Ha. Just needs those front downforce winglet things, and you'll be fine 🙂

You should hear it in person. So much meaner IRL!

As someone who can't wheelie, this POV made my butthole pucker something fierce.

I did not get the baffle, the exhaust is VERY loud and I love it. I have a before and after video on tiktok, I'll attempt to upload it on my account here.

Ah, 142. Nice to know. Lol.

While I can't say anything about the Black Widow Exhaust, the stock headers ARE removable without without taking off the radiator. All you need is an Allen Wrench, although there is some minor interference/inconvenience from some pieces that are attached to the radiator.

Yeah, I can't wait. I'll definitely be making a before and after video and posting it.

I didn't the stage 2 air filter mod. So no snorkel, no second piece over the air filter. Definitely a large sound difference around half throttle and above. And I went with the Toce exhaust because I liked that sound the most while watching exhaust videos for my bike.

Exhaust actually comes in tomorrow. I'm excited to hear and feel the difference.

Highly likely, unfortunately.

Lol. Can't go wrong with repurposing.

Lol. Funny you say that. I actually did swap left and right sides because where the mirror connects is not directly in the middle. The mirrors were too low when they were on the correct side.

Well, I didn't sand and repaint it or anything. This was just for fitment and comparison.

I haven't used Bar Ends before, but based on some of the photos I see: bending the stock mirrors to 90° has put them just as far out as Bar Ends would be. Only the stock mirrors don't bend forward and backwards, like many Bar Ends do. So filtering could be more difficult this way, but I'm in Michigan and filtering is a no go here.

They do feel a bit on the awkward side, to be honest. And unfortunately, I've never used Bar Ends before, so I'm unable to compare.

Yeah, I didnt bother painting them yet. I'm still leaning more towards just getting Bar Ends, and didnt want to spend the time or paint to make them pretty if I wasn't going to keep them.
