Thanks guys, fingers crossed!
Funny you should mention that Brent, but I do in fact as they require one piece suits and my usual ones are 2 piece. I think that's about it, otherwise bar the license I'm all set for class 10.

OK, so I gave up on the R1200, it's on eBay at the moment. Bought myself a Yasuni R from PedParts instead. Pulls from 6k, sounds lush and in real life is no slower. Win win win!  Xenon headlamp bulbs anybody?  |

I definitely don't see Yasuni pipes get bad reviews too often (not sure I've ever read a bad one?), so I think you've picked a winner for sure.

My C16 was great, but the leaking (and noise) from the stub drove me nuts, hence getting the R instead which uses the stock conical flange mounting. One other thing going for it is that they are made of much thicker metal than usual, which goes some way to reducing the metallic ''ting'' of a 2T. And who can argue with a carbon fiber endcan  |

Looks good!That mounting bracket looks thin in the pics,is it aluminum? It's mild steel, looks to be nickel or zinc plated to stop the rust. They did have a real rust problem with the old ones that were just sprayed black. It's about 4mm thick, has a bit of flex bit I think that's a good thing as it'll help stop things snapping. lol, I like that "ting" tad ding, ding!!!... Nice pipe!!! You need whatever is gonna get you running good and keep you there for awhile. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!! You deserve it man! :rofl: I think I do need it Robert, as if I have to even open the CVT in the next month I shall go nuts :twisted: |
