BIKE DETAILS SUSPENSION : Showa A-Kit forks and shock . I ’ m not sure why they change them out , in New Zealand I have a very good setting with the standard fork . HANDLEBARS : Works Racing Parts . Just a standard bend without a cross-bar because I like my bars in a lower position . TRIPLE CLAMPS : X-Trig Red Clamps .

LEVERS : n / a CLUTCH : Rekluse . Strong and reliable .
EXHAUST : Akrapovic . Good power and super light in titanium . SPROCKETS : n / a GRIPS : n / a FOOTPEGS : Raptor Titanium . Good grip under foot and they save some weight .
