I've got the T&G peg eliminator blank things now, so will fit them, and other bits, next weekend. It's kinda weird but because the graphics all match, it looks OEM IRL? Well to me it does anyway. :lol:
We'll be the judge of that. 8-)

A 31 mile trip into London today. Some A road work, c85mph, and then through (surprisingly) heavy traffic, but the EML didn't come back on? Hopefully that's an end to it?

I didn't expect it to mate. For whatever reason it was on, but i didn't think we'd see it once sorted.

I've spent hours looking at systems for my MT-07 and reading the reviews etc. I want something I can hear, but not something overly loud. It's not easy...
Akrapovic are always a good bet. A decent note with the baffles in and not hideously loud with baffles out.

I like the Akras, especially the later ones as you still get the OEM look as they have a cat box thing? The trouble with the akra is, it doesn't have a protruding can as such? I like the Euro 4 spec SC project a tad more I think?
