Just wasting a bit of time warming up before I get back in the garage, thought I should let you guys know:

I've wrangled a discount on exhausts (mainly) for orgers at my local shop. I was looking through his new viper exhausts when I proposed it - they look sweeet. Not sure how the prices compare to what can be found online but we'll have a looksie, will post details on my return.

These things (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BIKE-IT-CARBON-FIBRE-CAN-SHIELD-FOR-VIPER-OVAL-END-CAN_W0QQitemZ310112999954QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Mot orcycle_Parts?hash=item310112999954&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318) £39 inc. postage.
And most of these cans (http://www.motorbike-search-engine-shop.co.uk/Shop/ExhuastsViper.html) for example the alloy round race can (£100 +p&p) : £75 + p&p
Link pipes are £50 + p&p

These stubbys (http://www.viperracecans.com/canimages/alloy_cap.jpg)are mint, £140 I think he said (just looked on wemoto for a picture and they're £166 ex vat!)!

Dave, bit worse for ware on a sunday PM, but found your note on cheap exhausts, is there a www. or e-mail address, new to bikes ( 3 weeks) and want a 'sounfd kit' for the bike, can't find logical link to contact the garage in question, could be to much beer before my dinner.
Please asssist.

No offense but you'd do well to steer clear of Viper cans. Very poor quality outer sleeves that tarnish/dull extremely quickly. The worst I have yet to come across.

no offence taken!
I had one on an old ped that was pretty damn good though.

yeah it materialised, it's a local shop I spend way too much money in.

Didn't want to post the details as this is an open forum and the garage are sound so (maybe wrongly) wouldn't be keen on non forummers taking advantage of the offer. If anyone wants the details pm me.

Scottjames and silversurfer I'll pm you.

Keep it clean.
If you don't let the salt/rust settle what's it going to do? I used to always wipe down my cbrs can after a ride.

Oh, looks cool. Mine's too loud and the baffle does **** all, how long is this 'offer' going to be on? :D

as long as they keep seeling them I'd guess.

I hate my baffle, it makes my leo vinci sound like a moped. But if I take it out it sets off car alarms and gets me fines. :( There's no happy medium.
