After not being able to ride for two months :( due to some respraying, I finally got everything back together, and the ART can fitted that I have had for ages. First attempt at the MOT got a fail on brake binding so I cleaned them up and fitted new seals and all is well, and sounds f***ing fantastic :D And it looked good enough for a photo, so here it is in all its glory (and sunshine!)

Too true. To be honest it felt a bit rude riding through town with it, on the way to the garage, disturbing peoples day out, I soon got over it though :smt020

How's the rebuild going? Ready for the sunshine?
Is yours a twin spout? I'm interested to hear the difference as I'm loving it loads. First commute into work today and had a much bigger than usual smile in my face.
Just out of interest (a because waiting paid off for me) the can cost me £21, strap and clamps £10, and the link pipe with spacers bracket etc £15. Plus a bit of postage, £20, and I think I have the SV bargain of the year :) !
