I like the sound of Dukes so it must sound good, any sound clips available at all? By the way, I love what you have done with the tape I might have to do that myself, the white really goes well with the green. That probably sounded a little camp, so read it again in a manly booming voice for my sake please :P
I use mine daily all year, it's still pretty tidy. I'd say get a tin of ACF50, it's great stuff. As effective as spraying with heavy oil, but it lasts for ages.

No sound unfortunately. It doesn't sound like a duke, it's a softer, heavier sound. i like it But you can do a lot with it- Scorpions are raspy, CCC are rough as hell, there's Termis available... Lot of options.

The stripes are in paint by the way
I like the fact that there is different sounds to choose from, though the guy on the SV1000 I saw on Sunday who saw us filming near Squires had some twin cans and they sounded awesome. He kept coming back and wheelying past us, show off but had some skills. I'm talking at least 100mph wheelies. Balls of steel!

I like how the stripes are in the paint, though I might pay homage with rim tape, will it add much BHP to my bike if I do this?

Will get a few tins of that for the winter months.

Pretty sure the tanks are 16ltr on the 2004 and below
Cheers for that, so I'm looking at about £14 for a full tank, at 45mpg, 1 gallon is about 4.5 litres, 160 miles to a tank, about 150 miles to reserve, about that? Or is that maths totally wrong
