OK, time to either make this happen or shelf it for some time next year.

Starting with the art of the possible, I have now only one weekend free in September and that's Friday 19th to Sunday 21st inclusive. I'm not available at all in October and November, so those months are out, too.

I can fly into and out of Glasgow (Prestwick) with Ryanair for a reasonable amount. Edinburgh/other airlines are too costly to consider at this time.

I would need a minimum of 5 bikes to work on. The way the flight times work out, I could do 2 on Friday, 3, maybe 4 on Saturday and another one on Sunday.

I would prefer to base in one area throughout and the closer to Glasgow the better. Time spent driving between locations is time that I'm not working and that's not cost-effective for me.

If those dates work for you and you'd like to commit now, please add your name to the post I'm just about to put up.

Cheers!

Mike

I dont think a definate location has been set as of yet (but will likely be somewhere within about 30 miles of Glasgow).

Mike will be able to confirm this, but as far as Im aware, the requirements are as follows:

Slip-On - No Previous modifications required.

Full Monty - Free flowing (aftermarket) exhaust required, aftermarket air filter also (the air filter is supplied as part of installation price though).

I think thats right, but as I say, Mike can confirm when he sees this

cheers for the reply bud , would be coming from cork in ireland so it be a bit of a trek to say the least , but will be giving it some serious thought , what benifits from either are to be expected

downey · « **Reply #72 on:** 27 July 2014, 11:29:50 pm »

wat was the price again ?

mickvp · « **Reply #73 on:** 28 July 2014, 01:00:22 am »

Hi Downey,

Best bet is to PM mike (falcon269), look back in this thread and you will see him posting, he can give you the prices and also give you all the details on the benefits (he even has a link to some Dyno results etc.) I think the full monty kit gives upto about 140-145BHP at the rear wheel depending on how good the standard engine is to begin with.

Suffice to say, if you search this forum, I don't honestly think I have ever read a single person say it's not worth every penny.

Falcon 269 · « **Reply #74 on:** 28 July 2014, 04:20:18 am »

Rear wheel horsepower for the Full Monty is around 136 - 138bhp on a good motor. In addition to the extra horsepower (stock is typically 122 - 123bhp), either kit provides smoother, stronger power delivery throughout the rev range.

As suggested above, e-mail me for more information.

Mike
