I think I'm losing my mind here...I reinstalled my stock mirrors today.Tonight on lunch break I actually began to toy with the idea of switching out my TiForces for STOCK mufflers. Not only that....OMG....I actually don't desire to go to the top velocity anymore!I think it's a conspiracy...Pirelli..yeah,they're doing this TO ME.Ever since I installed my SECOND set of Angel ST's...my bike is so smooth,I don't NEED to get thrilled by bustin a move on the hometown straight.WTH is happening to ME??????

Well blue sit down in my chair. hummm have you changed your coffee recently? Maybe you just want the hot chicks to see you a lil better. At any rate theese are serious symtoms that you described. What I suggest is that you eat a couple a busa's, go to the closes high school when the kids are getting out do the sickes burnout you've ever done, I mean smokin like a mutha. Then peee with your helmet on.If this doesn't help and you start ripping off the carbon fiber and tarin off the tattered flags n-shit we will have you lock up your 14 throw away the key and purchase a ninja 250 the old ass one.

that will 2500 dollars... thank you DR. Ninjinhimmer

Then peee with your helmet on.

The high performance stuff is cool but if you are happy without all of that, i think that's a fine path to take.

I returned my bike back to stock before I rode it to NC and I really enojoyed the bike again and never once did I miss the HP or even really notice it was gone. The bike was smooth again with no vibes,no backfire I am sure its slower noq and heavier but to be honest the stock feels nicer to ride on the street. I would think you would notice the vibes even more on a zx14 once you put on an aftermarket pipe and God forbid rearsets.

I don't get anymore vibration with a PC and Brock's CT-DUAL exhaust system on than stock. Get about same gas mileage, maybe even more based on RANGE display. But if I get into it, the gas gauge goes down fast.

And the CT-DUALs aren't ear-splitting either, which is nice.

I have no desire to ever go back to stock.

Don't go into the light. Prune juice and a walker awaits us all, don't rush it. A couple of redline runs should clean out the cob webs. Maybe a Quick head shake is in order. Call a friend maybe. Keep your Man card tucked deep in your wallet.

"call a friend maybe".....at 190 you have no friends!

".....at 190 you have no friends!"

Well, you still have friends...it will just take them a little bit to catch up!

Whew....thanks guys...I feel better now.I won't be switching anything else!

Got so used to my pigspotters on there...weird...it just seems WEIRD having those stockers back on.Tomorrow.....I'm gettin out and havin an all day ride....and take some vids as well.Can't believe ALL the bikers here have put their bikes away for winter!Amazing.Supposed to be mid 60's tomorrow.PERFECT weather for ridin.WTH?I DO feel alone!But not around here....around guys who understand

I know "they" think I'm crazy for ridin when the temps start droppin....maybe I am...if "they" had a zx...well....what can I say...I LOVE my bike!

Blue what would make you want to take off those beautiful TiForce high mounts for the stockers? Too noisy? Vibes? What? I'm curious...

I will never go back to stock. I don't like the sound of the bike, plus it runs way hotter with the stock exhaust. I would run a full exhaust even if I LOST horsepower. I love the sound THAT MUCH!!! Glad you're happy though. That's just one less pissed of citizen that will vote for anti-motorcycle bills.

YUP luv my vince just a bit louder than legal sweeeeeeeeeet f---- those "cannons"

That's exactly what I mean Bad(love that avatar)....only someone who "wasn't well" would want to remove those sweet cans! Just a glitch in my software....I'm over it now!

I thought you would wake up. No worries about mellowing out the riding but the bike doesn't need to change.........you just know you're going to have your moments...and you need to have the juju when you need it.

I know "they" think I'm crazy for ridin when the temps start droppin....maybe I am.

Not at all. Heck, this ain't cold. 60 degrees?????--------shhhhhhhoooooooo. We have 40 here in the AM and it feels fine to me as long as i dress warm for a longer trip.

One thing, the rubber just doesn't want to stick this time of year so careful on the corners. I'm feeling mine squirm front and back and I'm not even pushing all that hard. Got a new set of BT-003s sittin' on he livingroom floor-can't wait to try them in the cold...carefully...not worried about strips this time of year.

WHEEEEE.....I had a great ride today!Took everyone's advice....couple o'good blasts...some sweet curves....feeling fine now!

Well,it was 32 this AM,but upped itself to 45,50 by midday.PERFECT!GPS'd my baby today as well...She's topping at 186.Little surprised there...but it's cool.I'm(God allowing)gonna do as the instructions say on the healer...set it to -90%,then make ONE MORE run(today).My garmin will read "max speed" and save it.I didn't know if it would do that..my speedo will be useless at -90.But it will bypass the limiter set like that.We'll see.

Rook...you say your tires are squirming?(in the cold).You really ought to give these Angels a shot some time.I never get any weird feelings from these,regardless of cold.They just grip like crazy.I don't try to do any wheel spins in mid turn or anything ...but,I've leaned er all the way in to the edge and at over 100.Nary a peep of pucker!I'm still wondering WHY so very few guys are using Pirellis.I love mine.

We just had our first week under a hundred degrees. Its party time boys!

Pirellis....? Maybe next.

Party time is "brag about our hot weather time!" Here we go again.

I'm riding 'til December no matter what you guys say.

Yahoo!Awesome.Pigspotters back on now...stock screen for today's run.Buck....get ya some great rides in now....can't really remember what 100 degrees feels like...but it must be good!Ride safe.
