I have one fitted to my pointy when I'd bought it, Can't say anything about the claimed increase in power as I've never ridden one with a stock or dyno'd etc... but tell you what, with the baffle out it sounds pretty awesome :) much nicer than a stock pointy I've heard.

It shall indeed sound good, 50 is pretty good, new they're something along the lines of 140ish I think, so yah I don't think you've been robbed :p

I couldn't tell the faded either to be fair and that dent is minor, Its worth the 60/70 quid less for the dent : p

Thanks

GSXR750 USD forks, early 1991 L or M model

Plenty of folk have done the swap, go for later SRAD ones, easier swap than most, and better than my early ones.

Although mine are loads better than stock Sv
