    Nice. If you don't want the rear seat cowl, hugger or mufflers...
    Hmm they are what makes this ad attractive, well mainly the scorpions.

    Yeah, gotta do something with my mufflers. Also want to get a seat cowl at some time - about $190 new.

    Apparently very easy to do yourself. A 38mm (I think) metal hole-saw and then some wiggling. Very loud though. There's a thread somewhere on Ozfirestorm: http://ozfirestorm.proboards.com/index.cgi

    We have a clever engineer at work who used to make mufflers for a living...

    But don't you have to re-tune the engine because of the change in back pressure?

    That would depend on how much programmed compensation the ecu has I would expect. Will run leaner otherwise
