Wow… motorcycle parts are really expensive… This slip-on costs ¥140,800 including tax… I thought it would be about half that…
I might not be able to keep up with new bikes anymore. The bike prices themselves are shocking too! Our shop is practically stuck in the 20th century, so compared to that, it seems… reasonably priced? … Hehe
Intricately machined muffler bracket
Wow, what intricate craftsmanship… amazing… I was a bit intimidated. The rounded design with the shape-locking system means single-point fixing works perfectly.
With Honda’s typical tight clearances and design, aftermarket parts developers still rise to the challenge.
Since there’s clearance at the insertion point, it’s best to compress the gasket to the right position.
Even a proper center stand stopper is included.
Since Honda OEM bolts in M6/8/10 are stocked abundantly, I blackened them. I also replaced the included nuts with black flanged lock nuts.
I always hate throwing away new parts—though I do sell the steel…
Like the stock one, it’s quite aggressive. Maybe I seem young because I’m Urashima Taro… Anyway, the muffler is done! Google—old
TSR Lowering Boogie? Hajimechan’s Soarer
This is what I’ve been asked to change.
What? 10mm difference? For a moment I couldn’t believe my eyes… Every time I encounter something completely new, I’m amazed… I wonder how much it will drop…
For now, I’ll roughly check with the center stand fully extended, measuring vertically from the axle.
With a nice tool like this, you can smoothly remove and install the link bolts without breaking a sweat. I love working without having to squeeze myself into tight spaces (*´ω｀*)
The serviceability was surprisingly good, which was a bit anticlimactic. Honda has become quite efficient these days—I’m pleased (*´ω｀*)
Fully extended at 32mm… that explains why a side stand is being sold separately.
I haven’t lowered it yet, but I’m pretty sure—actually, definitely—you’ll need one.
That’s how I installed it. Next up is the dash cam, D-UNIT, and Quad Lock & smartphone bracket. I’m pretty sure you’ll need a side stand too… I’ll search for one.
X-ADV (RH21) Custom: TRICK STAR “IKAZUCHI” Muffler & TSR Lowering Kit.
Muffler: Installed the TRICK STAR “IKAZUCHI” slip-on exhaust. It’s government-certified (street legal), lighter than stock, and produces a deep, sporty sound. The hexagonal design matches the X-ADV perfectly. Suspension: Installed TSR lowering link plates to reduce the seat height. This greatly improves stability when stopping and makes the bike easier to handle. Verdict: Better sound, better looks, and better footing. A perfect upgrade package.
