The main attraction of the slipper is that they are supposed to make the clutch pull a little easier. Riding in SoCal traffic that can be quite a bonus.
I'm easing my color restriction based on input here and elsewhere. I have a bright yellow helmet, and my jacket is black with red. Another suggestion was to find some bright stickers and put those on the bike. Not sure about that, black isn't the end of the world colorwise. Plus the MTS looks pretty good in black.
I actually wouldn't do most of the carbon fiber mods. Well, except Termi CF cans. I'm more of a titanium guy. But carbon on a black bikes works ok for me...doesn't look garish. I have to talk to the owners and see which I get a better vibe from. The $1400 I save on the red one would pay for new pipes, and I can slowly mod exactly how I want. But black is beginning to grow on me...
