How is your new tinfoil hat? Comfy?

No from me unfortunatly. No money, no time, and no tyres taht could handle a trackday at the moment. can't afford new shoes for the blade and there is no way I'm doing a track day on the barge.

I need a job...fast!

Can you not just bung a stock exhaust back on?

I have no sympathy, obviously, being a fully paid-up member of the "loud pipes don't save lives, they just sound obnoxious" society.

I could spend a few hours putting the original back on but then I would lose my membership to the loud noisy exhaust club.
I am still thinking about it

I was a member of that club once. Then I got old and boring.

I even paid to have a full race system taken off a bike. And a dynojet kit removed. And put them both on ebay. And then (eventually) wrapped it round a tree. But I digress.

I can't really see the point in having a noisy exhaust on a inline 4 anyway. V-twins, well that's a different matter.

Yeah. When you've got a diesel, you really want people to know you've got a diesel.
