Tariq get a stainless steel downpipe for that Remus can, you wont be able to detatch them after long lol. And Tariq, can your CBR get anywhere near 130 lol? Pointless numbers. Hopefully my bike will be able to get a bit closer to at least 90 when i fit my cam and get my head sorted and high compression piston :smile:

The remus exhaust came with the piping. I dont know anything about it because i got the bike with it already on (still got original can/pipe).
You saying i can get a new pipe, remove the remus can and put it on the new pipe? Ebay - Stainless Steel Pipe
Could i also just swap the pipes from the original exhaust?

No, i cant hit 130 :P I can get 85ish on a straight on the speedo (which i know can be unreliable). But the speedometers are different for the repsol, i think because its racing colours, they also did a "racing" speedo :D by just adding 20mph to it :D

Go for 6mm at least, think mine is 10mm and I think it looks much better than 6mm.

measure the space on the rim and then get the size you want, i was looking at getting a 10mm tape which would leave me about 2mm spare space

Look for Nicky's Stickers or "Bit Fooky". I bought some black rim takes from him and these reflect white. Totally inconspicous but show up when I need them to.

I have since bought more of this back-reflects-white tape to go on my black bike.

But for your colour scheme, I'd get some narrow diamond grade trim to use as high lights on the plastics. :thumbup:

Sorry for bringing up an old thread (less than two weeks though)...

I have a 2008 (58) White/Black CBR125 and was looking for rim tape, I'm thinking 10mm tape but what colour, white would be the most obvious but is a bit repetitive what would other people suggest as a good colour...?
