(Shamelessly reposting this since I couldn't figure out who to PM to ask to have my old thread moved)
I've been meaning to post a thread about this for a while and haven't quite gotten some nice shiny photos of it yet, but I wanted to at least share my bike a bit considering how many shiny things I've thrown at it.
I picked up a 2013 Street Triple earlier this year, basically like new with only 500 miles on it. I decided I wanted to do something interesting with it.
It started out with "oh, let's make this a bit nicer," and wound up with being "oh, let's make something that will let me carve up the track and look comfortable while doing it."
So here it is:
My goal (for now at least) was to make something incredibly special, yet not scream "I've modified this a bunch."
So the most prominent thing of course is that I have a 675R front end with Ohlins forks and brakes with a TTX Mk2 rear shock. This is why I've taken to calling it the RS, plus it makes me sound cooler than I really am.
Some detail shots:
It's a hoot on the track too. I was still getting comfortable so was barely faster on this than I am on my 250, but I'll pick up the pace I'm sure!
My attempt at a complete mod list...
