Brakes - stainless braided up front, rear rotor, fresh EBC HH pads all around, and fresh fluid. Why? Because the previous owner was a doofus and KILLED the brakes in 8k miles. Killed. Seriously.

I bought mine used, it had an exhaust on it, had a double bubble screen, and came stock with steel braided lines...so there wasn't much for me to do.


Exhaust woulda been first. So I put on frame pucks and axle sliders. I'd now like to add Pazzo's and a few carbon fiber bits.

I'd like my first mod to be pushing it off a cliff...


In all seriousness, getting the mechanical issues fixed, and breakin all my new gear in!(and then single-side exhaust, shorty levers, brembo brakes, merch wheels, and a whole lotta track time with Elite!)
