what cans + mods

can anyone recommend giannelli exhausts?
they are slighty cheaper than akro's or termi's and look lush

and if i fit road legal cans to my 620 will i have to change anything else (air filter etc)?

I think Giannelli supplied Duke race bikes back in the 70's.

they certainly did do dukes in 1970's.
i watched moto gp last year and their advertising is round most of the circuits.
the cans look quality but until you get feedback its a lot of money to fork out without knowing that there a class act

I thought they did stroker pipes for scooters to make them sound like an angry wasp

Hi Celt.

As long as you just swap one set of road legal silencers for another set and do no other modifications then there should be no need for any other modifications.

Cheers.

Lee.

(P.S. The cans look great!)

You're obviously young enough to have missed unrestricted mopeds! Me? I had a FS1E with a Roberts paint job, tweak carb, modded disc valve and a moderate port job that did 60mph!! Aprt from the Monster, this was the the best fun I've had on two wheels.

Just don't ask what happened to it.....

Nick

it wasn't too bad actually, used to eat spark plugs and did a pisto or two but actually lasted about a year before I flogged it.

Or nearly flogged it.......
