    I plan to get it painted

    Fit the Akropovic Exhaust

    Fit the Levers Ive just ordered from 2 wheels

    http://shop.the2wheels.com/CNC-Adjustable-Clutch-Brake-Levers-Set-for-KTM-Lever-Set-KTM.htm

    Then I want a double bubble tinted screen, rears sets, Quick shifter, ECU Remap (you dont need a power comander with any KTM any more) & find a tail tidy.

    All things taken into account I should have it completed by the time we get back to riding in the new year :D & I will post up pics as I go along.

    Please don't paint it Daz....

    The stick on gel kits look good enough and can be taken off!

    i knew you could use a pc and tune ecu cable tbh. only heard of ktm dealers doing the akra maps and people trying their own with the software and special cable.

    no cash for any of that yet though. still looking for some cans but would have to be a bargain!
