Apparently I don't know how to post links either lol.
Hey, removing weight is just as beneficial as adding horsepower, if not more so. What battery did you go with? Definitely something I'd look at doing in the future.I like my bikes light so for me the first and best mod IMO is the battery swap from OEM lead acid to an aftermarket lithium ion. 1/4 the weight.
There's no cool or wow factor to it tho as it sits under the seat out of site and does not add horsepower!

You better not tell my ninja 250 that, Your guna hurt its feelings...:grin:It's well-known slip-on exhaust systems do not benefit bikes anymore and just add noise.
The shogun sliders are good quality at a good price. I installed them earlier this week and @jonfonts also had them installed. Only minor issues i had was getting the offsets in the same position on the right and left side but the install is pretty easy once you get the fairings/plastics off.I'm also thinking about getting this Shogun complete protection kit. Anyone have experience with it yet?

Nice! I'm also gonna get a slip on, kinda like the one from Arrow but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Also looking at the Nelson-Riggs tail bag, taller/tinted windscreen as well. Maybe a seat eventually but I'm not finding the stock one too bad. It's definitely not great though. What levers did you go with?The shogun sliders are good quality at a good price.

I don’t have many modes yet. So far I installed a usb power adapter, phone mount, new levers, frame sliders, and spools. I plan to get an aftermarket slip on exhaust (waiting for Akra), taller windscreen, a better seat, and tail bag.
Favorite mod so far is the usb power adapter. I’m new to nyc and have no idea where I’m at or going outside of the city so I use the gps all the time and having my iPhone positively charge while using apps etc, helps where I’m not worried about draining my phone dead.
I was also considering the Arrow Slip and the one posted on RevZilla here. But I will probably wait until the Akra slip ons are available in the US.Nice!

That's exactly the one I was thinking of getting! Still not sure yet though.
Any chance you can upload a quick video when you are free so we can hear how loud it is?My Pro-Race GP S-1 slip on. It visually and audibly transform my sleepy 400 to a "what the **** was that"!!
Disregard my last, I just read all the other threads.Any chance you can upload a quick video when you are free so we can hear how loud it is?
I rode my bike around with no muffler on when i was doing my de-cat job. Crazy loud, cops not pulled you over yet?No mods yet besides green rim tape and a tank pad. Need to pay off the $500 I spent on gear first.
I will be getting the Coffman exhaust with green tip. Looks amazing on this bike and for only $230. For now I've been riding with no exhaust since someone on the phone ran me off the road onto the shoulder.
