Jammy git.. they look rather nice. Look forward to hearing them next time we're out on a jaunt.
Jammy git :eek2 You said you were staying stock :D I have now had a quick rip with and without the baffles fitted and although a bit loud for riding through small villages they give the bike a sharper response right through the throttle range without the baffles in, in fact it just sounds and feels happier without them in :twisted:

No SJ, I went for the stainless painted Satin Black. I have heard of Caron cans splitting on Twins.
Hopefully this picture shows them better.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Dont get me looking at carbon huggers :D Seriously though I dont want a hugger and I dont want an undertray. Just my own personal taste and I would prob feel different if I owned a different colour.
