And the T'cat is finished, really happy with it too. i hated that grey/black two tone paintjob, it reminded me of a Ford Capri lazer from the 80s, so i had it all painted black

heres a picture

I've gotta say it, the bike looked MUCH better with the dekelvic can on.

Nice job with the fairings though Thumbs Up

The problem with the delkavic can is that its a universal can adapted to fit different bikes so it doesnt fit very well. when i fitted it to the cat it practically rested on the rear brake calliper, if i rotate the link pipe and get it slightly away from the brake then the can doesnt sit straight in the bracket, so i wasn't very impressed with that exhaust.

the micron i think sounds pretty good though, it has a nice burble... you lot will have to wait til you see it on the bike with a new badge and you might change your minds. that said it was only 40 quid so i can afford to take it off and put the delkavic back on (if i really wanted to)

my dreams arent crushed just yet Wink Razz

Nice pics, nice ride.

Beach looks superb.

shes been good fun and ive covered over 3000 miles on her this year, but the time has come to put this old cat up for sale Crying or Very sad unfortunately i dont have space for the cat and an nc30, and its surprisingly costly for me to insure this bike

anyway... i have some pictures on my pc, and seeing as i put so much effort into making this bike 'right' i may as well share

I fucking hate photobucket. A site purely for 3rd party hosting and sharing, after nearly 10 years of use suddenly decides it doesnt allow 3rd party anymore and tries to charge £399.99 for the privelige. That is a joke
