Tired of the sound or do you just want more noise? Why do so many people think loud is good?
I prefer power over noise but noise is often a side effect. I haven't bought an exhaust yet because I'm pretty sure the ones available are only good for sound and maybe a little weight savings.

Both actually. I won't get into topic of loudness on motorcycles. Everyone rides how they want.

I do agree somewhat. I think the stock exhaust sounds like a car. I absolutely love the bike, yet absolutely hate the stock exhaust. It doesn't sound like motorcycle at all. I don't need it to be loud, I just want a deeper sound.

Had my bike for a couple of weeks now and still waiting on the color inserts for the panniers.
Dealer could provide no ETA.

My color panels came in Friday and I picked them up yesterday. They make a big difference in how the bags look on the bike (no surprise there).

i went to Bangkok motorshow and was told they would include the panniers if i bought it then and there.
i told my local dealer this so they matched it.
got panniers, lock kit, extra colour bits and fitted for no cost.

however after riding home 110k's from dealer with them fitted and not bouncing off anything, i clipped a large pot plant in my own bloody driveway putting a large gouge down the side of left hand pannier.

bugger !
