after a new exhaust? have a read here first

[fazersharp]

I would have one but at the moment my 19 year old OEM one is doing fine. The downpipe on the other hand are getting close to needing a replacement, it would be great to get those for £40

I have a straight through micron one at the moment which is brilliant. But I'm flirting with doing a track day this year at castle combe which had a gestapo noise limit on it. So instead of putting the original back on (heavy) i might go for one of these instead.

Hi Toady,
Has you can been hitting the outside top edge of the swinging arm? Scuff marks on it.

I was wondering how this can has fared in the past 7 months and the winter?

i'm pleased to say that it still looks as if it was only put on yesterday, the finish cleans up really well and the bike is left uncovered outside and ridden daily. the wadding hasn't deteriorated and the exhaust hasn't gotten any louder over time and the rivets are still all secure. to say i'm chuffed with it is an understatement, i'll definitely look at getting another for future bikes. I put an mot on the fazer a couple of months back and inserted the DB killer as i wasn't sure if it was too loud without and it flew through the MOT. best 40 quid spent in my opinion, as long as i can get these i'll keep on using them as if you drop the bike on the right hand side the first thing to hit the floor could be £200 plus of exhaust, if old Betsy hit the floor and the can took the brunt i think i can live with 40 quid rather than my tank or something else take a hammering.

Nice one, I think i will get one this month. Only thing is i don't have a grinder, will I still be able to get a clip on the end of it and the link pipe?

No mate. That was the previous can doing that. These can are very small and have no clearance issues

No mate. You'll  need to remove the clips either with a grinder file or hacksaw

Its been quite a while but I fitted the stainless steel version. I need to get a new clamp for the connection between the down pipes and the link pipe as the connector I have seems to be slightly too big and had to use some folded up foil as temp padding. I have ordered the clamp on ebay so should have it by saturday.
