Yup. I've been running with a standard can for the last 45 thousand miles. Everything you've read on the forum also applies to running a standard can. I haven't ridden one with a less restrictive can but even standard it is transformative. It is smoother, much better fuelled throughout the rev range, and it hangs onto the power longer at the top end.
For £110 quid and a (long) afternoon, it's the most fantastic modification.
I'm sure a full monty is all that and more, and I love hearing a bike on the pipe going down the bypass, but I don't want the police sitting there 4 miles away saying to themselves 'Ere, listen.... 1st, 70mph, 2nd he's up to 90, 3rd, that's got to be 110 eh, Bob? We'll have him when he comes round the roundabout"
Or is it just me that knows what bike is on the way by the engine note, and then counts gear changes and estimates the speed ....
ok. Just me, then.
