I know my custom scheme might not be to everyone's taste, but I'm stoked with it. Such a cool little bike that turns heads. Plus I still have the factory kit to slap back on the bike for when I upgrade to a non lams bike

so what's next? Just enjoy it for what it is for the time being. I've got an aftermarket chip in it so I'll take it to a tuner to optimize my settings & voila!

Happy days!

I've got some O'Neil body armour that you can have if you want, size medium. I'm near Liverpool.

It was great for hot days, more protection than leathers and covered by a long sleeve T it was 1 million times cooler.

Sweet as! Can't turn down free armour!

I'm not from livo area but maybe I can pop down & pick it up on one of the public holidays coming up?

Otherwise I'm smashed for time between work, uni & the whinging missus ;);) (God I hope she doesn't spy on sau looking for my posts :P )

Got a bit tired of the rabbit ears look. So installed some bar end mirrors & changed out the grips while I was at it.

From an aesthetic point of view I prefer it, but I personally wouldn't recommend it for this kind of bike, field of view is not as good & the mirrors shake like buggery (more-so than the stock mirrors :P)

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
