Well, finally got my beloved 2006 S2R1K back after some minor woes, 20,000km service and having the heads and casings blasted clean - and in the case of the casings, painted a nice grey - which looks similar in colour to the newer bikes.

So I thought I'd post her up.

I've got some little aftermarket front turn signals to add, and a crankcase breather, and that'll about do it, i reckon.

She's running with the standard Euro ECU, full Arrow system, open box and K&N filter. I've also fitted the FatDuc Manipulator. The bike is running very well, with almost zero popping - I only get this now sometimes when riding very hard - 3rd - 2nd gear downshifts.

I'm getting anything between 200 and 240km's per tank. I'm using standard gearing.

Other mods are DP tail with integrated, smoked LED Tail light and turn signals, open clutch as you can see - the Motowheels clutch cover and the Rizoma Belt Covers really go well together IMO.

There is a DP Steering damper, CRG LS mirrors and Rhino Moto bar ends. A clutch cylinder and sprocket cover from MPL tuning parts.

Some CF for the front and rear ends finish her off..

Cheers...

[NAKID]  Nice looking bike there.  What brand are those mirrors ?  How good are they?  It looks good.  I am thinking to get rid of my CRG mirrors next season.

Thanks, the mirrors are Rizoma Circuit 998's. Unfortunately, they don't make them anymore. These were a set I bought used from another member a while ago...

Wow. You've done such a nice job removing excess pieces and tidying up the bike, those stock turn signals look HUGEMONGOUS!

Looks gorgeous and mean. Very nice.    waytogo

NOTHING. that's a beautiful bike. the white on red with white rims.. wow. ok maybe get rid of the udder. how about midpipe with hi double sided exhausts in CF.
but the exbox would flow better with the engine sump sitting so low and the low hanging oil cooler...
dang now i understand your headache.

Looks like you dropped the front just enough to get the clip-ons above the top yoke - is that right?

How's the handling now - highway and twisties...? Any clearance issues with the oil cooler?

Thx...

It handles nicely. I actually had it dropped much more than that with the old clip-ons. The rear is lowered to compensate for it.

Ok - thanks - you mean u have the rear ride height at it's lowest possible based on the stock rod, or did you do something more? I have mine up in the rear about 3 threads now. Front is stock.
