    Change the standard can as that weighs 7.8KG (I've weighed mine) Then add a after market, my R77 weights 2.4Kg. Then you have nearly 5 KGs of weight to play with. Everything aftermarket ie rearsets weighs less than anything Honda produce!

    I'm not concerned with weight makes no difference to me really just makes me laugh how Honda use shit materials and build an exhaust that's so heavy it baffles me! But every product I've added improves the bike be it protection or performance. The weight thing is a distant second !

    There are not enough superlatives to describe the absolute necessity of fitting gas turbines to motorcycles.

    That's the awesomnest (;)) scooter I've ever seen.

    So, when I fit some turbines to my new baby (6 days and counting !!!) I'm guessing that I'd have to tell the insurance company about them?

    Mate you won't need turbines with that bike, they come with one as standard! :)
