  1. @BurleyWinter riding in BC and winter riding in southern Ontario are 2 completely worlds. HAHA I wish our winters were like yours. Thank you all for the tips on the windscreen. I will definitely be getting one and will try a few out first (Thank you Amazon Prime for free returns) and then buy local. @Garz747 you're from Barrie.... nobody wants to know you're coming! hahahaha kidding... I swear. As for the exhaust, I am stuck with a few options. I know I'm not spending the money on the Akra. I had one on my previous bikes and loved it, but it also was half the price of what it is now. $1700+tax (Ontario tax is 13% for y'all that don't know) is a lot for that now. For me, I'm going to have to give a listen to the Hindle (hopefully it's not tinny) and the Yoshi. Since the scorpion is not available for some reason here, I don't really have other options. I spoke to a friend who said the LeoVince sounds like a dirt bike coming down the road, I have elimated that. As for the horawful massive turn signals, anyone know any good flush mounts for the front? As for the back, I will be making my own custom bracket for the plate and the lights. I made one previously and got asked where I bought it. ahha I will send pics of when it's all done. But seriously.... Thank you everyone for your help on this. I keep my bikes for around 10 years before jumping to another one so I will definitely be having some fun with this big girl.
  2. @fjray oooof... last best thing bose made for home speakers. LOL
  3. I checked and do they not carry for my bike. Unless I did something wrong, no scorpion.
  4. @fjray, I agree, however I agree with The Pilot. It's isn't about making more power or lighter (maybe a fib on the latter), but there is something about making a motor sound like it should really sound. It's like going to a movie or an opera, watching it is 2.0 is great for the people that calls their friends and say they bought their hifi Panafonics TV at Walmart. But when you watch or listen in 7.1, it adds a whole new level to the experience. My previous bike (R1) had a hindle when I bought it. Hated it. Sounded like a rattling piece of garbage tin can. I put an FMF on it and it wasn't loud of obnoxious, but it had this deep sexy grunt and idle was deep but quiet. That's what I'm going for.
  5. Hey gents, Do you have to get the tune when "upgrading" the exhaust? I am just looking for a better sound and don't mind the few ponies it adds. Also, with all these exhausts, I'm looking for that nice deep grunt sound. Had an FMF on my R1 and loved it. It got compliments. Wasn't that loud but when you opened her up, she screamed like a friday night date. Any recommendations for that?
  6. Kenny, I've seen those and they have peaked my interest. Only problem is trying to find those in Canada. I've been looking and was thinking of going that route. Definitely many thanks for the pics and info!
  7. Thank you betony for all that. I have been searching around and have seem to found a few exhausts from the top back. I was told to stay away from LeoVince on this one just because they sound like sh*t (that's what I was told and let's be honest, the YouTube videos on a laptop or tv speaker don't have that full Atmos affect lol) As for the windscreen, I have the factory one installed of course and found it to be on the bottom end of adequate but would like something a little better. How much smaller is the screen compared to the OEM one? Thank you again for your assistance with this!
  8. Greetings y'all, I just picked up my 2019 900 GT and have to say I love it. Smooth, quick, handles and boogies. Gotta admit, I'm a little smitten by it. Having said that, there are a few questions maybe everyone can help me with. 1) Is there a good after market exhaust that does not delete the centre stand? I have found the akro, but find it pricey. Any other suggestions would be amazing! 2) Being 6'3", I find the wind on the standard windscreen is a blast when I look like my own bobble head. Does the touring windscreen actually do justice, or should I go with the Piug? Any suggestions and ideas are appreciated. 3) Is it me or does that select wheel seem as an ex-girlfriend when trying to do stuff with it while riding? I do appreciate ya'll reading this and any suggestions you may have.
