There are various makes of pretty much the same thing ........ and that's one of 'em.
That'll do the job, and it's a good price too, it just looks a big box to tuck away on the rap.

WOOHOO!...TWINS!

well, I got one :?
but the connector is triangle shaped, is this correct because where I think it goes on the bike it's a straight connector.

Bfef how is yours?

Hi Brutas, got mine in the post this morning. Bazzywazz's instructions are dead on, look behind the air in snorkel on the right hand side of the bike and you'll see the male/female triangular connector that you open up and put the TRE in line instead. Have put mine on and going out for a long ride tomorrow to see what the difference is! Have checked and NO RAIN due yipee!

Not sure about this TRE business.... :blink:

The bike is definitely smoother without it but seems to lack a bit of ultimate power with the very quick getaways from standstill.

Installed it all gets a bit lumpy but *feels* quicker without actually getting anywhere faster.

Oddly the fuel economy :lol: seems a bit worse without it!
