As we speak, borrowed my mates polisher tonite, and gonna get them polished up over the next few days, there are a few little scratches on them, soon get them out...

Did have a bash with my dremeller the other day... thought i would get them fitted first before i polish them...

If you are are ever looking for a trx to polish, you could nip down to Caerphilly and get in a spot of practice

Hardly rode at all last year or this so far. Never made it to Abergavenny, more likely to be found around the A470 about Brecon. Keep an eye out for me, loud, red and naked and so is the bike.

Terrys is one of my favourites. Don't know about tomorrow though, my sister in law is arriving for a few days, what sort of time are you about?

Hi,

sound quite tidy really, I did try them with the baffles out.. and then put the baffles back in with not a lot of difference in perfomance, or sound.. so will be leaving them in, and only taking them out for my track days....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did pop down to Longlife exhausts today, to price up some link pipes... was quoted £60 a side.. so told them what to do.... Did get a good recommendation for a company in cardiff called pro speed exhausts..

link here

http://www.pro-speedexhausts.com/whoweare.html

phoned them and gonna take it down, reckono they can do it for £60....

Anyway....

Al..
