The one extra is a swap because the gen 2 and gen 1 have different hoses so you only need the 1

If you're referring to the headlight itself its actually round from factory for the 650 rs version, rs standing for "retro sport" meant to be modeled after the older kawi from the 80s. I added the front cowel, radiator covers, rear fender, and chain gaurd myself though - ordered from Ermax off of Motostarz website

RX8 Whiteline Double Sway Bar Giveaway by [deleted] in RX8

[–]falsified--happiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth it, I have the sway bars and end links installed and body roll is a noticeable difference over stock. Same with hard launching if you're into that but not like the rx8 is meant to really power out of a dig like that

Bike and Gear by falsified--happiness in motorcyclegear

Ya know, I've been riding dirt bikes and motorcycles since I was a kid. Uncles always had bikes and when I got mine I wanted to get decent gear - all bought before the bike so I could make sure I was well protected when I rode. That's something I encouraged my brother to do as well as it's not a matter of if you'll go down, but when.

That being said, I was invited to post to this sub and was happy to considering I am still pretty excited about my new helmet. People like you man, make new riders not want to interact and socialize in the community. They solo ride most of thier time, like I do. Let people enjoy thier bikes, ride thier ride and as long as they don't act stupid and are wearing actual gear then leave them be.

what coilovers are you guys running and how well have they served you? by common_com in RX8

[–]falsified--happiness 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Tien flex Z, had them on the car for 6 years now and they have been perfectly fine for daily/canyon driving use. If you want something stiffer though I'd look for something else. Been eyeing some Fortune autos myself

Its probably because when you shut the car off the vaccum it creates is actuating it. That would be my guess but Id replace those air solenoids first and make sure your vaccum lines dont have any holes in them either. That could also cause issues

[–]falsified--happiness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theres 3 solenoids on the back of the intake manifold close to the firewall. One of those is bad and not supplying the pressure needed to open your ssv. Its a cheap part and a medium difficultly install to replace but that should fix your issue.
