Hello all

Thought I'd share a few photos of my 04 S4R after its recent rebuild. It got run over while in at my local dealer for a service. Decided on a new paint scheme, originally a red/grey/white wheels, then a red/red now white/red

.....and the little tricolore touch on the seat cowl.
That exhaust is the absolute business too, oh yes indeedy.
The open belts scare me, though.. just one little stone........

As I recall Dave Woods did a lot of the work.

What I think Stewart is trying to say is " how much does it weigh?"

Is the exhaust a special then, or what ?
Thats exactly what I had in mind for my M750...until someone made me an offer that I couldn't refuse on some hi-level termis.
The hankering still remains, though.

Looking good mate. Have you managed to catch up with our Ryan who moved over there this summer gone.

Indeed, the exhaust is titanium and it has a 220mm rear brake disc. Shaun? wanted a light bike.

I bought a swing arm off him which I later sold to Albie

No I haven't seen or heard of Ryan. I haven't been on the site much lately either to see what he is up to.

It's a custom titanium system made by Brad Evens (i think that was his name). Dave Wood twisted his arm to make it as he no longer enjoys making exhausts. He's in Aylesbury too and was a fabricator for K Roberts and other race teams. It is a lovely bit of bling, weighs nothing. It is a little loud but not obscene.

I have a couple more mods to sort and I will be calling it quits. The rear brake now has no power, smaller dia disk and tiny brembo race caliper was not a good combination. I have another caliper and looking for a floating disk to pair it with. I want to change the mount to be above the disk rather than under so will need to make a custom caliper bracket.

The final job will be to make a bracket for the exhaust as Brad mounted the the exhaust onto the back of the "adjustable" rear set foot peg....... Makes it a little un-adjustable.

Hopefully will get these sorted this winter.
