Here is the link to the product:

I purchased my setup directly from Brock's website.

Hey Shane! Im assuming you have not had any problems on the street with the carbon wheels... I remember a post a while ago about if it would be ok to run those as daily riders.

A tiny item, a Roaring Toyz gas cap:

Stuff like this brings small weight savings, around 8 oz. But every little bit adds up. I had a Vortex cap on my '07. It was really nice, but a screw-in cap. I figured I would try something different this time around.

Shane

Shane, How do you like that gas cap so far? My locking mechanism is starting to get pretty stiff on mine, and I was thinking about replacing it... My buddy who has an 06 had the same problem and bought the Vortex cap. I was thinking about getting one of those until I saw this. Which of the two would you recommend?

Thanks.

Well, I think the Vortex is made a bit better, but the RT cap is easier/quicker to remove/install since the Vortex cap is threaded. If you could get the quality of the Vortex, and the aviation-style cap of the RT, that would be the ultimate.

I am not sure there is much more to be done with the bike at this point...other than ride it!

There are some pics...and my best pass in the 1.5 mile is 206.8 mph (199.5 at the mile). But it looks like what it is...a 255 lb suited guy tucked in as best as his fat ass can!

There are also pics of Racheal tucked in much tighter than the above...

The bike is still kind of porky; it is about 65 lbs lighter than stock. Meaning around 520 lbs fully laden wth fuel, or about 495 lbs in race trim. I could easily trim another 5lbs off, in full street trim, I just haven't gotten around to it.

Rolled it out of the garage this morning, just like it came off the trailer. Rode it to the grocery store to pick up a pot roast. It's incredible to think that a bike like this can go 212 on Sunday and pick up groceries on Monday...without even a map change.
