Well today was nearly my birthday as 2 pressies to pick up and still more to come soon.
I picked up my brand spanking new Termignonis and kit all in a nice box in bags which I paid £670 for. A bargain for them and they are now fitted but not the ECU or airfilter. I attempted to see but the limited time I had , it seems its a tank off job. I will get Pro Twins or maybe the local guys in strood maybe .
I also got the carbon fibre headlamp cover on. Ab fab and its a looking better everytime I go in the garage. Now I need that tail tidy.
Im leaving the decibel killers in for now.The looks enough for me at moment.

All of a sudden having one bike is getting easier. I dont have a choice and dont feel guilty .

Well the rest of the exhaust kit is being fitted this saturday locally down the garage that someone recommended. Pro Team ducati in strood. I take it this is ok as its only exhausts.

I dont really fancy even if I know I can do it , take off the tank and fit new airfilter and ecu for someone to plug the machine in and tweak it. Who designed this bike that needs a tank removing for an airfilter change

Anyhow its good to give some business locally. They wont service bikes under 2 years old for the warranty.

Will run fine without them,all other exhaust run without them! the difference they make is very small but will smooth things out and stop the exhaust from closing.the setup bit is only the throttle position sensor if adjustment is required.oh and dont put the db killers in thats just rude !!

Yes I probs will whip them out.

I just had an email back from EVOTECH the tail tidy for monster 696/1100. I wasnt sure what you got for your buck and they kindly sent me some pics. Looks a decent job for £80.

I can then spend the saved money on.......................

two pressies today yayyyy !!!

i may not be best pleased with my predicament but 2 pressies came today. my carbon oil cooler shrouds which i must say very nice indeed. carbon and colour match very good. and also got my tank top sticker m1100s which was lacking from the dp performance upgrade. looks proper job now thats on.

so will be busy putting stuff on soon one handed when bike comes back. they are only waiting for gear lever. i think its coming from moto rapido's.
