Re: Another new bike thread - Versys
well the bike looked like this when it came home
with a few "choice" modifications, it currently looks like this shot of the Ermax Hugger and shiny Scorpion (and some opinion splitting rim tape) This thing is loud! Heated grips & KTM handguards upfront The pipe has made a big difference to the character of the engine, it chops about a foot off the pipe and gets rid of the Cat. Have only tried it with baffle out (which I should maybe replace before I find myself £30 lighter!) Last edited by rob13; 29-03-09 at 09:40 PM. |

Re: Another new bike thread - Versys
Nice bike, I think the green sets it off just right.
A guy at work did have a FJR1300 but now rides one of these. Not had a change to speak to him as we are on different shifts. Ch00

Looking good Rob, how does the firing order sound compared to the V-twin?

Re: Another new bike thread - Versys
yeah, thats one thing Im disappointed with. Its done just over 5k now but I have seen some heavy wear on those guards. I didnt think fake Carbon would look that good as it has the dimpled effect on the edge but I might have to resort to something like that to protect them.
