Re: What Have You Bought For Your Bike Today?

Absolutely, that Termi is awesome and really fits the flow of the bike. It's the weirdest process ever for buying an exhaust that's for sure ... and that's coming from me !!!! But looks way way better. I did actually think you myself I’ve stepped into Weeksy World😂 The aim was to get a full termi f...

Re: What Have You Bought For Your Bike Today?

In a pretty complicated way I bought a new exhaust😀. I was never totally happy with how the akra pipe on my hyper sounded with or without baffle. The full Termi system comes with the remap and an uprated airbox lid which apparantly makes the bike what it should be, problem being it’s £2k plus fittin...

Re: £3K Electrically Assisted MTB

Sorry if you already knows this but emtb senses the power you put in and adjusts the power assist accordingly eg if you properly push then it will automatically assist in turbo mode etc. It’s almost like an automatic mode that you can just leave it in.

Re: My new red two-up touring bike

Is the skyhook the same as the electronic ohlins on a panigale? I had a go on a 1299s pani the other day and the suspension was very impressive on rough roads for a sports bike. As far as i know its different . I know the skyhook isnt on Ohlins bikes, its just a semi active upgrade inside Ohlins ki...

Re: Good days ride...

My stamping ground, both mtb and motorbike. Strines, on a bike with mandlebars, sticky tyres and a good throttle/rear wheel connection, is simply glorious. Just watch out for the fucking peacocks at the Strines Inn as they wander on to the road and seem to instinctively know where the apex of a bli...

Re: Good days ride...

Cracking roads round there, I love the Derwent/Ladybower area for bikes and mtbs. I think the strines is one of my favourite roads, been down it a million times but I seem to have a mental block about remembering what’s next😂
Will probably be down there this aft hopefully 👍

Re: Oh, is that another KTM ? Really ? Are you sure ? Is this the one and only keeper ?

Had a Remus on my 701, it was one with a cat in and was the only pipe I tried that didn’t sound shit on it. That 690 one sounds awful though😀
Ive seen a couple of people on the hyper forum with pipewerx cans and they really rate the quality, they have a big choice of different styles too.
