Gidday, welcome aboard the MCM craZy bus.
You might like to head on over to this 650TR compilation thread to get yourself started.
Hi Michael,
Good to see a fellow Australian on board.
Cheers, Rob
Welcome
Hi Michael. What do you think of the TK. I have just purchaced one and I am busy modifying. Cheers, Mike, QLD.
Hi Mike,
Yes had mine for approx. 12mths now, no issues at all. I am a short arse being 5`7" and had the ER6N lowering kit done by Tecknik at Penrith so much nicer when my feet are down.
Please post mods and photos,
Michael
I have a silver 2nd hand 2013 model. I am 6', but still I have been eyeing off that rear suspeasion with thoughts of lowering. Good to know the ER6 parts fit.Quote:

Hi Ruang. The screen is homemade. I purchased a sheet of 3mm perspex, cut to size and bent it with a heat gun. It does work really well. I am 1.8mt. and it gets rid of most of the wind and noise. I could send the construction in more detail if you like. I am going to make another one 50mm taller to make riding completely quiet.
Goodday mike,

Hi Mike, How's the new screen? Does it work well? Am thinking of doing the same or get the MRA x-creen extension.Quote:

My new..new.. screen works sooo well. I have made the second one 700mm long. I can just see over the top. There is very little wind noise and you can actually enjoy the motor sound. I have drilled one hole at the base of the screen to give it stability. I will send some pics if you are interested.Quote:

Forgot to introduce myself. I got my 650TK last Feb 2014 and live in Melbourne, Australia. Been riding daily to work but given up after a few months. Now back to riding daily again.
The mods I done to the bike so far are heated grips and cruise control. Mods to come will be longer OEM windscreen, longer side stand and LED headlights.
