All 650's What mods do you have in mind for the next riding season and why?

[stevelululu]

i'm still going for the SC Twin CR-T for sure,road legal with cat and db killer for sure the best sounding system in my opinion(i dont want to gamble if the police having a good day or not,ticket and insp B not cheap)

Ain't got no such problems in Canada

Ain't got no such problems in Canada

here if they think its to loud,you get a ticket and you only get your bike documents back after inspection B,but the CR-T make enough sound tbh

I got mine from motostarz.ca > cheaper than anyone else

I’ve used motostarz for parts. Good place for parts, and the guys there are pretty cool as well. I’ll always support a place with good customer service, and the folks there are really good.

Are you from Toronto?

No, just an hour away though.

 

[baloo2650]

The hype (including myself) was all about the SC cans and now all of a suddent everyone going back to the Akra haha. I guess we all realized Akra best maintains the OEM lines of the bike

Yeah, I just put one on my ‘18 cb, it’s a nice system.

I'm upgrading my rider and passenger seats with the gold gel insert and custom seat covers from Luimoto for next season!

I also decided to spend a little extra for some custom embroidery in the passenger seat, which is gonna look awesome!

 

[JH09]

also thinking about a gel insert for the main seat, maybe add an inch or 2 for legroom and overall butt comfort...

So how's that work with the install? I imagine they email you a shipping label and you ship them your seat for install? What was the turnaround for you like?

I got in touch with their design department, told them what I wanted and they gave me a rendering. I paid a deposit so they could get started on my seat covers. I shipped my seats to Luimoto in British Columbia so they could do the gold gel insert installation. By the time that was done, the embroidery was nearly finished. Afterwards, they installed my new custom seat covers and sent me a couple of pictures. Once I paid the remaining balance they shipped my seats back to me. The turn around time for my custom order was about 2-3 weeks but without the embroidery it would have been a lot quicker. You could save yourself some money and time doing the installation yourself and just ordering the seat covers, but they know what they are doing better than I do, so I just let the professionals do it for me!

Wise choice ;-)

I have spent many an hour wondering whether to get the STS brake module or not? Let us know what you think of it.
