    My boss gave me an extra £500 this week as a bonus for working hard!

    £500 aint mega money when it comes to modding your bike, that's why i need to choose wisely.

    But what do I buy?

    My bike is a 2009, it already has hugger, tail tidy, rad guard, r77 carbon with a power commander.

    What next?

    Just concerned if they do because i already have a PC piggy backing on the injector loom, another lot of plugs would be nuts!

    HM QS isn't o the injector loom. I'm running a PC5 on my '13 blade and have the HM QS as well, 4 plugs onto the top of the coils(can't think of the correct name ;) ) and then one earthed somewhere and your up and running.... easy as, not only the best mod, but sounds great firing through the gears :) :)


    Or how about buying 500£ of beer and have us lot all come around :D :D

    I would love to do a track day but I'm worried I'll wreck my bike. I have zero track experience what so ever.

    Do many people use their road bike for track days?

    Yes, I've done about 10, all on a road bike. Last one I did was on a VFR 800, ride up there with the Mrs and a top box on the back, did the track day and rode home.

    Trailers and track fairing are for pussies
