Hi everybody !

I ride a sw 600 since 2 years 360day/365 (before that i had the same but a 400 Wink )

the first thing i did was to put hyperpro spring in front fork
then i changed the exhaust for a leovince 4road and cut 9cm of the DBkiller
and 10000 km ago i put a JCosta variator inside affraid

my tires are Metzeller Felle Free

light is all white with xenon and superbright leds + leds on the acerbis handguards dualroad...

now i would like to change the back shockabsorber and i'm looking for a piece of advice...

i think i will put Fournales but do you know something about Bitubo ?

i'm glad i found a forum dedicated to the best GT scoot ever jocolor sorry for my english and if you speak french you are welcome on club-scootergt Wink
i'm going to read a bit...

Boudioue,

Welcome to the forum and your english is really good. It sounds like you have done the same things many of us have done. I have the hyperpro front springs and it really makes it feel more of a motorcycle feeling instead of a scooter.

I also have the Metzler's after having 2 sets of Diablo's and the original Hoops. I really like the Metzlers and hope they last as long as the Diablo's (which are great tires too). Since you have the Leo vince exhaust, have you thought about the Power Commander? I have that and it really makes the engine just 'purr" along, even though it is already very smooth.

Please post some pictures sometime. You can go to the "Albums" section and create your own folder to place pictures. We would all like to see your bike and pictures of your country as you go on rides. And thanks for joining and hope you enjoy the site.

thanx JeffR and congratulations for the site administration and your many pictorials.

The little I saw of this forum is pretty like our club-scootergt in France (people sharing the same hobby, meeting in real life or not and chating about several subjects).

whith drilled air box, power commander is the second thing I discovered here but I have to read a little bit more to make me an idea study (and i know if I have any question... Wink )

Tomorrow we'll ride with friends of my club I will take some picture of our trip and put it online... motorcycle

goodbye from Paris :

I killed my speederbike 15 days ago, something about the engine... Maybe it's better like this because I was going to put fournales shock absorber to push further the limits of this amazing bike...

After thinking about it I decided to change for a everyday-bike and i will try to be wiser with it...

A BMW F650GS twin (798cm3)

Enjoy your bikes !
