Yeh i must admit we said very nice things about your bike.

Well on that note, and seeing as this is a thread about my mods, i suppose i should tell people that i have just ordered Puig Carbon look Bellypan, Fork protectors, and fuel cap stickers.

Am waiting on Maxi Moto to get back to me re a Ermax carbon look Seat cowl.

"Carbon" Levers i ordered about 8 weeks ago are close to arriving!

Bike also goes to the Dyno tomorrow.

:Flash:

Maybe your gripping the bars too hard, or maybe a set of risers to bring the bars higher, and closer to you might help, sounds like you could be pushing on the bars a bit, if your hands are sore...

Just a thought.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too.

Been considering it myself, (Risers that is), I find myself sitting up with arms straight and I get a pain in my left shoulder. I tried sitting closer to the tank and bending my arms, but that just felt wrong.

I generally sit at the back of the seat, and lean forward with arms a bit bent and that's ok, but I always find myself ending up with straight arms again.

I've seen some "up and back" risers on here, have to go hunting for some I think.

:)
