I think 107 mph is close to 110 mph?

This is one fine looking bike!!!! I simply love it.

also saw a SGS in that hard candy gold with black flames and it's a good thing i didn't have my checkbook with me , i'd have been severely tempted !

The hard candy line is just a tad over the top for me. The metallic in this Laguna Orange really pops in the sun but it's a finer metallic. So far so good on the SE Mufflers with no tuner, runs great, pulls like a tractor when you roll it on. I may not even complete the usual Stage 1 with A/C and tuner on this one.

So just to be clear you are running the Black SE slip-ons only. Also that's the black exhaust shield set?

Is there any chance that FuelMoto will start this thread over so we can follow on the info as you find things?

A mod can go in and delete any non related comments if they wish. That would be better than FM re doing this thread.

I'm sure Fuel Moto took a break for the holiday and will be back posting soon with more tuning info. I'm curious when the other big name aftermarket guys will show up with performance and tuning stuff as well.
