Don't mind the wet and cold its salted roads I refused to ride on, ruined too many bikes in the past when I didn't have a choice, but then again with a choice I will stick to dry and warm too ![]() |

As for running in, I've got about 800 miles on mine and I'm using up to about 8.5k revs in short bursts but only after it's properly warmed up for 20-30 minutes. The "orange line" on the rev counter starts at 7k but once up to 50degrees it moves to 9.5k. One thing worth keeping an eye on - I fitted an Evotech oil cooler guard and even with 600 miles on before I fitted it, the oil cooler was full of road crud. I know MotoNik has also had the same issue. Worth cleaning it out regularly I think. Better pic of mine ![]()

The mirrors are from Strada 7 Racing. To hold the brake/clutch reservoirs in place I used 7xM8 washers stacked on top of each other and dropped the OEM bolt through them.
I liked the fact that you can see every thing behind me, but it didn't take long until I got pi$$ed off because I couldn't filter as quickly as I liked due to the proximity of those pesky car wing mirrors - so I put the OEM ones back on, for now. ![]() ![]() |

I was looking at a spacer solution too, the left bolt will be no problem to replace but the right is an opposite thread, i have a set of Oberon mirrors that I may put on to see how it looks, but they are a pain to adjust and a slight knock sets them out again. As my Garage is the only access to the rear garden the NS gets knocked a bit. Also was wondering about the affect of removing the OEM bar ends.
