Just picked mine up and love it over the 03. So noticably different in all good ways. I've got 180 mi on her so far and noticed the CCT might be a little louder then on my 03. Anyone else hear it on theirs?

What do you like better about the 04' from the 03'? Just curious because I havent had the chance to ride on yet.

I love the 04 I had a 2K. I agree the bike is a bit noisy I figured that was because it is new. Glad to hear i'm not alone. I have 220 on mines as of lunch time today.

I am going to put a D&D on mine I also noticed it is noisy when it is hot but I am in California and temps are in the 90s in past weeks.
If I just hear the D&D cool the noise from the cam chain is overcome by the exhaust.
This bike is very smooth and quiet, except the valves or the cam chain, I hope this does not create a problem after a few miles are on it. GREAT TOPIC!

i have been reading the posts about noisey engines and noticed this was about 6 months ago
i have bought a new k4 600 and have been pulling my hair out over the engine noise
your posts have put my mind at rest
has the noise got better as the bike got older
i havent noticed any recent posts on this subject http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/piss.gif <font color="yellow"> </font>
