    Hmmm Pits up North have been closed for years & very little chimney work around due to Natural gas.....!

    However, back on topic It's personal choice & budget for which type of end can your after for me it's Mivv GP, but they are made by pasta eating, wine drinking, italians :[/quote]


    Hence why they're making cheapo cans or down here nicking our jobs.

    I've actually been to Beowulf, oh and Orange cycles, seeing as i spent the first 25 years of my life within a mile of there :P Still reckon they and Fuel cans just look like a cheapo can.

    which would be worth more than the bike!

    If it was me, i'd stick with what you've got. The money would be much better spent on making sure it's running properly.
    Don't want to needlessly spend your money on a can only to not be able to pay for the next service or M.O.T

    Got my can off the bay from a main dealer ex-demo for £100 so there are a few bargains to be had

    Totally agree. Race pipe, not loud pipe. Improve performance, not noise (that's just a by-product)...

    I'm no expert but from what I've seen a Akropovic is worth a lot of money second hand, so it may cost a lot to start with but you'll get a lot of your money back when you've finished playing with it

    As a matter of interest, is it legal to remove the baffle from the Akropovic when used on the road?

    Just someone said to me that my Scorpion would sound sweeter with the baffle removed.
