..great purchase.!Ticketyman wrote:Pictures to follow, now let the fettling begin. As it stands PC 111 with Yoshi Can and mid pipe, Stock gearing, stock suspension. I have already stiffened the whole thing up a bit for my riding style and weight. Questions, when going to a 17 front sprocket do you need to purchase one with the rubber damper or solid steel will do, is there extra noise vibration ? Question, obviously you sit more in this bike than on a 10R, the arse end feels low, any benefit in raising and what's everyone done. Question, do you guys run steering dampers? What sort ?
I know there's a few of you guys on here that have set these puppies up well, any and all info would be great.
Cheers
you will luv it (but then we all say that about our 12Rs)
I slung a front sprocket on...for easier take off more acceleration (and less top speed but who needs that these days with greeed cameras)
plus the obligatory speedo healer.
re the setup, I like mine fairly plush, so at just over80kg, I did not do much
got the pre-loads right plus jacked the back up a tad to sharpen the steering
and now its a long range missile (low fuel use too) thats easy to ride but still steers
..great bike !
) - reports a highway mileage figure of around 7l/100km (or about 34mpg in the old money). This figure of 7l/100km means a real-world range of about 260-270km. Around the burbs the mileage decreases to about 8-9l/100km (about 26-28mpg) - and a suburban range much closer to 220-240km.
