Your bikes looking good. Any feed back on your Fuel pipe and the PR 4's.

Not done a lot to mine yet. Fitted R&G Bobbins and bar ends. Suzuki tank pad and thats it. Looking forward to getting my screen.

First service due. £140. After that done mods will start. Probley R&G tail tidy next.

Hi madjohn, My take on the PR4's first. I started riding when Dunlop TT100's were high tech and Jap bike standard tyres had a high nylon content so lasted forever but gave up on any thought of grip if rain was forecast for next week and as a result I have always been somewhat tentative in the wet. These have completely recalibrated my wet weather riding. Don't get me wrong I am not careering around grinding footrests through puddles but I have a level of confidence in the wet which I would not have believed possible and the feel and feedback both wet and dry is a revelation. I found the standard fitment tyres very wooden in feel and I ditched them after a couple of hundred miles. I have over 4,000 miles on the 4's and they are still not showing wear. Without doubt best money spent on the bike. Re Fuel exhaust, very well made, very reasonable price, great improvement to soundtrack whilst not being anti social with baffle in. If I were 30 years younger baffle would be in the bin, I would have a huge smile on my face and all non motorcyclists would think I was a ****, enough said.

Geoff.

Cheers for the update. Too tight to change my tyres at the moment but they will probley be on my shopping list at some point. I like your fuel pipe but i'm after the Yosh Alpha pipe. Hopeing to buy somtime early next year.

I picked up my screen and fitted it yesterday. No problems in fitting it. It's rock solid when riding the bike. A bit more noise thow. Wind blast is hitting me just below my visor. Looks good on the bike. Pleased with it. Only issue i have really is the price. £75 a little expensive for what it is but it is well made.

Madjohn.
