i saw the youtube vid of someone fitting it and it involved taking off the fairing etc and looked quite complicated, so me being the engineering luddite i am was quite nervous, yet Rich had it done in 15 mins. i'm sure i could do it myself next time and would have attempted it this time but Rich kindly offered :mrgreen:

its a great improvement on the k8 model standard, i think the k7 doesn't look so bad and still sounds nice altho it is on my list of improvements :)

i would agree - k7 can is a lot smaller and more moto gp style - i was shocked at how heavy the std one on the k8 was (at least twice as heavy as Yoshi), so i took the 2 cans together in the 1st picture for comparism.

obviously on the 2nd pic i wasn't comparing the size to the cat, the ginger fiend just got in the way...

I thought it was YC to start with and thought that's a long way to fit a can...

Your cat looks just like my ginger tom, he shares a name with a forum member - Pookie.

He would be scary if you tried to take away his brew/biscuits/beer/fags :p otherwise he's a pussycat/walking kebab .... :confused:

If you listen to my sound clip and imagine a blue gsxr600 k8 then your there :mrgreen:

agree with Rich on that, I've not even ridden it since it was fitted, so it'll be 18 months at least before i get my A£s into gear and post a sound clip.:smt083

If you revved it in that second pic that cat would probably die.

It looks great. I bet it sounds awesome.
