The stock pads suck. ZTL2 with Lyndall's or EBC HH's and I think you'd at least be able to tolerate them.

Thats the truth. The stock pads are pretty bad. I'm running Lyndall gold + right now. They feel pretty good.

dude that state SUCKS... seriously... especially where he is... the western half has some rolling hills... but the eastern is flat as fuck. it drives me insane anytime I'm there...
I gotta give Cutty and Comonboys props though... no way in hell I'd own a bike there (if for some god forsaken reason I lived there) it'd be such a complete waste for me... it'd be like having a hot ass wife who loves to fuck but you only get to see her once or twice a year. |

Air intakes look like a chicken's folded wings.

![]() ![]() They are NOT air intakes. The ram air duct is centered between the forks and goes up through the airbox (which is where the gas tank is on a Jap bike) and it is ineffective at speeds under 80 mph. Mine is never effective, as I removed my inner airbox cover, so it will never pressurize at any speed. The pods have 2 purposes. 1. direct air over the parallel mounted radiators (one on each side) 2. Act as frame sliders. They will take the hit when the bike drops, saving the frame. and they are cheap to replace at ~$55/each. here is a pic of what is under the pod. ![]() |
