These JMV goodies will be the next project I think.
What do you think about these?

Im liking that screen and belly pan !!

Belly pan is priced under 200€ unpainted.
I will paint it myself in matt black. Same color as the engine and the muffler.

Took her out for 100 km. First I changed the tyre pressure to 2,3 bar in front and 2,7 bar in the back.
Now the Dunflops give me more confidence.
Next time I am going to try 2,1and 2,5.
Before the next ride I will change the setting of the fork. More preload.

By the way, this was my first ride in dry conditions.

Went saturday for a ride from about 120 kms. Air temperature 10°C, dry conditions. Dunlops under prescripted pressure 2,5 and 2,9 felt good. I think in warmer conditions those tyres are ok and aren't a 'flop'.

I just changed the pressure to 2.1 front and 2.5 rear.
Now i have to wait for dry roads to test.
Changed te preload too. 5 rings visible.

And I did this ............................

I took a very fine file and made "Nissin" visible.

Sorry for the bad picture, you should see a device to check out if the rear wheel is in line with the chain.

I really like your black painted muffler, Dzjiepie! Great idea!

(PS : I had to copy and paste your name. Hopefully I don't need to pronounce it! lol)

Excellent mod painting your muffler flat high temp black!
BTW are you able to post pictures of your niner before and after the muffler mod? I mean a full niner picture...

Also, did you had to prime and bake the muffler to get it cured?
Did you need to use new gaskets for reassemble?

Cheers,
