Default Grrr close but no cigar :(

Well i purchased a triumpg carbon race exhaust for my speed four the other day in a top secret night manouver so the missus didnt find out. Its turned up at work today. Great! i can fit it ride home and she will never know the difference (its allways been like that hun ) unfortunatly just one of the capheads wont come out! gawd damnit. i so want to get this thing on but ive lifted the bike over twice now with a 6mm allen key.

so im going to have to wait another day.

on the flip side its only filled with a straight through baffle for the last 2/3 of the can. this is going to be loud! cant wait to see the neigbours face MUHAHAHAHA

or the suspicious look that your wife is gonna give you when you turn up and she hears the difference then asks you about it?

it wont be a top secret manouver then will it
