:p

No because as you know full well mr Monkey, they meant the SV exhaust running past the GSXR shock once fitted!! ;)

apparantly its not up to withstanding the heat over time, as its wider.

But i am sceptical as its probably them saying that so they can convince me to buy their reccomended Elka shocks.

But if i was not going to use the GSXR shock then i would be buying a Nitron Sport shock.

If they can put an underseat exhaust an inch away from someones bum and plastics then I'm sure some pipework 4 inches or so away from a shock won't do diddly. I reckon there'd be plenty plenty air gap between, especially as motorbikes tend to move and force air between any gaps unless, that is, you're gonna just sit on it and pose! But all said "I know nothing I come from Barthelona!"

Besides shocks like to be warm to work properly so there.
