No need to apologise for those photos Cobra, she is looking well mean and moody.
But which dentist do you get your mirrors from...?.

Been a long time since I was down Ipswich way. Is that Foxs Marina on the other side there?
I spent many an hour down there in the freezin' bleedin Winter with the rigging moaning in the wind, working on brand new Oyster yachts.
Once I was trying to get sealer to go off on a 14 ton lead keel at about nine below zero or somthing...So the boss sent me a fan heater out of the office to warm it up..??..

Thanks for reminding me of happy memories..

Hi Gazza

I worked at Bob Spalding for a few weeks but the toerag who trades under that name
Messed up paying me (ie. he didnt)
So that was my brief foray into civvie marina work.
Freezing cold in winter and sunstroke in summer doing white gelcoat repairs (snowblind!)

Mirrors are pushbike jobbies modified to fit
Busch & Muller "cyclestar"
I like them as they are composite and ball & socket so if you clip a wing mirror while filtering they just ping off and dont pull on the bars.

Roll on spring
Still trying to find a corse bodykit

But did score a pearl white glossy front mudguard new on eBay.it
So have a complete pearl white kit now, all 5 parts

Hi All

Termis on

3 times heavier than my Homemade Akrapovic and seemingly louder by quite a margin.
I expected the Termis to be light but feel only just lighter than the standard can.

Will go for a decent spin before I decide if I will keep them or sell them

How did you stick the tax disc on and keep it waterproof...

Also what do you pay for a paint job on one of those

Mustard - I have just bought the "performance seat" lets just say I wish I could have seen it before I parted with my money. Seriously dissapointed with the quality and the fit for the price that it is. I've had to remove the tongue pads that slide under the tank just to get it to fit, when you look underneath (I know you dont see it when its on) its been thrown together. The seat unit is the same part number as stock with just a little foam removed from where the pillion would be. It is no lighter than stock.

I cant comment on the comfort side as I've not been out on it after I fitted it. But dont feel left out! I'm sure you can spend £649 more wisely than i did!!

The cowl can be removed just like the stock item - I've not had chance to take any pics yet, I'll post them when I have

I have to say after all the different pipes you've had those Termis look the best to me.
