Cheers BIG UN :biggrin It should look better once I get the rearsets and chain adjuster on. Big problem with rear brakes though, I haven't got any lol. Thinking of getting the upgrade off rsvr net, the master cylinder, large caliper and heatshield.

'Tis a funny thing, loud exhausts. I was reading a test in MCN the other day and Adam Child said he must be getting old as the exhaust just seemed TOO loud. When I fitted my Arrow cans I initially took the baffles out. After a month or two it just seemed too much and the baffles went back in. My brother said that when riding behind me it was shaking his head about. What did it for me though was when I was riding through a village at 30mph a little girl holding her mum's hand put her hands over her ears and starting crying. That just made me think they were far too loud. Besides, I don't like attracting the wrong attention!!

I've left the baffles in Dave, plus the cans have improved the bottom end on the bike. It wasn't so much the louder sound I liked it's the deeper note I prefer. What I have noticed though as well is that there are more and more loud car exhausts, you dont see them getting pulled over??
its true,its not so much loudness for the sake of it,its the right sound for us we seek.my blue flame was loud,but not as nice a sound as my aprilia ti.
ive swapped em back as i like the look of the ti,its a much deeper bassier sound rather than a tinny bark and it weighs fook all compared to the stainless steel b.flame.
