yes it is GCC after scuffing my tank on my 05 model i thought i would go for the bigger one knee protection should be better i recon

i reckon that tank protector looks great!

looks hot!

if you want grip you could still put the techspec stuff over the top too.

I thought the protector looked too much until you see it with the black tail, then it kind of works

Good to see someone else on this forum has the RaceFit Growler also now & gets to hear that awesome note it puts out

Thats a damn nice bike there .....i'm jealous

that's one of hottest bugs. how much is it better than the crim

most of people think that the crim feels most powerful out of the rest. just wondering what you think.

it feels alot better too ride but then everthing thats new feels good hey.i have only done 137klm on it so far only the ride home hasnt even used the first tank yet so give me a little while if it ever stops raining and ill keep the feedback coming.

i recon the slipper clutch and the KIMS i recon it may feel abit sluggish but with a few mods i recon it'll run rings around the older models time will tell hey now that its making the right sounds i maybe able to hear it

nice pipe

I had a ride of an 08 and compared to the 04 and 06 (i owned and test rode), the 08 was easily the quickest. It was so smooth and just kept pulling non stop!!!

I have never felt the KIMS kick in on mine, even when the back end has stepped out in a corner. I'm not even sure what it would feel like when it does, but I don't think it should make the bike feel sluggish. Mine certainly doesn't anyway I do love the slipper clutch though, clutchless gear shifts give me a woody

The only thing i have found that I don't like, is throttle response at low speed low in the rev range. On mine it's real jerky and touchy. It's ok in a straight line but going round a tight roundabout in first can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, especially in the wet. Maybe I just need to pull a finger out and get a PCIII, K&N and a custom map

Oh, and it stalls when it's cold
