Raptor Chapter

Hello guys,

I just wanted to introduce myself as I haven't done since I got my bike.
I have a 35000 kms V-Raptor 1000 that is my pride an joy. Aside some few quirks, I'm a very happy person to have it and definitely is a keeper.
I have few extras on my bike, I wish I had more but because I'm travelling for work quite a bit, I have no time, and when I have, I have no money...
Mods/Changes:
- Roadsitalia exhaust cans
- BMC Filter
- Rear suspension triangles
- LED rear light from a Yamaha Aerox
- Metzeler Roadtecs 01
- Renthal sprockets and Z ring chain
- EBC pads.
And the last mod but very important, I got my ECU to a guy here in Greece and he fitted a programmable chip, so he can plug it on a laptop and program it properly. It needs some more work on the dyno to unlock the full potential but I'm already quite pleased with the result. Redline at 11K rpms (!), second gear throttle only wheelies easily and generally, more free revving engine. I'm looking forward to get it on a dyno and set it up properly.
I'm looking for a small windscreen as the one I have is a bit big for my taste and some suggestion on handlebars, so I can get rid of the original ones that are made out of wax or something...
Anyway, drinks on me on the virtual bar!

Nice ride, did the tail light fit straight in?

I'm thinking about a set of Renthal Road Low Bars for mine.

Looks lovely!

The tail light is a straight fit, looks damn good, it's easy to find and cheap.
As for the Renthals, I'm a bit worried that the ride might become uncomfortable.
I've seen some members installed these, so they are definitely compatible, but more info?
