    How loud is the TwoBrothers pipe? This one is cheap at $US217
    http://www.klr650.com/StudebakerMufflerRX14.html but this is reported to be too loud to put up with for extended riding
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    Just had all four replaced under warranty - got a letter from Lyntech that they were to be replaced. Got that done last Friday. Went out for a ride Saturday, dropped it and popped two of them out Hoping they will pop back in.

    Whos lyntech? Did they approach you first? When you say popped them out do you mean they came off the ittle metal angle piece? One of mine did that then broke the metal bit off on te next drop.

    Did they give you back the old ones

    Lyntec (no "H", my mistake) Holdings are the NZ importers/distributors of Kawasaki.
    They sent me a letter stating that there was a recall on certain models and the VIN number of my bike fell within the range.
    Fault was that the turn signal mounting stalk could break.
    Also mentioned that LTSA have been notified of the fault so there is the possibility of not being able to re-register if the work is not carried out.

    If you are concerned that your bike should be eligible for this, call 09-256 7360 and ask to speak to Wayne List, technical services manager

    When I dumped the bike they came apart where the rubber flexy bit goes into the base. I'm hoping I can get it back in.
    And no, I didn't get the old ones back.

    Supertrapp IDS2

    Hey Crossrider, I just got a Supertrapp IDS2 from Happy Trails. Fitted up very easily, weighs next to nothing, doesn't sound too loud (in my opinion). You can "play" with the discs to adjust sound/mixture anyway. Cost $US290 to my door.

    Thanks for that, Was also looking at the tank and engine guards from klr.com. Has any one bought those?

    No, that'll teach me not to use tyres beyond their use-by date.

    Tyres have a use-by date?

    You mean you don't sell your old ones to hard up racers as slicks?

    Weird.
