Hello all, I just noted a few persons talking about different exhausts, I saw a great one in Italy as posted down below somewhere, any way I bought one, this strangeley was not the one I saw but similar, sadly they didn't do the trick one for mortals, we only get the domestic plumbing version, based upon the erstwhile stalwart Italian Rock...the Guzzi 850T3....at least it seems that way, I wanted swept back Triton or Guzzi raceco big bore (thats me)....anyway it is a good pipe, nice and compact swept up nicely to coincide with indicator, expensive game at £35 each....I later shoved an old ducati indicator up elsewhere away from Hot Gas (Me again)...the sound was great, the Top End excellent, it lost a bit of mid range I think, perhaps due to lack of front balance pipe or maybe a tight Y joint.....?I'm afraid I'm not too technical....
AS life would have it I suddenly grew old and bored of blaarrrring around the green green lanes of wales and returned to standard frumble and its sweet grunt and genteel apparent conservatism yet actual low down hooliganism...see some piccies of QD system;IMG_4672.jpg

Its a standard one I modded and had re done by Custom Seats in Birmingham with a Gel insert, I tried to buy wunderlicht but un available so created this one, they got the cover design slightly wrong, the grey is too long and some other minor hiccups with a cross piece but hey, it was fairly comfy and better for my 5'9" having said that I put standard one back on for last ride and it wasn't too bad although a bum nummer after an hour or two on the road....

RE: Seat

That seat would be ideal for my old 5'10" frame, could you give some details on the mod.
Thanks Mike
 
Hi, it was a new standard seat, took cover off myself, cut down foam 3 inches, shaped it and sent to Custom Seats in Birmingham I think, I did try to ring them recently but they seem to have moved? I originally tried to buy Wunderlicht seat but unavailable, so tried BAGLUX down the road, they put me in touch with Custom Seats and so on....
