Much Cleaner Now

Removed the HRC decal and the RC51 decal right above it

Mototeck flushmounts... the color is alot closer then it shows in the pic

Short stalks temporarily in the rear till I can gt a nice undertail

The stock bars till I can put on my puig and the satos risers (kind of pointless but its a clean shot so I put it in

Almost forgot the tank slapper even though you really cant see it

Re: Much Cleaner Now

I don't like the Woody stickers. And you should just buy an integrator for the rear lights, you'll need it when you get the Banzais

Cool. I'm wondering if Dan sold you the same clips that I have or those riser type bars?

Dying to get those jammies on and take it for a spin

Oh and as for the satos I cant do the whole bonzai thing b/c I need the pegs. The low mounts are not really that nice looking either and the high mounts unless I can find the peg kit (which seems not to be made anymore) I dont know what I am going to do in the exhaust area

Re: Much Cleaner Now

The low mounts make the most power but try this on for size, sportbikes shouldn't ride passengers Satos make the most power, you won't get the midrange from anything else.

Been hearing that DK hit the same numbers w/ the Banzai map recently so the whole LM/HM/Banzai "power issue" could be no more. Could be hearsay but he can confirm when u call him. Not really an issue for me cuz u'd have to pry my Banzai's outta my cold dead hands. And not really an issue for TGZ cuz he bought a '00.

TGZ, u can buy/use my peg relocators whenever u'd like. If I gotta pull 2-up duty I'll just use Freq's rig and let all that extra hp haul around the extra 100lbs. An RC shouldn't be subjected to that type of shame anyway.

Nice, clean ride! Now get a new credit card so you can max it out w/ pipes, PC3, undertail..........................

Re: Much Cleaner Now

I'll call him or try and get a hold of LDH if DK developed a new map. I'm using a DK map that was modified by Guru Lou, and it's the dog's ass. If he has a new one, it's on

I'd trust DK, G-Man, Guru Lou, or WStaab to make me a map, and nobody else

Here is my RC on the dyno (Banzais)

Harris CF, but it's actually made by NWS.

I forgot about that, I think Dan still carries the HM though And they have a footpeg mod so you can have both

Re: Much Cleaner Now

Dan does have the HM last I checked

I am still working on ways to keep the SecaII for a 2 up machine even though it wasnt the greatest for it at least it worked ok. But so far it doesnt seem to fit into the budget

JAMI6989 - thanks for the offer and when the time comes I might just be taking you up on that deal cause I really like the HM satos

Booth that sound clip is sweet

There is no better sound than hearing ur RC being flogged on the dyno. I had mine done 3 weeks ago and there wasn't a dip anywhere on the chart. Flawless. Having it redone for free by a friend next w/e since they at least have a Dynojet machine so I'm hoping for a real/accurate number this time.

TGZ, the peg relocators only took 10 min to put on and I'm mechanically challenged so u could probably do it in about 5 min. Fookers cost and arm and a leg and I'll probably never even use them. Can't believe someone with some quality machining skills hasn't made something better/cheaper yet. ****Hint**** They'd make a killing selling those. Speaking of making a killing, I'm off to buy an embroidery machine so I can cash in on the $20 HRC wristband craze. That guy's GOTTA roll in a Ferarri and drink Kristal with all the money he's making.
