Welcome to the forum Atomised Slider,

As Cloggy mentioned there are loads of things on the search engine.
If you can be more specific about the finer things you are looking for you will get some better info.

For me the finer things are correcting the speedo, smoothing out the power, good security and learning good basic maintenance.
If you want graphics Minimad is your fella,
Turning your bike into a usable road/track bike then Defynertia is your man.
Modding to death is Bonemans territory.
Turning your bike into an award winning naked ride three times, then talk to Wavex.
Modding on an unlimited supply of cash then talk to Hellgate lol.
You will defo find it here as we are fortunate to have lots of after market goodies available.
Take care,

Nelly

Welcome!

Well, not many tweak the engine itself here. There are intake mods, exhaust mods, gearing mods and the ever-present PCIII all related to performance. We're looking for the first person to swap out for the R6 intake, FI, airbox, ECU and CAM though! Are you that guy?

Well thanks for the big welcome guys ..
Questions will be forth coming when i get one and start to strip it out (Being a Motorbike mechanic) its what i do best .

Answer
Security aint a problem , Graphics aint a problem mate of mine runs a graphic buisiness usually get em for nowt.
Defynertia hope he dont mind 101 questions

Bonemans will get alot too if it is the engine mods or ne thing of interest he will also get 101 questions..

I hope these guys aint gonna regret you putting the names forward lol ..

Hellgate & Wavex might not get bugged too much as i like to be individual so the styling and finish will be unlike ne thin else ..
And as for aftermarket goodies got accounts via the shop with just about everyone of em i think so that aint a prob...

Just a heads up for everyone found out last month Micron have gone into receivership so dont go buying there cans as you may lose ya money and get no can

Answer
Ummm maybe i dunno doubt it as i usually go for the base lump and bore em out and would like to try water injection on my next rocket project a turbo maybe worth a look ..
Fi ummmmm not sure might just fit with a dyna tech fuel pump instead ..
Turbos need the fuel quicker so need it pushing out the tank rather than just dribbling..
We will see its all pie in the sky so far till i get one waiting to see what get cruched a bit making it a project worth while.....

See you on the black stuff....

Many thanks for the warm welcome
