I've had the bike a month and I've managed to do 6k miles communting to work :)

I'm amazed at how easy it is to work on and soo much better than my old pan and ZX7RR ninja.

I've fitted

Rear OEM rear wheel bumper/ splash gaurd - no benfit but I like the look
Mud slinger front and back - new style - bloody effective
Cymarc (sp?) pannier spreader - seems to do a job, not sure really
Cymarc (sp?) crud catcher - great idea, redundant due to mudslinger
H&B Bottom and top crash bars - look great hopefully not needed for a while
Vario panniers and top box with vario bags - complete the look, great for work
Rear number plate spalsh gaurd thing - not sure of effectiveness yet
Touratech rear bag under the top box - handy for bits and bobs
Touratech hand gaurd extensions - really good, effective
Cockpit cover - looks ok, still has the scottish flag on from Stevie
Expandable tank bag - great for general rubbish
headlight cover - not really needed, lloks ok though
oil cooler cover - looks alright
Grip puppies - best thing fitted, changed the feel of the bike
Bar risers - same as above, changed the bike
Ted's bike cover - lost in shed soon to be fitted

All mostly second hand and have changed the bike into something I look forward to ride.

I really want to fit Lennie's 9 degree sprockets as I've heard great reviews about how it changes the feel of the bike then HID's and aux lights and a cockpit tidy surround thing.

I love this bike, best thing I've bought in years :D
 
6000 miles in a month:eek: I'm impressed:bow:bow Where do you commute to?
 
Nutty I do North Norfolk to Bury St Edmunds/ Ipswich depending on the needs and occasionally to Derby.

Add in my weekends and evening jaunts and I've racked up a shocking amount of miles, it will settle down in a few months as i'm trying for a job locally.

I've done a bit more farkling today, :)

Instead of the sprockets have you considered a remap?

Sort the standard 'Eco' fuelling and it's sure to ride much better.
