PM's go to your email. The rox risers are pricey new, but are very nicely made, and your life does sorta depend on them not letting go unexpectedly...

I can recall how Hooper's '06 felt 10x quicker than my '08 from a dead stop. Mine always did feel like it was starting in 5th gear. Grrrr

Well I just put 100 miles on it and found it to be much smoother at cruise than expected.
I am concerned about the muffler valve/servo not working. Exhaust is so quiet all I hear is intake noise when spooled up. It also seems much slower than my last 2 Buells.
Any history on these sticking/failing?

OK the flapper does open at WOT but no increase in note. Had race kits on the last 2 Buells and spent the last 2 years on a higher HP bike so maybe its just me.

Sent you a PM - getting delivery failures, but I think it is an Apple/Gmail - SBC issue....or commie pinko spies

Okc...that's because mine was BLACK!

I put the 1" Rox risers on - totally changed the feel of the bike. I sit up a bit more and have less fatigue on my arms. Love this bike.
