    A lot of integrated tails are complete trash. Not visible more than 5ft away and then people throw tinted lenses on them and it's next to nothing during the daylight. The one I had on my CBR and the one I have on my grom are very noticeable

    Ti exhaust is pretty nice, I was leaning towards it but ended up with the carbon instead. I still need to buy sliders along with a bunch of other stuff.

    Yeah, it's going to hurt to drop that much on such a small amount of metal....

    I really like the sliders I have and plan to get because they have no logos.

    Finished my second oil change. No stripped threads this time haha

    Did it at 1,064 miles and switched to Motul 7100 10w40 synthetic oil.

    What do you normally run? It's only $13.49 a quart. If I'm going to be riding this thing every day to work I want to treat it right.

    Rotella or castrol. No way I'd be spending $40/oil change when you include a filter

    Understandable. I've thought about trying Rotella at some point.

    Got the fork and axle sliders installed today. They're from OES Accessories. I chose them just for the sake that they didn't have any logos or brand names etched into them. I like the clean look they have. Wanted the non-spool type, but the spools will make it easier whenever I decide to get a rear stand.

    Also picked up a throttle lock/cruise control mechanism called Omni-Cruise. Keeping at a constant speed for 35+ minutes gets annoying on the wrist, so we'll see how it does on my way to work tomorrow.

    Just finished riding for about 4 hours. My butt is sore now. New seat some day.

    Bike now has 1,600 miles on the dot.

    Well, it's been a month of ownership already. Registered and picked up the plates today.

    First part of video is stock sound, skip to 7:30 to hear what it sounds like after.

    Installed a set of BikeMaster heated grips about a week or two ago. Helps good enough to make it bearable down to 30 degrees. But my thumbs are frozen by the end of my commute to work. I think some handguards would be needed next...

    Eh, don't feel like adding all that. At least not this Winter. Heated gear costs add up quick...

    Be the same as a decent set of handguards and work better
