[/size][/color]Glad it's all going well so far., Alex (my son) who now has my 5PW R1 has this job ahead of him, apparently it is still possible to locate headers for it, last time I found some in a race workshop as they usually don't use them. R1 has now covered 67,000 miles but found same model on MCN with 79,000 on the clock for sale at around £3k!!
[/size][/color]Glad to say my little Fazer 8 is still doing the job well and has been around Brands a few more times and best of all enjoyed a day at Thruxton with 3 x 20 min sessions, long day 100 miles each way and best of all though did 100 miles track mileage, was a bit knackered to say the least :eek
