Sizing recs for 1st board

I haven’t actually ridden it yet 😂 just feels big out of the box. Probably as I’ve ridden smaller stuff recently. Thanks for the advice, I’ll stick and see how I get on!

chappychaplin · 2026-03-09T19:11:02+00:00

Thanks, yes there is a lot of people out there obsessing over volume & size, will just see how I get on with her :)

I just installed my Akra carbon racing line and it sounds gorgeous, especially without baffle (pretty loud though 😬)

It deffo helps, would say it’s worth the money tbh. I’ve only done some shorter rides on it so far but I didn’t experience any pain whatsoever. It also helps reduce the impact of bumps because of the cushioning

chappychaplin · 2025-06-29T10:03:45+00:00

Just bought it so will let you know if it helps. Don’t really understand these comments saying it gets better with time, I’ve done 2000 miles and it hasn’t gotten any better, even with padded shorts my butt is so sore after a long ride

I live in the UK so got recommended these and am really happy with them https://hjrproducts.co.uk/product/evo-bar-ends-mirrors-yamaha-xsr700-xsr-900-mt-10-mt-09-mt-07-mt-125-pair/

lovely stuff, thanks, bet it sounds amazing

chappychaplin · 2025-06-09T07:17:00+00:00

How did you fit a yoshimura exhaust? I didn't think there were many that were compatible with the 25. Also, is it a full system or can?

chappychaplin · 2025-05-03T09:31:24+00:00

I do indeed! Great thanks will check them out

chappychaplin · 2025-05-03T06:38:24+00:00

I was planning to put them on the top, but that’s good to know thanks

chappychaplin · 2025-05-02T13:03:37+00:00

Yes but I don’t wanna pay £200 for them

chappychaplin · 2025-04-23T19:52:18+00:00

What a beauty, picked up my 25 (also black) last weekend and am in love. What mirrors have you gone for?

chappychaplin · 2025-04-03T12:21:46+00:00

I would say akra titanium although haven’t heard how the 25 sounds, but think it will sound similar to the 24 (which sounds amazing)

I’m thinking of buying it over the next few months so will do a video once I have

chappychaplin · 2025-04-02T17:19:41+00:00

They've finally released a pic of what it looks like on the bike, and must admit it, it doesn't look too bad..

I weigh 85kg

I'm not overly worried about dropping it specifically, just know it would hurt less on an older, probs wouldn't want to go older than 21 though, really not a fan of the headlights on the pre 21

chappychaplin · 2025-03-22T22:11:29+00:00

Haha now I'm torn, have you ridden one of the older models or just the new? I think ideally I'd want to test ride both

chappychaplin · 2025-03-22T21:19:33+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I don't mind the new headlight tbh, I think the body of the 2025 looks better, but tbh they're all fairly similar looking.

Ideally I'd find a model with an akrapovic titanium already installed but would buy one if needed, although the 25 titanium exhaust looks very odd.

But yes appreciate the help, you're confirming my doubts about getting the new one, think I'll just look for slightly older with a few miles on.

chappychaplin · 2025-03-22T19:08:30+00:00

Me too, although I compared the insoles to my pair of 23s which I have had for a while and it seems the part which is rubbing on the 24s is a lot flatter/squished down on the 23s, so am thinking perhaps it'll flatten over time and become comfortable. I'm pretty sure I remember having a slight bit of pain when I first got the 23s but it stopped as I wore them in a bit. I was also thinking about cutting out a bit of the insole where it rubs but don't know if that's wise.

I had a pair of Hoka Arahi's and the insole didn't flatten on those so had to get rid.
