    Gen3 Titanium bolts and nuts addiction

    These are for the dog bones. They are a little long but otherwise fit perfectly. Going to cut some of the threads off.

    Gen3 Titanium bolts and nuts addiction

    Couldn't believe how tight those bolts were. Took ALOT of effort to remove even with a 1/2 in torque wrench. Hopefully tomorrow I will have the titanium lowering link bolts/nuts that I'm not sure will fit :-)

    Fear of getting flashed

    Same boat as you. Low speed 1st gear turns that require minimal throttle are very jerky. Luckily the turns I've encountered didn't have the typical loose gravel or other small debris....... Can't imagine if I had to ride this tune in an offroad area or typical rural intersections. B mode smooths...

    Cowl / hump cutout

    Don't know if anyone has this problem but it always takes me a bit of finagleing to get the hump locked it. Adding the taper isn't as buttery smooth as the Gen1 hump engagement but it is an improvement.

    Apology to Gen 3's first gear

    I went back to the factory kickstand because it is easy to find and sticks out further so it has more leverage against the lean of the motorcycle. I tend to park in soft terrain and the Brocks stand while nice and light has very little angle and also smacks the hell out of the factory exhaust...

    Gen 3 factory muffler mod

    Very interesting! The butt dyno doesn't mean much. Honestly even when I did full exhaust I couldn't FEEL the difference but I definitely heard it.

    Cowl / hump cutout

    Didn't gain much. Could have gone even more but want it to still be strong. Can fit a pair of gloves easily. I can almost shove a standard Jansport backpack in there but it takes a few minutes trying to roll it and shove it.

    Seat for Gen 3

    Bought another seat to do this. Not sure how wide or deep I should have gone but we will see. I also shaved a 1/4 inch off as well. Haven't had a chance to ride it yet.

    Seat for Gen 3

    I got 2.3lbs for both. For the comfort seat with my custom gel insert I got 4.5lbs and it isn't that much better :-( . The regular comfort seat to ME feels worse than the factory seat. It looks so so so much better than factory and I love the stitching and the side grip.

    Motor fix has carbon winglets finally

    I think It looks pretty cool. Just sucks you will know longer have DRL's, blinker and only a tiny headlight with a Kanji symbol over it. I mean for anyone who only rides during the day and can manage not getting pulled for the blinker issue, have at it. I do agree that this should absolutely be...

    Gen3 Titanium bolts and nuts addiction

    I'll definitely be putting titanium to the test. BST sprocket carrier hardware vs the titanium counterpart. As well as bolts for the kickstand.

    What did you do to your Gen 3 today?

    The gods of weight reduction have blessed me today. Thanks to Skip Chance for the work on the rear rotor! My factory rotor has 700 miles and weighs 2.5lbs. The other rotor that's modified has 1,000 miles and now weighs 1.6lbs. Total weight of brand new rear tire with all hardware attached is...

    Brock's penta carbon or M4 exhaust

    I'm curious where I would stand. Haven't raced it yet. Currently running 17/42. I plan on running my friend with a 2016 Zx14. He only has a tune as far as I know but probably still is in the 190 range where I'm at best 185hp based on others dynographs. Only reason for my gearing was to get just...

    Gen3 Titanium bolts and nuts addiction

    I use aluminum to hold plastic fairings. Bought them in a kit on ebay. Can also find nylon washers at home depot. Just have be careful how much you tighten them. I also use nylon for areas like the tail section. Honestly the tail in some spots has alot of tension and seems to hold itself. Could...
