Talking New cans for the Duke

Some of you may be aware that we, Lissa and I, find the 45 mm Termis a bit quiet.

So we have purchased a set of 50mm JHP stainless cans and the all important link pipe off of ebay. 200 quid including the c/f heatshield.

Just gonna clean em up a bit before fitting them.

So are you gonna scare me with that at AR09 instead of the SV?

My bike is louder now its derestricted though. Not much, but it might just dampen the impact of you and lissa coming past and inflicting the "ohmyfuggingawdwhatsthatohjesusitspeteandlissaholy crap" syndrome.

So what your trying to say is..that you were rather embarrassed by the fact that YCs bike was far louder than yours up North eh Pete??

lol joking aside, it did sound quieter than your usual loudness, you didn't scare me at all overtaking

You mean Lissa will clean them, right? Just getting worried for you if you start doing the cleaning

Loved the sound of the duke as it was, so hope it'll only be better.
Hope I'll hear it one day

Very nice Pete - with a bit of luck they will drown out the clutch!
