Had some cans delivered from ireland today and thought they were back to front as i took half me knuckles off fitting them Then i found out i had the link pipes on the wrong sides Still all bolted up now and ready for the test ride thursday . It was 10pm when i finnished putting them on the bike and didn't want to cause a fuss starting the bike up at that time , but should i Removeable baffles are still in place but i dont think they will be in for long Pics to follow Just hope it dont run rough when its started but i might have a look at the air filter just to make sure its clean then take it for a run

Jef .. anyway i had to start the bike up in the shed and what a noise but i wanted more so i took the baffles out and tiz loud , Loud enough to get the neighbours out a bed Luckily it was raining so i never woke the whole town up What a difference though, sounds like it should now snorting and poppin a gud un . Must say that those standard twin cans weigh a ton chewd me knuckle off getting one of the bolts off ..pics soon soon as brakey sends the sun over an then the snorkel can go in the bin

Well im not 100% sure but i think the cans are made in australia staintunes i thought originally these were made in the uk but swotting up im sure they are made in ausi . No matter, they are really good quality and come with as i say removeable baffles Nothing on them to say what make they are which is strange but guess the ausi's forgot that Seen a few of the cans on youtube on different bikes , now if it stops raining ill be able to test ride them where's me ear plugs :mut:
