Hey all, I have a 06 RSV. Everyone is talking about upgrading the brakes to R1. What year or type of R1? Am I doing just the front or also the rear? What about the other components, master cylinder, lines, etc. Any input whould be great. Thanks

Hey all, I have a 06 RSV. Everyone talks about up grading the calipers to R1. What year or model R1? Do they bolt right out to the existing mounts? Am I doing just the front 2 or do I also replace the rear? What about the master cylinder? Any input would be great. Thanks -

Earl, Thanks for the info. I figured it was lean and I just picked up a vaccume gauge to sync the carbs. If I botch this up I may take you up on the help. Thanks again, Ed -
Hey all, I am the proud owner of an 06' midnight venture. The knucklehead before me gutted the ends of the mufflers with a screwdriver. They look like ass. The sound is good but there is alot of popping when the throttle is released or going down hill off the gas. I just installed Baron Bag Slash Slip-Ons. The factory baffles were not wrapped, Wow are they loud, can't hear my Jimmy Buffett cassette. The popping is even LOUDER now. I wrapped the baffles with fiberglass, took it down to almost bearable, still popping loud. Does anyone have a suggestion? Muffler Brand? Tuning? Etc. The Baron Mufflers are going to be returned. Thanks

Just picked up a used 06' Midnight Venture. Wow. What a nice bike! The knucklehead before me used a screwdriver and can opener on the muffers for his version of modification. Now I'm looking for new mufflers. Any thoughts to brand, type, etc? I want it to sound healthy but not obnoxious. Thanks
