G'Day from Aus.

Just picked up my GRiSO a couple of days ago. Sold the VRod to do that but kept the BMW S1000r
The weather has been crap so I haven't even been out for a decent ride yet.
The weather looks good tomorrow though.
Looking forward to changing a few things on the bike and this looks a great Forum to help with that.
Cheers,

What year?

Things to do with all of them are grease the swingarm bearings and shock linkage bearings. If a pre 2013 model it will need rollerising unless it's been done or it was one of the later 2012 models.

Yea, I'd like to do some pics, but when I click on to "Getto Image Hosting" can't seem to get onto a registration page.

Welcome to the Ghetto mate! Like the bike, are the exhaust open? In the photos they look rather free flowing. My experience (and I am sure you will hear it from others here) is that the pipes need to have the spud in for best mid range and overall performance.

You automatically get an image hosting account with your registration, it uses the same login credentials as your ghetto account.

OK. I'll get some more pictures up today or first thing tomorrow.

This is a work still in progress, in that I'm not happy with the left hand side and am going to get it altered to tuck the mid pipe in, closser to the wheel.

The bike runs realy well. I was quite suprised when I first got it back, feels stronger, faster than before, no backfiring or flat spots, just goes hard. Sounds absolutly fantastic.

One of the things I specified in the job was to re-create the pretzel, which he did.
The cans have a 51 mm inlet and a 60mm outlet, straight through, Danmotos titanium wraped.

I was pretty sure they would be way too loud for me so specified a couple of db killers.
They are about 5 inches in length. Simply a 32 mm pipe flared out to 60 mm. Result was spot on for me.

Anyway I'll post up some more photos shortly.

Never seen twin pipes on a GRiSO before. They look great. Happy riding mate.
