How hard was it to take off all the decals.. I'm looking at probably getting one. But like you not a real fan off the decals

It's not hard at all. Just apply heat from a heat gun or hair dryer for a few seconds and peel off slowly.

They have cup style adaptors for your bar end mirrors. Gap won't be as big between your bar and mirror ends. I just changed from what u got to cup style. Looks a bit more pro. They were 16 bucks on Amazon. Love the sound of your bike. I'm to much of a sissy to cut out Breadbox...😁

I sold my 2009 Ninja 650 in 2014 and missed it every day. Basic riding skills came back quickly... low speed stuff and emergency braking still isn't there for me. Ride safe, man. Awesome bike!

I don't find it to be overly loud. One of the reason I did this was because I know a full exhaust system would be really loud. My bike is still not as loud as some friends that have full systems. I didn't want it to be obnoxious.

I have not replaced it but I did flip the rear rubber pieces after seeing it done on another KZfaq video. It is a noticeable difference. I don't have any complaints about the seat but do know there are more comfortable ones out there. Might even consider buying gel material and insert it myself.

@rich075

@@Mike10001977 ok so the torque of the 900 does make the front wheel lift up, even in Rain mode or so I've experienced. It does not lift up much and the KTRC does kick in at those times. I have ridden in Sports mode before but never gave it full throttle. I mostly rode in Rain or Road mode. You can definitely feel the difference between the modes. Whatever bike you decide to get, just remember that throttle control is everything.

Seems like you do the same like me: Whilst approaching an intersection in gear 3 (or 4..5..), you use the clutch and brake/shift down to gear 1. I even do the same with driving a (stick) car. Most (experienced?) riders 'blip' themselves down to 1. How come you do it the 'infamous' way by not rev-matching?
@rich075

I'm still trying to master rev matching and seldom engine brake. If I do engine brake, it's because I messed up doing the rev matching lol. But, I'll do perfect rev matching about 5x in a row and then mess it up on the 6th. I'm much better at it then I was a month ago though.
