Hi all, recently purchsed some new items for the 01 RSV 1000, I picked up last month. It has only 15,600 miles on it , but Im doing the following work after only having a "fast" spin around the block.. and no rear brakes :dowhat

Oil and filter Mobil-1 15w/50
K&N air filter
NGK Iridium DCPR9EIX plugs
520 gold GXW chain and sproket conversion 16/44
Metzeler Sportec M-1 tires 190/50 ZR17 and 120/70 ZR17
EBC H/P carbon graphite series brake pads
New Brembo rear master cylinder and rear brake rotor

anything I missed ? all advice, knowledge and past "Oh sh-it's", as I perform the work this weekend will be greatly appreciated... :dunno

what a palarva

I just fitted a 16T on mine yesterday and then proceeded to shear the bolt off when torqueing up I raced up to my dads to borrow his drill before the threadlock set and managed to get it out with stud extractors
Just need to get a new bolt ( when I'm back at work tomorrow ) then I can take it out for a test ride and see what the difference is compared to the 17T.
