So what was wrong with the Motad ones??
I shall rise above it!! Just seemed strange to buy new ones and `not use them cos you wernt impressed`, then set about getting someone to weld up and repaint the old ones???
I think it's pretty straight forward, a matter of inserting a smaller diameter pipe into that area of the downpipes. By all means the Motads are not bad - I went to PDQ last week and when I said I had Motads Nick there went "good", so I reckon they're some of the better of the ss pipes. FYI, my bike did a smidge under 80bhp and a smidge under 41 lb/ft. Full Motad system and K&N filter, 46k miles on the clock. Not super impressive but that was before fettling and is about right for a bike of it's age/mileage. Having said all that, the FZS600 which made the most power 86.?bhp was completely standard according to his records but was a Foxeye with much less miles.Anyway, I haven't really looked at my own pipes recently but what Paul describes in the above link makes sense to me. I think I'll give it a go this year and see if it makes a difference.Why dont you fit the Motads to see if you notice a change in performance from your oem set?
I have had it done again since but forgot to ask for a print-out.
Fuzzy I would be interested in putting the motads on and going for a ride, but then they would no longer be new and unused so I couldn't either return them or sell them as new condition. I would be interested in doing a dyno run when everything is done, how much does it cost and if adjustments are required what does that involve? Do they have all the parts with them or do you need to supply them? I think the nearest to me is a 200 mile round trip either way, Bristol or Cornwall, but may be interested in the future.
