU mapping problems/differences

    Gilles rearsets install

    Passenger ones look nice and match the Giles well I think. I actually like the Giles non flip but as I purchased the flips felt the need to put them on.
