    Hey guys and girls,
    Recently got my second Daytona. Love these bikes, such a great machine. Read the forum a few times, thought I'd best join :)

    It came with the carbon rear, but blue seat cowl. I got the rear seat as it colour matched better, and pegs to go with it. (Am building up to getting a carbon cowl)
    I've also just had all the footpeg hangers and the side stand powder coated matte black, just so they blend in to the bike better. Am thinking about getting the carbon front mudguard so there is just the blue stripe of the tank and fairing.
    Plans, are to get the exhaust decatted and de-exupped by a welder, then -1+2 sprockets and remap at t3. Also want gb racing ending protection kit. Am thinking of removing the crash bungs, wants the consensus these days re cracked frames and cylinders from impacts vs slide protection?
    Trying different mounts at the moment for phone and camera, ram mount was crap, wouldn't tighten up. Different type with metal wedges is a lot better but still will turn. But it mounts it too high, and I don't like the camera in that area either, can't tuck in. Will just keep phone in pocket
    Camera probably under screen, front of nose cone, or chin mount.
    Sorry for rambling, here she is

  8. Welcome in! I love the caspian! I used to bang on about it being the best colour in 2011 when I had mine and 6 years on it seems to have turned into THE colour to have!
     
  9. She looks stunning and welcome

    My last Daytona. Had to switch to a flag nose cowl as I cracked the original. Can't remember how...
