Cool New Exhaust - Thanks guys

Well after a quite a few questions and excited ponderings I got around to fitting my new exhaust yesterday, wanted one for ages but couldn't justify the cost. I was expecting to get one at the show this year as I've been saving but got a bargain on ebay, battered but suits me just fine and here are the results:

Thanks for all the help and advice, couldn't have done it on my own
quite proud of myself, my first major bit of mechanical work (and it hasn't blown up.... yet!)

Cheapy way but suits me, givi plate bolted to a spare pillion seat. Can remove it just with the key then, plus it gives some shock absorbtion for carrying my laptop

I'd put a bungee over the top, the plate and catch aren't guaranteed to be so strong.
