Looking good, real good.

Is that a bike can I see? Do you think the IVA will be happy with the end not rolled? I've a fireblade can and have been wondering what to do with it.

Jimmy, it's a Yamaha R1 can, and does have a rolled lip, so I think it'll be ok.

Cheers

Adrian

Thanks Mike, yes I did make up a new link pipe. Found a really good company on eBay who made a pipe to my length, and swagged at either end to account for different tube sizes between header and can, next day delivery for £14 all in! Total cost for the can was less than £40, and it works really well!

Cheers

Adrian

What about the exhaust header? Is that a Kit Spares one?

Yes it is. Very happy with it actually, wasn't expecting much for the money, but I'm pleasantly surprised!

Your dash panel is rather cool, best give yourself a pat on the back.
