Welcome mate, good choice of bike, if you're modifying the rear shock off a late model GSXR 600 is the one to get, K8 I think according to PB who sorted their long termer.

Welcome
Keep an eye on the AR11 thread section if you want to put loads of names to faces a little later in the year.

Was chatting to a bloke on a Gladius on the way into work the other day, looked lovely (the bike, not the bloke, well he was alright but you know what I mean, errr).
