I got so much planned for this bike.  Its stock now.  I'm going to put on a M4 exhaust w/ rejet.  I also want to replace the rear lights w/ maybe R6 lights.  change the mirrors.  get a belly pan(fairing), new tires, ignition advancer and new handlebar.

But alas, I have no money!  anybody want to donate for my upgrades?

I am getting the exhaust put on this weekend with rejet, though... :cheers:

From what I hear, you can pretty much use any aftermarket exhaust.  The difficulty is in making it fit.  My friend is a mechanic and metal worker so he's going to put it in for me.  He said that it shouldn't be a problem.

My brother just started BMW mechanic school and hangs out with guys that are really into cars and modding (no surprise there). He has a buddy there whose friend makes custom headers, and has made them for dozens of bikes and cars. I'm debating getting some made. I wonder if I could get a GSXR exhaust made with the exhaust manifold made to fit the GS5... We'll see.

Anyways, if I do go through with it, I'll let you guys know how it goes. I have a buddy at FedEx who can ship anywhere in the US for $5. I could send some out if people wanted.

Just an idea.

Dave  :cheers:
