Straight roads are for fast bikes, turns are for fast riders.


As Duke seat is quite big and slippery, most of the aggressive braking will make your crouch to slide to the tank and all the force will go to the handlebars. It's even worse when you have pillion and they slide against you. But there is a solution for that, called tank grips. Those things helps you to get grip with your legs and this will also stops the sliding effect on braking. I chose the Eazi-grips as they offer the Duke ones pre-cut and they have more then decade experience in racing. I went with PRO style, as 125 does not have the brake power to need the ultimate EVO style. I also chose the clear ones as I like the graphics I have under it. The install is quite simple, but to get them on without any bubbles would need some practice. For me the small bubbles are not the problem, those make it look even cooler :)


I also received the new shift foot lever from RaceFoxx with braking foot pedal. I really like the look and quality of them. They were both more then 50g lighter then stock and they are adjustable, but sadly the brake pedal does not fit, as the 2017+ model has been made with different brake pedal system. So please keep that in mind before ordering.


Next, I think I will order the central tank grip and racing pegs for more grip to feet. Just step by step we go. Sad that there are no parts here in Estonia, and all things must come from aboard. I think I have paid almost 500 eur in shipping in total, which otherwise could be additional add on's for the bike. But this is what it is. Stay safe and I also uploaded the videos to my YouTube channel, so take a look! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1B4MKWWDDAGpeWay2jrqQg/
