Previous owner had WELDED Yoshi link pipe to the OEM headers. Would have cost heaps to cut off and sleeve, so Racefit very kindly refunded. I've just left the Yoshi on it.
Looking well Mickster. Snapped this piece of junk. Cleaned up the exhaust a bit, colour is coming in well now. Decided to run without front sprocket cover. Cleaned up chain etc
Think I might just put one of the stickers on for the time being and get some of the Honda ones off eBay.
Took it out without ear plugs for the first time since putting the new exhaust on. Sounds immense, what a tone it makes! Would love to hear a fly by of it. Lush gargling and popping noises as it comes down the revs with a bit of flame action too. Probley got tinnitus now.
Finished off the rear on my trackday, so got some new Dunlop Sportsmart TTs to try out. Still need to scrub them in
With those wheels, I bet you had a keen eye on the tyre fitter - unless you do your own. I remember one member having a whole change/and balancing station in his garage.
Yeah had them done by the tyre man at the track just before I headed home. Better price than my local tyre man too, although had to pay extra as he had to remove and refit the wheels as didn’t have stands and tool. There were quite a few carbon rims on his tyre rack throughout the day so reckon he knew what he’s doing. I asked him and he says you just have to be a bit careful, he said he’d seen some ruined by bad tyre fitters who didn’t know what they were doing though
