Hi everyone, just got myself an 08 superduke on an 09 plate in white, totally standard, had quite a few race 600's before , ninja's rr's etc, so this is quite a change for me.
First change on the bike for me has to be the can's, any recommendations, I like the look of the Arkros, are there any alternatives?
Thanks
Nigel |

Welcome! you made a good choice white looks cool too! where are you in the UK?
Akrapovic exhausts are good and LeoVince are the main exhausts of choice for the UK SD'er but
there are loads out there such as FMF, Blueflame, GPR, 2TR MotoGP Cans.
My personal reccomendation would be these:

Carbon Yoshimura dont think anyone on here has them yet only just come out 
Do you do trackdays? |

Ermm that link doesn't work.
I'm in the Midlands, just outside Wolverhampton.
Yes I do, do trackdays, but havn't done any since 2006.
Untill last year i hadn't ridden since 2006, had a break while I bought a new house, kitchen etc. |

Wasnt 2006 the last "decent" summer we had here?  
Get yourself booked in for two days on track 19/20th July at Cadwell in the Trackdays section on here will get you back into the swing of things, quite a few us going  |

Even if that was true and we all know it's not as Orange is obviously the fastest, the black ones don't stay upright or running long enough for them to back up their claims

I do believe the fastest is none of the above its the mish mash you want.
It has hints of true KTM orange....
The originality of fast titanium....
Splashes of go stealth black...
Scores of speedy white.....
And of course go faster stickers!...
......who owns such a bike? Oh me |
