The company is British (D&K Motorcycles own them) but all the stuff they sell is made in the far east (alledgedly Japan ?)
Quality wise SOME items seem O.K (i.e exhaust cans) but I have heard horror stories about the wheels & rads.

no they are British

Got an SP Engineering (very straight through and loud without the baffle) stubby end can, and I treated myself to some Renthal streetfighter bars. Might lose the foam and wrap onto another bike.
