You know what the answer is!

I would sooner have boot marks than that pig ugly Akra

Termignoni or Yoshi will be along shortly with a thing of beauty

Shortly? Don't count on it! Personally, I think the Yoshi and Termi cans on BMW bikes look shite. I prefer the Akra for the sound, and as it's a BMW accessory doesn't cost any more to insure or affect the warranty. As for the look, it looks much better in the flesh.

I've fitted Akra's to my last 2 GS's but in all honesty i think the stock XR exhaust is the best OEM that BMW have ever done.

Mark, I think your exhaust hanger looks the bizz, you seem to act quick as well where as other companies are still pissing around, you need to get over on the ducati forum, there screaming out for a exhaust hanger to replace the stock pillion peg and a man of your skill would piss it.

I need one as well .

 

[Mark Hooton]

Mate I'll happily make a hanger for you. I would have to leave you and your kindness to mention it on the Ducati site as I have my hands full here. Come and visit or send me a drawing and I'll happily take it on

Someone seems to have stolen your windscreen.

Excellent.

It's one of the hardest design jobs I've done - the stand really nazzes up any clearance and of course the stand has to be able to operate without catching the belly pan - this will take me a while to solve (if I can) but ding dong I will happily try to squeeze you in fella

It does look like it'll be very close. You're the man that can though!

I've already got the stand pivoting without catching woohoo

Chain Guard

Chain Guard

Patience, dear boy.

 

[Mark Hooton]

Belly pan redesigned last night (Revision A) will attempt to laser profile today (if I get the chance) and will see where I need to go for Revision B.

Will consider chain guard whilst I'm sat on the loo having a crap...........(as long as the phone isn't ringing)

What purpose does the bellypan serve, Mark?

It hides the unsightly cat. Not applicable if you have the Akra headers.
