Today went well. I fitted the full titanium system and the R&G pillion peg removal things. Tomorrow sees the bar risers and higher seat going on, oh and a 8x6 number plate. 8-) Pics will follow but none yet as it's so filthy it looks like it's been dragged out of a swamp!

Bar risers will probably go in the bin. The bike felt better with them on, but they were the wrong colour and the fit didn't match and basically, they looked shite. I moved the bars forward and they felt better for it. Hopefully, with my arms outstretched slightly, I won't have so much weight on my wrists? Slightly worried the higher seat will compound that problem though? I'll just have try the new set up and see how I get on with it.

As usual events have interrupted things, and I still need to wash it and get the belly pan back on and adjust the mirrors, fit the 8x6 and I'm done. Might pull the DB killer out as the new system is very quiet, although being road legal euro 4 spec I was expecting it and wanted it to be, well, not too quiet, but deffo not too loud either.

Mine still has a cat, so could run with no can and it wouldn't be like that. They just have a nice bassy tone to them. :thumbup:

Yeah I'm ok with it. The offset looks a little, weird maybe. But I like the can itself for sure.

More pics of them below and the euro 4 has the cat thing so you don't just see two headers going to the exhaust, which appealed to me.

Used. c£850 new I got it £350 delivered. Guy said less than a 1000 miles, how true that is I don't know, but it was certainly the cleanest one I found s/hand.
