Okay, I couldn’t help from getting some aesthetic upgrades. Sure, they don’t make the bike go faster… but it’s already faster than 99% of the cars on the road :) In my defense, the carbon fiber pieces are lighter than the stock ones, if that’s worth anything. At first I wanted to replace the key guard, since the stock one is made out of some hard rubber material and it’s finish wasn’t the most robust. So I decided to get a carbon fiber cover for it from Shift-Tech, but decided to get some other stuff as well… you know, to match…

Below shows the front fender, sprocket cover, and the key guard cover.

The key guard.

And the sprocket cover.

One thing I excluded from the order was the exhaust heat shield, but quickly decided that was needed as well, and it arrived soon enough.

Carbon Fiber-izzled:

These pieces fit without issue and add a nice touch to the bike in my opinion.
