Went riding with one of my best buds last night.. Take note of his pretty special bike, a 2023 SP2 with the optional Akrapovic race exhaust (which alone cost what my entire bike is worth). I'm normally very proud of my 10R but when I head out with him, I feel like I'm driving a Camry next to an Aventador SVJ .

I've been going a little crazy with the gold anodized titanium bits and bobs . My latest purchase is the steering stem nut which s absolutely one of my favourite pieces on the bike. It provides a lot of value since it's always in field of view and something people notice pretty quickly. The 5 point clutch cable adjustor is aluminum so it was pretty cheap and another item people notice right away.


Below you'll see some 5mm aluminum standoff spacers matched with 5mm longer ti bolts to elevate the damper. When the centre plastic damper bushing wears out, the damper will no longer come to rest on top of the steering stem.
