Looks a bit tight on the chain, might want to put some protection there.

Sweet though

Isn't there supposed to be some different suspension dog bones to raise things up a bit so you don't have chain problems?

Did you get my message about the rear exhaust header and collector pipe? Do you want it now that I've gone to the trouble of taking it off the bike?

This is one of the reasons I don't like the Rene' exhaust system, don't get me wrong - they sound great but I don't like the way they're constructed

Much prefer the GPR Racing system

Their pipes are like this...



Much neater IMHO

Yeah, that's about as badly as they normally fit, perfect.

The biggest problem I'm having is the side-stand. The fat pipe's in the way and I'm sometimes unable to grab it with foot. I presume this is the correct setup of second exhaust so I'll get to with the collector pipe mod.

Yes Mike I want your bits. Let me find and reply to that email.

I've not seen it so can't give a view. Is there another way of doing the second exhaust? To be honest the chain isn't hitting the pipe.
