    Show us your custom bike so we can pass judgement?

    Fuckwit.
    Who are you calling a "Fuckwit" ? Name-calling is never nice. Start running.......

    Only around 3-4 HP, but quite an impressive torque gain. We could also move the fat part of the torque up and down the rev range depending on how far we put the rap down the headers towards the collector.

    Every lil minute gain is important when you're racing Noddy. Especially in a class with strict rules. Not that I've ever seen you out there doing it though.

    To me the look is crap, straight away I wonder how many crappy welds and joints it's covering.
    Yep...most people do add it for that 'look'.

    You generally get back what you put out. I still remember you calling me 'Einstein' for one on my 'opinions' a while back. So you can't read...don't know as much as you think you do, and have a shit memory.
    You're a retard.

    "Einstein" sounds much better than "retard", don't you think?

    Bitter? Nah. I don't even know you, as you don't know me. I simply don't like people that talk shit.

    I like it after seeing that vid, I do prefer the factory single seat, but that tracker one is cool

    Can we have pics of your awesome custom bike Sable?

    VFR400 caliper and master, billet adaptor, braided line, drilled disc, braced swingarm, clipons, fibreglass seat, Boyesen reeds TS125ER pistons professional porting and squish setup skimmed separated head copper head gasket. Looks a bit funny but it wasn't built for looks, it was made out of junk and cost $400.

    Why don't you wrap the headers?

    I reckon it's pretty damn cool.
    I've always had a soft spot for the GB, I should never have sold the one I had 20 years ago. Nothing could keep up with me on that thing through the technical stuff - although at the time I was very young, very dumb, and, well, that's about it really. Not to mention less than 70kg.
    Wouldn't want to pay $5k for it though.

    I always thought header wrap on motorbikes was used to cover up rusty chromed pipes? In cars it can drop engine bay temperatures.
    I love the smell of twin V16's in the morning..

    ...love it, but I wouldnt pay that much for it and wouldnt lose sleep or comment on someone elses baby...have been known to give the Ducatisti shit for no other reason than the warped (not wrapped) misconceptions I have of Italianos...

    So ive got a single with 2 exhaust ports and 2 complete separate exhausts. So If I were to wrap how far do I go as I dont have a collector?
