How hot are the police round your area for dodgy plates? That's a 'display' plate. I guess if you're not being a dick they wont care much.
Bike is looking good.
Is that tail piece lined up properly? ____________________ Honda CBF125 ➝ NC700X

Probably not, it was interfered with and loosened off in my attempt to fit the grab rail. It was at about that point that I decided to
reassemble, but I didn't look to see if it was straight or not. I'll have a jiggle of the numberplate hanger when I get it home
later, there's bound to be some adjustment. Besides, I had to ride it in the wet today so it will be getting a good clean.
The plate is 8x7 so only an inch undersized, touch wood not too many old bill around my way sofor now it stays. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Not quite as much weight as that. But just under 4 kilos. Without mapping apparently Yamaha/Akrapovic
who developed the system together say I'll see gains of +5.1kw(@9850rpm) +6.4NM(@5150rpm) and -3.8kg weight.
Theres a more arty farty looking titanium (wrapped, S/S headers) system but that was was just shy of a grand
This one was dear enough thanks. Besides, they never show the other side of the titanium coated exhaust in any pics as
it is as unevenly shaped and ugly as the stock pipe just with a nicer finish. There's also forum talk of them bottoming out
at speed on bad roads with that pipe too.

Yamaha say no mapping needed, and to be honest it's not like I need any extra powaaah. I just wanted to make it noisy.
I may go out slip the silencer off and whip the baffle out a bit later. It's awkward to do on bike so it will need me to get the
thing in bits. Once I'm out of warranty period I'll have it flashed. It was an official approved warranty friendly part installed
by the supplying main dealer, I'm not too fussed about extracting every last bit of power out. It's said I should change the 02
setting for each cylinder to 14 which is optimum for that pipe apparently. It's something I can do myself using the
speedo display console, I may give that a whirl and see if it feels any better. It's easy enough to put back to stock. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Suits the bike better in carbon anyway, imo.
