Isn't there a list for real bikes too?

Well, they do ask "has your vehicle been modified in any way?". If you don't mention your bike was de-catted it could be an easy way out for the insurance company to reject your claims. Just saying...

It's a nice little bike but it won't sell here, too small for SA ego's, I predict Suzuki dropping it from the local lineup within the next year or two. Also interesting to see the Fireblade beating the GSX-R, maybe it's because it is the SP version, but most publications rate the GSX-R way...

What is the average life expectancy of a CAT on a bike? I have yet to hear of one that clogged. Unlike DPF filters on modern diesel cars...

Dunno, but I remember a time when Repsol Honda also had a 3 bike team. I think Dovi was part of it back then. Maybe it's just the cost that generally limits teams to 2 bikes.

Jy ry te stadig, die vibes raak weer weg bo 6000rpm  :biggrin:

And you can see the suspension travel by the rust level!  :imaposer: Mind you, still seems stronger than a 1200LC's...

Nice bike, but you have to question the need for TC electronics on a bike with 70hp. I mean, really? In my opinion it just adds unnecessary cost and complication which puts the bike out of reach of people who could otherwise afford it. But I guess it's just the new big thing. In a few year's...

Cool, that is a very good explanation, thanks!  ;)

Do you realize the Fazer is lighter and more powerful than a Tiger?  :patch:

Congrats on the new bike!  :thumleft: I would love to hear your thoughts on the performance compared to your Versys as I though my next upgrade would probably be something like a Tiger XRx. I recall my Yamaha Fazer 600 easily outrunning my brother's 800XC in a straight line once the little...
