Ummmmm.......errrrrrrrrr.......... popcorn       Huh?Huh?Huh??

Borrowed Pauls battery charger, dusted it off.......just about it i finnnke     coffee

Enufff of da blingy stuff for me Desmond Two Shoes, more into stock safety items these days. Found that stock exhausts don't attract extra attention from the constabulary.........    Police
Now I can ride it up the old road without having to look over my shoulders, nothing to worry about........  except....for a dirty old black ,salt encrusted Monster from you know where..    Grin

I rode it for the first time in 3 weeks this afternoon! Weather up here was too good to ignore!

Apart from that I've not done anything else to the 620 really.. decided not to sell it, did purchase some Leo Vince carbon cans from simca for it though.

High or Low?

Much nicer than the shiny staintunes IMHO.

Got my 14T sprocket from California Cycleworks. 5 days!

The bro and I put it on today. Rubbish weather and no time for a ride yet.

The 14T front and 40 rear combo will be interesting.

Sure did.

Much easier, quicker and smoother take off, more responsive in all gears, just all round nicer to ride.

Now revs at 4,000rpm at 100 kmph, up from 3,750.

Thanks mate! Something that I'd planned to do to my monster but never got round to doing it..

Going to open the box that the leo vince cans came in today and size them up. They're 2nd hand so I might have a small 'strip back clear coat and reapply clear' project ahead of me  Wink

I agree, a month on for me and I still am loving the change to 14T.

Pulling the old staintunes off the frame and trial fitting the Leo vinces! They didn't come with hangers (did get the wrap around part, mismatched but they both work) so just need to fab up a bracket similar to the staintune one to suit..
