Well,ive got my new(used)can on. I got it on ebay for £39.95 incl postage. The reason it was so cheap was cuz it didnt have a mounting strap,but that didnt bother me,as i have several. Its an Arrow race can. Shorter than usual,but not so short as those horrible shortie things. It was intended for a 1200 Bandit,so although the mounting holes were the same at around 85mm,the outlet spout was "on the piss" as theyre about 20mm different to the ZRX(like the 1200 can on an 1100-it fits,but on the skew). So i attacked it with a hacksaw & sawed the spout off & my mate alloy welded it back on for me in the right place. It looks great 7 has a real rasp to it. Not tried the bike with it on yet because of the weather,but with the stock can restricting the top end & making it run rich & the carbon Art can giving loads of top end,but lacking mid range,im hoping this one will work well. Will report after a test ride...and take a picture tomorrow.
