Yes , theres plenty of clearance behind, and also the end of the Can won't burn the pillions bum, as its just far enough behind them....

They won't be going back on though as I don't like riding 2up.. :D

Gedge-

sorry for all the questions but-

I am trying to order a stainless oval slip-on from Renegade to look like yours, Gedge - they will likely add it to their catalog.

Jorge at Renegade first wants to know if the exhaust pulse is making your turn indicator get too hot?

I rode for about half an hour after it was fitted and although you could feel the warmth on the indcator it was not actually hot.. I will probably move it eventually though just to be safe... :)

Haven't been out since I picked it up as the weather here has been absolutely foul. I am hoping to get a long ride on Sunday so I may be able to give a more informed opinion then :D

let us know how that signal fares after a good flog. I am anxious to remove that recycled toaster oven from my bikes right rear flank.

I went out Sunday for an all day blast through the new forest. I did about 100 miles and the indicator and the side panel didn't show any sign of being affected by the heat :-) Bike goes just as well although I doubt it has given it any more power. Sounds good with the pipe closer to your ears :-D

Don't notice the power improvement ??? W/o Jetting you should still feel some...... the original system is pretty restrictive......????

What I meant was... I have had the new can fitted for some time, made a big difference.. rerouting the link pipe that was what made no additional difference , if you get my drift...

I had hoped that a shorter link might smooth the flow and bring a little bit more power but I dont think it did... :shock:


PS have any of you USguys tried those Brisk spark plugs in your baggy? some forums are raving about the extra power ( although there are also a couple of scare stories Anyone got any personal experience as I have just ordered a couple to try 8)
