I've faffed about with the exhaust on the GSX650F for a few weeks now but I'm fairly happy with the current set up now. Looks tidier than the dented Scorpion and isn't super tiny and poorly fitted like the stubby was.

Took it out for a ride yesterday afternoon to a simple spot for a couple of pics, away from people.

Looking well that exhaust. The underside would look better if you could get some matt black exhaust spray paint on there

 

[InvaderGIR]

Yeah, it is a bit grim underneath and some black paint would smarten it all up. Will have to have a think about that when I've got a lot of spare time as that'll require removal of the whole exhaust from the engine etc.

 

[Lakeland]

You could probably get away with using some of that super thin plastic dust sheet to pass over the top of the exhaust and round the bike so it can be done in situ

 

[Tenzo]

Seems fair to pop this in here too.

My 2014 Daytona in red, the day I got her. I've since managed to get some decent tyres on and give her a good clean. Had some minor oil seepage that's been resolved (bolts not tightened up to spec) and hope to get a triumph quickshifter in the coming months.

All in all, she's not the most comfortable, but it sounds fantastic, handles well and is more than fast enough for the road.

Already thinking about next bike, Tiger 800 XCA at the minute.

 

[Mickcas]

Already, , planning it as a second bike or replacement

 

[khemist]

Replacement, can't afford two bikes, i should have bought an adventure bike instead.

I'll be keeping this until next year i think, got my custom seat incoming so should be a little more comfortable until then.

@Tenzo I had the Street Triple, always loved the Daytona though such a stunning bike...

I had the Quickshifter on my triple, so much fun, I found myself slowing down just to go back up through the box to listen to it

What tank pads have you got on the 650R?

 

[khemist]

Techspech tank pro 6 on middle top and 62-2031-SS on sides (bottom middle one comes with also).

Very nice. It also comes with the only exhaust allowed on a Ducati

Picked this up last week, 8 months old, 1k miles at a very good price

Just received first mods today, Evotech tail tidy, Rad guard and paddock bobbins.

Cheers. Yeah, glad it had them on - I wasn't looking forward to the expense of fitting them myself if I found one that didn't have them fitted. Other than that it is standard, although I want to do something with the tail over the winter - just got to decide what option to go with. I like the look of the Werkes Intergrated tailight and fender eliminator. Although the Evo-Tech ones look good also.

 

[Griffo]

A bit/several months late but I got this thing. I love it! Hand guards are missing in this photo simply because it's such a wide sausage and my wide garage door isn't wide enough!

I've seen one somewhere online with gold wheels and worryingly am tempted.

Ah, this:

 

[khemist]

Looks great with the Gold wheels.

Looks very smart, don't see many in that colour

I think there are 2 variants of white, of which i've not seen many myself, but there are a few for sale now.
