Okay, so I got a smart turn system module a while back and just got around to installing it. It cancels your turn signals after lane changes and turns and has a timeout feature. Install was a little bit of a pain,but not too difficult (wires are under the air cleaner so lots of stuff to move and...
I have always been able to get about 44 mpg even with extensive mods, but lately my MPG has dropped to about 38 mpg. Might have been the cooler weather. I have a very heavy throttle hand, but did before also.
Think I paid $130 for front and rear, $7 for a one man brake bleeder kit and a bottle of synthetic dot 4 brake fluid. I also put new pads on at the same time even though mine weren't too worn. Great investment and mod IMO. Braking is immensely better!
Been trying to figure out which tires to go with, just looked up pricing on q3s and they are reasonable (about 270) for a set. my tires just passed last inspection, but have inspection in September. Do not want to go all summer on the old ones so i may do this in a week or so. I was also looking...
+1 I upgraded last year to stainless lines, new pads and changed fluid and it's night and day. Very little pressure needed, whereas before I was applying lots of pressure.
Same, love the decel sound with my viper can. It's not excessive and I have to downshift pretty hard to get popping.

I can't get to it tonight, but can try tomorrow. I don't have it on my surface pro, but I think I have it on my old laptop (my son uses it). Worst case I pull it from my pc5 and load it onto my surface pro. I have the pc5 app on my phone. So send me your email addy and I'll get the map to you as...
If you're somewhat mechanically inclined ,as you seem to be it's not overly difficult. I didn't have to degree my cams since I bought them second hand from Marthy so they were machined and ready to install. Use green loctite when reinstalling cam gear bolts. Trust me on this. I didn't loctite...
Cam mod is the best power mod hands down! I only have FZ6 intake cam since I had a major mishap after installing the cams. Doesn't seem any different power wise then it did with FZ6 intake and exhaust cams. Cams, exhaust, airbox, pc5 have made this a different bike.
Good job on the mods so far. I also installed a gear indicator (healtech) and even instructions were almost non-existent. I basically use it just for a quick check when I'm up in 5th or 6th. Yours looks similar to mine as well. I like my HID headlight setup, but if I didn't already have it I'd...
Extend the bars further out so that the the tip of the bar (opposite the grips) in almost flush with the clamp and rotate the controls. I managed to find a location that cleared the tank and fairing (I also have woodcraft 1.5" risers and bike lowered around 1.75". With the bars in that far...
Agree about the Roadsmart tires, mine came with them and although I am no juggernaut (5,600 miles I am still on the original tires) the tires wear and perform admirably. I am replacing with Roadsmart 3's over the offseason or sooner if they don't pass inspection.
Had to raise mine 1.75 inches so they would sit flush. Remember to relocate your horn or it will bottom out constantly. I don't think I torqued mine, tight is tight. I'm sure there's a spec, but I just made sure they were tight and rechecked multiple times, have had the clipons for around 4 years.
