Re: Is there a low mounted GP/ stumpy exhaust for curvy SV?

Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100
So, since finishing the exhaust I’ve done very little else! It’s been a hectic last few months and a pricey one too! As funds are still too short to purchase any of the more important components... |

Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100

Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100
I only bought the welder a few months back and ordered a few disposables with it at the time because I hadn’t sorted a larger bottle yet. Will be getting sorted soon enough! |

Re: What's the current hotness in aftermarket clocks for a curvy?
I love my koso, was an easy install and I've never had a problem. The GPS add-on is a must when upgrading the front end, makes everything hassle free :) https://i.imgur.com/OPP3i9il.jpg |
