    Very true. Pays for the food & fizz this Christmas, as Mrs. V has invited all of the immediate out-laws to ours for dinner...

    Bummer. I've got to go to mrs kens sisters for lunch. I'm trying to come up with an injury that doesn't debilitate me so much that I can't watch porridge and eat chocolate and drink port but would prove fatal on a three mile drive.

    If you fancy cooking for 8 adults & 3 children (Mrs. V doesn't demean herself with such trivialities) we could possibly trade Ken?

    Nice one V, however the limits of my food preparation skills are salt and shake crisps.

    Plus Spending time with Mrs Kens family is the inlaw equivalent of throwing yourself on a hand grenade to save your buddies. I wouldn't do that to anyone of you.

    Well, Givover, obviously...

    Yup I started it up without the baffle in and at first I thought it was a little loud. After letting it warm up I gave it some revs though and was expecting it to be deafining but it actually was fantastic. Not too loud but gave a real lush sound. I put the baffle in also and it made a big diffence. It sounded just slightly louder than the standard exhaust.

    I only really ride on the road mate. Though I might try a track day some time next year. I'm getting it dyno'd for baffle in and baffle out using the map switch on the pcv. Can't wait to get back on it now :)

    Just the same as a pic then? I'll try it tomorrow then if that's the case. Honestly can't believe how good it sounds :) That and the old system must weigh at least 8kg. I reckon I must have saved 3-4kg easy.
