I tell mine everything, because I've seen what can happen if you don't

I did enquire with mine about exhausts as I was thinking about it when I had the SV. This was when I called about the fairings and cowl.

The bloke on the phone tapped away and eventually said he didn't know if it would make any difference and said he would call me back after investigating. He eventually called me back and said he still didn't know but to call him once I had decided and bought an exhaust and then he could do a quote.

WTF?!

When I had mine I was with Bennets and they didnt mind as lomg as there wasnt 10% performance gain. 6 on 60bhp, as if.

Still no poll.

I'm still on the standard can, but I am looking to change it. Not really looking for something rediculously loud, but fruitier than the standard one. Slightly louder means more chance of cagers noticing when filtering too. But alas, other things have a higher priority (for both the SV and my bank balance)

Told them about mine. No performance increase = no rise in premiums. Was not listed on my insurance schedule, so made them write to me to confirm they had it listed. Don't want any of that wriggling out of a claim cos I didn't tell them something.
