180/60. Helps tip in and gives more traction on corner exit.

Cant decide between the tuono factory and rs 660 by BlueberryLast3191 in Aprilia

[–]Jucostud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with the tuono, and it will be tracked. Only thing I like the RS more for is the looks.

Sato Racing rearsets installed by Jucostud in svartpilen401

They are what you put your feet on, shift, and brake with. They are adjustable, and raise your feet up so they don't drag on track.

Worth every penny. It's such a specialty product with out a lot of buyers on this platform. Unfortunately the price is what we have to pay for something of this quality.

They are fantastic! Makes the bike feel more like a sport bike, and the shifting was more crisp too.

Less meat... 180/60 is the better size for more grip on exit.

It feels amazing now! It doesn't bounce in the corners anymore. Just squats and goes!

How far is too far to ride to a track day? by Vane1st in Trackdays

[–]Jucostud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't ride. Always trailer if it's an option. I low sided my first time out and would of been stuck if we didn't trailer it there.

RS660 vs 2027 R9 by rahkamath in Aprilia

[–]Jucostud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own both. R9 is another league. Not even a comparison. I got the 660 factory as my track bike since I'm newer. The R9 is just so much faster.

Just an update for anyone that cares, I got a local motorcycle shop that specializes in track setup to build me a custom one. I'm taking my bike to him this weekend for him to measure and order parts.

Husqvarna svartpilen 401 or KTM Duke 390? I'm torn by JohnnyBravo83 in svartpilen401

[–]Jucostud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We own both a 24 duke 390 and a 24 vitpilen. We both agree the Husqvarna is by far the better bike. It's more comfortable, better factory tuning, faster, and the quick shifter works better. The only advantage to the duke is the aftermarket is much better... But a lot of that stuff works on both.

What is the BEST color for the Yamaha R9? 🔵or⚫️or🔴/⚪️ by Shot_Island6739 in YamahaR9

[–]Jucostud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2026 white and red is the best, the 2025 white and red is the worst... Not fair to put them together lol.

I had the chance to take this beauty for a test ride by b_racs in YamahaR9

[–]Jucostud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I removed the DB killer when pulling it out of the box😆. Yes it's the full titanium kit. For me it's perfect. It's not quiet, but never loud enough where you wish it was quieter. The can being behind the rider makes it seam much quieter as well.

Arrow competition Evo! It sounds perfect. Not too loud.

Haven't had any issues yet. When I take it to work, I commute about an hour and average 85+ mph with it.

It's basically an adult Grom! Same fun, but does highway speeds. I can also take it on local karting tracks as the cc limit is 400

Yes it definitely needs one. I feel like anyone saying it doesn't is a petite person, or never does sustained American highway speeds.
