How did you plasti dip it? Like spray can it or the regular stuff? Looks pretty clean and glossy.

I'm looking on Ebay. Anywhere else?

What year shock fits on the bike? I'd be willing to give a CBR600 shock a try, it's by far much cheaper than a used Tuono shock (Cheapest I found was like $400)

Runs just fine on 2

How did you get the bike to work with only one DB Killer? I removed the top one from my bike and it freaked out, it even gave me a check engine light.

Sucks to hear, but good to know that it didn't end up too bad. That's probably the reason to why I got the chrome version or the regular version, I knew if something chipped on the black it would be a pain. I love how the L3X sounds on my bike, but I don't run it without the DB Killers, it...

not sure about the others, but around here the roads are terrible and potholes every where. This would add a little cushion to my ride, and slightly bigger stand against potholes. Thanks everyone for the comparisons and opinions!

Went out for a 120km ride, halfway on the return, my visor looked like it had a lot of dust on it, and figured it was probably dirt. Turns out, it was volcanic ash from an erupting volcano nearby. Had to power wash the entire bike to remove it.

I moved up form a CB500, and that bike had it but in all gears. This one was very smooth up until a couple of weeks ago. A friend who has one told me that the dealer told him to avoid it to keep a little throttle in when shifting or to to close it completely. He didn't remember which
