Has anybody received theirs yet? Mine’s coming this week. Figured we could start a thread for owners. Something we could use as a informative thread for setup and aftermarket parts etc.
So far I’ve got the following ready to slap on it:
Acerbis full plastic kit
Motocal Custom Graphics
Different grip combos
Hour meter
TM lower chain guide
Twin Air radiator sleeves
Factory Connection Radiator braces
Renthal 13t front sprocket and 49T rear
DID Gold chain
Steering Stabilizer
I’m sure there are a few more nic nacs I’m forgetting too. I’m not getting anything performance wise like an exhaust because I’d like to wait to see some tests before purchasing one. Although I think I may go ahead and throw the 1 tooth bigger rear sprocket on from the get go. I also have my suspension guy lined up for a work over soon as I break it in and get a feel for the stock setup as a base line.

The Shop
Could any new owners post up service intervals from the owners manual?
Rode it in the medium mode for awhile and then switched it to aggressive map and wow it really awoke the beast! Definitely can feel the week spot in the power curve at low end but if you ride it high in the Rpms you would never feel it. The motor just won’t stop
pulling uptop either!
I have a vortex ecu on the way and working on getting exhaust.
Pit Row
The problem is the left brace. The DLC (Data Link Connector) bracket hits the brace and the brace also shoved in on the upper outer radiator hose. All you have to do is take a pair of channel locks and slightly squeeze the DLC bracket in a little bit. Then notch about a 1” piece out of the upper lip of the brace. Fits like and glove and you don’t have to wait 2 months.
