The Factory Pro Velocity Stacks showed up today





Two really long ones for the middle and two really short ones for the outsides,
can't say I've seen this setup on any other bike but the 750

Got a set of Vortex rear sets- I use a reversed (GP style) shift pattern and
also these adjuster plates give as many options as anything else out there







And also with a little bit of a cat in the pic

Stan the gen1 Busa had two different lengths stacks. Most just went with all short for

top end. Those do look longer than a stock one's I have seen.

Got a new 520 kit- DID ERV3 chain and AFAM sprockets.
If this kit is good for MotoGP, it should be o'k for track days

Bought a used complete Armour Bodies supersport race fairings kit on the WERA forums-
upper, lower, fender, tail, draft pan, Puig screen and Dzus fasteners.
The primer will soon be replaced by a proper paint job

The top mount active Hyperpro steering damper I had didn't survive the crash last summer.
This time I'll use a GPRV4 ( just like the one I have on the zx14),
it arrived today

Decided to go even lighter and smaller with the battery- here's the 11 oz Speedcell next to my iphone for visual size comparison

I'll throw in a few pics of everything that's been put on the bike- this thread has mostly contained part pics so far.

Here's the Leo Vince exhaust bolted up and ready to scream. Got titanium?





I probably should have removed the piece of cardboard used to insure good clearance of the muffler and frame before taking that pic...

Installed the R6 1/6 turn throttle tube- the cable housing needed some trimming in order to fit the larger diameter tube. Gixxer tube out, R6 unit in

The housing on the clutch side clip on was yanked, I had to short circuit the clutch sensor (switch)







Also removed the side stand and chorted the cables for the switch, no pics needed.

As usual I'm having tough time tightening the 36 mm top clamp nut inside of the GPR's base piece- the socket is too wide and doesn't fit.
Mocked up here

Oem plugs out, iridiums in. The old ones were darker than I expected to see on a low mileage bike.

The R-R subframe will most likely need to be modified,
I will be installing next the tray and organizing the battery, pcV, ecu, tip-over sensor etc.

Taking the silencer out of the Leo Vince muffler was a bi@tch- had to drill a bolt out

Test fitting the used set of Armour bodies fairings I bought...
someone really screwed up the alignment b/n the upper and belly pan,
also most of the mounting points

There are many other things that need to be addressed before fairings fitment
but I tried to line up the upper and lower and this is the best I could do without risking
cracking due to enlarging the mounting holes for the dzus fasteners too much and close
to the edges. At this point I regret not mounting the brand new set that sits in a box but this might do for now

Looked at the pics above and realized that the recent flooding of the unfinished part of my basement has it's consequences- stained floors and a rusty fridge behind the bike for starters
