The Spanish definately are not the most hard working nation on the planet. It took me 3 days to place an order, and they will ship it at best on Monday.

It took 2 weeks to receive the the cans. But yesterday they finally arrived and are installed. Then i proceeded to terrorise the local community - without dbkillers they are loud as hell. Panda is happy, will post pics later. :mrgreen:

looks great but really need to do something with the tail tidy as it spoils the clean look?

Great shot - very moody. Yeah a tail tidy would look great - http://www.ebay.com/itm/140886060698 - I got one for my duke from them and it's well made. I prefer to keep the original plastics unchopped and in the spares box, just in case she ever has to pass a roadworthy test, never quite sure what the legal requirements are.

Hey forum, i am still here and with the same bike, would love to upgrade to one that has the bigger engine, but RL constantly adjusts the possibility of that :D.

I have a buddy who bought an SV1000 (most of you prolly know its the same engine) which i've got to ride a few times, so its a reminder that a Rap with a liter in it will be just bonkers, gimme!

Currently prepping it for the new season, just cleaned the carbs and synced them, need to tighten the steering head and the coolant pump is leaking for the last 3 years already.

I have one seal for it, but theres two inside and i dont know which one i have, so that will be some fun after I take things apart. Also need to replace the clutch cable and take care of various smaller bits. Ordered a Metzeler Z6 for the front, and am surprised that the rear Z6 has 6 years on it already.
