That one is like only seeing half a birds nipple !
Due to M25 traffic, it was dark when I got home, and half rain, half mist.
You'll have to wait til Saturday, when I'm home in daylight.

I can't believe that you found one so quick and a decent price, looks like a fair few of us are buying new bikes for next year. At least I stayed in the Honda club with mine.

Look forward to seeing it in the flesh next year you staying with the colour scheme, or are you going to change it?

Well done Tony,
I'd love to see some side by side comparison maps of the Single Arrow pipe versus the twin ovals :thumbup: See if there really is that much or a power shift or if it's just on paper.

My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal

Actually I'm more interested to see how the titanium Ladybird double can system looks, when I :lol: get round to ordering it soon as the Storm parts find a new home.

But the Remus Titanium cans don't have a system to hang them on, I only got the full Arrow system on the bike plus the two cans and link pipes.
So they will be up for sale shortly, and as soon as I get the Ladybird system I'll be selling the Arrow single side system.
But for now it'll do, I suppose...... :lol:

Yeah, that would do it for me too. Ditch the Remus cans and use them as a down payment :thumbup:
You'll get a couple of hundred minimum, more if they are titanium.

Glad you got what you were looking for Tony, just don't do too much to it, you don't have to, they are great bike even in standard form, just spend your precious / valuable spare time riding it instead of pulling it apart and putting it back together again :lol: just enjoy it for what it is, which I'm sure you will when you see how much pleasure you get from it, they are something special, :thumbup: and in my opinion anyone who doesn't think so hasn't rode one are hasn't rode one for long enough :thumbup:
