Every other photo I've seen of the GPR on the bike, the pipes went up the outside of the swingarm Also, I know there's more to it than meets the eye but the way they've done the colletor part is really crude...

Still, they look fantastic- I agree much nicer than the Renes.

Well I have done it, just ordered a CCC S/S Twin outlet jobbie for a decent price. I was torn between the CCC and Blueflame, but the bad build quality reports put me off the BF in the end.
The one I bought has got removable baffles which are riveted in, I was a bit concerned on how you drill the top one out, but Roy from CCC told me that the rivet is on the inside edge on the top outlet (this needs to be drilled out before fitting and replaced with a self tapping screw as it would be really hard to try and remove if it was already fitted to the bike) and the underside of the bottom outlet. He also mentioned that he didnt think I would need to remove either baffle as its loud enough and the baffles are very small anyway Yeah whatever! Them babies are coming out
He said I should get it tomorrow, so that may be another job for Sunday afternoon while polishing my heel plates and installing chewwys s/s bolt kit

Where did you get it from and what would you class as a decent price?
Just curious...I'm looking at getting something similar before the June rideout...If the bank manager allows it?

KrZ - We should meet up sometime mate. I hardly ever see SV's round our neck of the woods, well apart from the one that always parked in the big market

Hum that's a good point, we were talking about the GPR as if it were an underseat, but it's blatantly a high-level...
