Fuel Carbon?
 
Hi

Am looking at buying a new 650s in black, and was thinking a nice carbon can would look good on it.

From what I have read on here - Fuel seem to be a good choice. However, looking at their site their carbon look can is almost grey rather than black - does anyone have one fitted to their bike and can show me a pic of it?

I *think* the fuel carbon can is actually just a steely with a carbon wrap over the top, ie. actually weighs more than the steely. Been looking at carbon cans myself though (red pointy with black frame, think carbon prolly looks best).

Fuel cans seem highly regarded here though :)

Agree the carbon doesn't look like real carbon.

I have just fitted a stainless oval and I am very pleased with it.

Are there any carbon cans that are similar value for money and performance?

I am happy to spend a litle more money, but would like one that has a removable baffle.

I used to have an art can on my CB600 hornet, it was probably a little too loud at full revs, but was quiet enough when pootling past police cars!
