By old SV I take it you mean curvey? I had them fitted on mine and they were ace!

The only problem worth a mention is the side stand rests on the new second pipe and does not go up all the way. This leads to it touching down early on left handers, especially if you hit a bump or are two up.

The other problem you will have is that Renegade have up sticks and moved to Portugal! So unless you can get some second hand (complete with doctored collector and foot peg spacers) you will be struggling.

Didn't know that.

Don't worry about the peg spacers if you don't get them. I run a single Rene Hi Level and before I got some nice spacers made up I simply used longer bolts and a couple of over sized nuts.

But as Luckypants said they are not over here anymore which is a shame. New they are very expensive around £800 - £1000 depending on options IIRC however they do appear on eBay. But your looking at 1 every 6 months or so, they will then fetch around the £250 mark. In my opinion they are worth it, I like them for the look and sound, others may disagree. At the end of the day its up to you.

You having to pay import duty on the cans or are they imported by UK office and sold by UK company?
