thanx for enlightening me on the seat issue, i dont think we have that product here yet. The only thing worse than the pillion seat was the wee strap to hold onto, but it got me home so cant complain too much.

Mine has never had a grab strap on the seat. I did buy it second-hand, so has the previous owner removed it, or did they come out without it at some stage? It's a 99, if that's relevant.

I think they all came with the strap thingy, probably removed by previous owner, would make it easier to put the rear cowl on!

Remus Grand Prix...( theres a joke in there somewhere)

Not overly loud but still sounds awsome, my mate has microns on his storm which can almost drown out the remus, but Im happy with mine.

They are oval mufflers and sit closer than the microns.

Are yours the same

saw a piccie of your bike, looks great.

Yes mate I've got Remus ovals, while not the loudest they produce a good sound.

Dookie, That looks suspiciously like a flippable number plate
