    Thumbs up It arrived. Finally!

    Yep my Yoshi half system has finally turned up.

    After binning my bike back in JUNE (see pic below) I decided to go after market for the zorst
    since insurance was covering the repair. The insurance company was great through the hole process (Swann) but MotoGB,
    the place carrying out the repair have been a pain to say the least.

    First the guy ordered the wrong system and slapped in on the bike anyway because he didn't know the difference
    between a slip on and a bolt on :slap: And then it's taken since JUNE for them to get the right one

    The reason I was ticked off was that they never thought to chase it up even though
    I was ringing all the time, that was until the insurance company and I really started jumping on them.
    Only to find out that it was never sent. Next thing you know it arrives within 7 days.....Funny that.

    Now I have the system on and it's great and I swear I can feel a bit more grunt too, so I'm a lot happier now that the bike is finally looking like it should

    As opposed to the other one making the bike look small.

    Thanks all.

    Getting rid of the set valve ceratinly helps.
    I have the same model bike with the same pipe, I am running a Green high performance air filter and that makes quite an improvement also.

    Got the K&N in mine + minus 1 on the front sprocket and a TRE. Goes good.
