I agree, very nicely done. Nice exhaust, who makes it, did you change the intake as well? I have looked at new paintable fenders for my 2014 EX.
Nice eye for detail.

The exhaust is an SP Tadao megaphone style power box. I removed the power box and stopped up the pipe feeding it. This resulted in a slightly deeper and louder exhaust note.
Apparently SP Tadao recently upgraded their pipes (after I purchased mine) and made the power box smaller. They have a neat little straight pipe that was out of stock when I got mine.

The headers are MotoGear titanium (unpolished). They are cat free and require a fuel controller like the Power Commander V.

wanted to ask, since you seem to be one of the few that are happy with the high shield, what is your height?
I am 1m83 and am about to test the shield at highway speeds...

I'm 6'1". The 40mm higher shield pushes more air into the helmet area and makes for a nosier ride above 70mph. The standard shield kept clean air flowing over the helmet at any speed.
I like the look of the tall screen, and the increased noise is not an issue with ear plugs and a quiet helmet. Plus, most of the chest is protected.

Okay thats about my length, a little big longer.
You say there is an increased noise, this is not to be confused with actual buffeting is it?
So you have more noise but no buffeting or do you suffer from buffeting as well?
Thx.

What model cover is that? Is it the one they sell at Revzilla?
