So, this is my 3rd motorcycle. My prior bike was a 03 600rr. I bought this brand new in crate this past summer for a steal! Sticker price was $8499 I paid $5800+$700 fees!
I have since been modding my motorcycle with mostly cosmetic upgrades. I plan to get the akra exhaust as it fits best with the overall Aesthetics in my opinion and it's sounds mean!

2 brothers exhaust which are very good systems?

The 2brothers carbon fiber exhaust looks great too but doesn't have the high pitch race type sound I want in the higher rev range. As for the termignoni, I haven't heard it nor have I seen how it look on the 650f

It's a huge difference! The performance and the comfort are the biggest differences, and the imo you sacrifice the arm pulling performance for the ride all day comfort of the 650f. I miss my rr but I now have more of of an all around bike that I am extremely happy with. After all it still tops out at 140mph

When I bought mine, I was determined to get an RR, before it was too late for me! :oldman: Spent a day on a blade, loved it, but common sense prevailed. Moved from a CBR600FW, so a natural choice. Lots of traffic & lane splitting during my normal riding, so weight & manoeuvrability spot on!

Im glad your enjoying your 650! The rr are just too much overkill for the streets. I find myself to be a much more relaxedand defensive rider now

Where did you get that seat from?
I bought this seat off eBay from a seller in Thailand. There is a littlegap between seat and tail fairing. Other then that is fits well and stays in place with no issues at all. Also I love how it gives the bike a little more of a sporty look too!!!

Exactly. RRs have their purpose for sure, but it's on the track. I don't spend enough time there to warrant owning one, and my income doesn't support a 2nd bike 😁

I purchasedthe bar end mirrors from Amazon. Only $20 great reviewsso I decidedto try them out. The installationwas simple. About 20 minutes total. There are vibrations in the low revs not too much though. Overall visibilityhas improved.
