Ok, i am ready to make some serious shopping therapy for my K8 orange/black K8.

Below i have a list of things i am interested to buy and i would like to buy as much as possible from the site sponsors

So here goes:

1. Brembo master Cylynder
2. Steel (cevlar maybe?) brake lines
3. HH brake pads (are there any better out there?)
4. Ceramic bearings
5. Dymag carbon wheels (full)
6. Hugger/undertail
7. new gauges that show at least 320km/h (340+ preferably) with NO miles indication
8. yellow box / speedo healer
9. double bubble (puig if the "puig" logo can be removed)
10. Acrapovic 4-2-1-2 carbon evolution (yes i am a patient man!)
11. bike stand (rear) that i can handle ALONE,SAFELY with no hussle!
12. aluminum radiator fan (is there a way to have 2 working together?)
13. frame plugs
14. helmet - Shoei x-11 solid black - small + chrome&pitch black visor

Thats all at the moment...please let me know if i missed anything.

Well, i havent got the bike yet, and i wasn't sure about the number of fans it uses. Here in Greece we get temperatures if 40-45 degrees C (~110 F)pretty regurarly in the summer.

Dealer here is talking about the end of June

But when it comes i want to have a lot of gifts for my new baby!

Any other thoughs guys?

Hey Vassilis...

Have you seen Titanium Force 4-2-1-2?
Have you seen PVM wheels? Carbon wheels are more expensive and I wouldn't suggest buying them for reasons we both know.
Forgot to add power commander + custom map
Brake pads... I suggest you Carbon lorraine SBK5+, way better than EBC HH
You will also need a switchable smart TRE or GPS.

take care

I am an Akrapovic kid, and i will wait for them to launch the evo 4-2-1-2

As for wheels...is there any other reason besides cost that you are thinking regarding full carbon dymags?

Is there a switchable GPS without the gear indicator? The one i saw has a gear indicator that i dont need :S

As for pc3...ill give oem ECU a chance to play with the Akra, if it doesnt work out i will try pc3 then!

Thanks for the input!

 

[DimSTriple]

You are welcome!

Akrapovic is ok but I believe Japan exhausts are even better + they are more affordable.

Reasons? Out great roads combined with the characteristics of carbon wheels when they flaw. Carbon wheels crack, all the others bend + I prefer Y10 design.

Nop, I'm afraid I havent's seen switchable GPS, that's why I suggest switchable smart-TRE

Finally, Power commander is a must for a full system, I suggest not to use the bike without changing the fuels.... too lean for the ECU to handle.

I thought the K8 was different?

 

[vasilis]

I hear you Dim...

You got a good point for Greek roads...but carbon is said to be at least 30% stronger than aluminum (if i am not mistaken)...But no matter how stronger or not, when it comes to bending, carbon will defenately break...

I checked PVM german site, it seems to me that they have most of their advanced rims for racing and not street use..

Has anyone tried full carbon or magnesium wheels on their busas? Feedback?!

How about switchable TRE, are you using something? Please let me know if you are happy with it!

[vasilis]

Rotts & John, thanks for the input on wheels and tre!

 

[DimSTriple]

All pvm alu wheels pass TuV, Magnesium passes TuV but because of the rigidity of TuV in Germany after 4-6 months they recall it. I use Y10 Mag wheels for more than 3 years now with no problem at all.

About TRE, yes I have a few friend using a Smart TRE with an On/Off switch
