    I ordered my full titanium Arata exhaust system with a matt black silencer today from FW Developments. unfortunately, I am unable to get it fitted until March as my partner is unwell and I am snowed under with work. It will be fitted along with a PC and BMC air filter, plus I will get a QA throttle fitted at the same time. Thanks to everyone who helped me out.

    Cheers

    Sod's law is an understatement Arthur.....my new Arata full system was delivered two days ago Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The full carbon can Akra was the one I wanted as well. Never mind. You should be able to get a good price for it if your mate doesn't have it as they no longer make them for the 06/07 a great selling point. Your new one will be ace.

    Hope so mate, always had in the back of my mind "why did I not wait for the Ti system" but when you want something its got to be NOW in my book! So I got the SS system back in 07 as it was next day and not two months..lol.. I will miss the carbon can but you dont see much of it and maybe the Ti can will stand out a little more, also the end cap is slightly newer and has the new style logo rather than the old round sticker recessed into the carbon cap.. Anyway mate where are the pics of your new system! :)

    New Ti Akra used once.. :D

    How dare you compare me with Givover!

    He's an evil minded, bigoted, misogynistic, tight fisted, short tempered, over opinionated....

    Oh wait...

    Yeah, I get it now.

    Arthur, your exhaust looks brilliant mate, especially liking the blue and I think the silencer looks better than the carbon one. As for mine, I haven't even seen it yet. I had it sent direct to BSD, along with PC, lambda sensor, 02 sensor, HRC QA throttle, Evotech tail tidy and booked in custom map.

    This will be fitted after MTC have fitted my rear Ohlins, re-sprung forks and matched oil and full set up..........it should feel like a different bike when it is all done. It should also be a little quicker :D

    Givover, you can dare to add good looking, but I have a feeling there may be some disbelievers among us....not me of course :)

    But I doubt if ether you or kpone are half as sexy as Arturs exhaust, that is Arthurs motorbike exhaust....I have never seen Arthurs exhaust ;)

    I can't wait Arhur, I am like a kid waiting for Xmas. I have always wanted an Arata system and especially a titanium system. I am hoping the mods will liven her up a little ;) I like to have a bike that won't let me open the throttle fully without thinking about it a bit. If it doesn't scare me then it aint fast enough. Looking forward to seeing your pics and perhaps a sound clip, should be awesome.

    You won't be able to drink for paying you tightfisted old bugger.

    Now back to the subject in hand. Arthur, you have raised the bar yet again and Exfire......you bastard!
