Yeah I still am. It's one of those mods that every evo owner on here seems to have done, with good results.

Which one did you buy and where from, if you don't mind me asking?

This was one of the first mods I did back in 2011. I fitted a Renthal 433-525-14, which I got from Moto Rapido for £21. Try here £24:

Mine came from an independent motorcycle spares shop I get parts from called Westerbys in Bradford. But it’s the same renthal as Ludd lists. If you order from Moto Rapido mention the forum and get your discount. They posted me out a rear master cylinder on Monday morning and I received it next day so would definitely recommend them

I’m running pr4’s at the moment as hey we’re on and new when I bought he evo. I’m tempted by metzeler m7 next as on the Daytona they were by far the best road tyres I’ve ever had
I put M7RR's on my street triple 765 RS last year and think they are a great tyre, my first set of metzler's in 20 years of riding.
I have Pirelli angel on the monster.

Thanks guys. Usefully, sportsbikeshop have a place a couple of miles from my house! They are a really helpful bunch.

Do any of you guys that have changed to a 14T ever carry a pillion? Sometimes with the fuelling the way it is i.e. a little bit binary I'm wondering if having even more sudden acceleration might not be appreciated by my co-driver...

Carry my wife as pillion, no problems what so ever, just makes for a smoother ride

And if you fall out, you can just crack it open and she's off!

Guy out for a ride with his wife gets pulled over by the police.

Policeman: Did you realise your pillion fell off a couple of miles ago?
Rider: Thank God for that, I thought I'd gone deaf!

Well, not really. I'm still kind of where I was at post #42 mate. I still intend to put a 14T on the front.

How are you getting on?

Really chuffed with the sprocket change mate. Been and done a few rides that I regularly go on and have done with the bike before and after the change so have a good comparison. Would say the bike seems so much more relaxed than before and easier to ride in town and at a spirited pace on twisty open stuff

Excellent, I'm glad you're happy with it. It's lazy I know, but I might just get Ducati to throw one on there during its service.
