Well i purchased a triumpg carbon race exhaust for my speed four the other day in a top secret night manouver so the missus didnt find out. Its turned up at work today. Great! i can fit it ride home and she will never know the difference (its allways been like that hun ;) ) unfortunatly just one of the capheads wont come out! gawd damnit. i so want to get this thing on but ive lifted the bike over twice now with a 6mm allen key.

so im going to have to wait another day.

on the flip side its only filled with a straight through baffle for the last 2/3 of the can. this is going to be loud! cant wait to see the neigbours face :) MUHAHAHAHA
