WTF is going on with this exhaust? I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that, but.......
Apologies if this is yours but its hideous!
Cheers Neil

It does say the exhaust is a "one 0ff" so thats good.
Can't say that there is much about the bike to my taste, but each to his own. I can appreciate the work, time and effort (and maybe money) that has gone into it though.
 It has got 15 bids on it so far so good luck to the guy.

A 4-1-2 exhaust. Original (daft?) If nothing else. Not for me, it is different though, I'll give him that.

To mirror limax2's thoughts, it definitely is unique. Appreciate the time and effort gone in to it, but certainly not to my tastes

As for the exhaust, that's the least of my concerns  :eek

Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad
