    which are the best chain adjusters for the new fireblade love the gilles ones but they dont do silver ,do you think black would look right on a silver swinging arm NOT SURE? yes ok on a black swingin arm. V__7300.jpg

    Lightech do some very nice ones as well, I had Gilles on my 10 HRC but as mentioned they were black and suited it perfectly, now I have the silver swingarm I am after the same as you :)

    Lovely bike BTW :)

    No mods at all fitted fine it does touch the fairing but only slightly and I had no issue refitting the fairing,

    very nice jamie did u discard of plastic cover on the other side absolute rubbish from honda?or did u fit gb cover straight over top of it.to be fair black wheels would not look right on your repsol plus new style wheels from honda look so well any way/are you thinking of putting a power commander on as no maps out yet for flash ecu

    Nice bike mate. I got silver looking Gilles chain adjusters on my 06 with a black swing arm but that was only because I didn't think I would see the markings properly using black adjusters. I personally think the Gilles are the best so I stomached the difference in colour.
    Give Andy a shout at Demon Tweeks and I'm sure he can help you out

    I will but was going to see what its like without for a bit while I run it in, thought it would be good to see on the Dyno a before and after :)

    I have a custom map from the HRC so will see if that's close as well

    Goog wish list, i love my BST ! And my full ohlins too , but try BERINGER brakes, i had brembo M4 , then HPK and now Beringer caliper + MC and it better than these brembo, to have more than bringer you have to take the p4 32/36 brembo but they 're racing caliper without road pads !

    Humpf ....
