You didn't hear the noise it made.

I have a couple of GoPro vids, but in true GoPro style, the sound's a bit shit.

I'll be drilling my housing out for a proper mic in the next week or so.

Cameras never do them justice; they lack that low down rumble!

I was always a fan of the black one before, but that colour combination is superb.

I wanted the triple, but it's out of my price range for now I think. Very Happy

Between 5k and 3k on the overrrun it was just banging as the unburnt fuel was igniting in the exhaust. I guess there must be some emissions gubbins making it do it. Doesn't do it on the stock cans, does with the Arrow half system. If you have a speed trip, you need these cans in your life.

That colour is epic. Matt must be a nightmare to keep clean.

Gorgeous bike! Those look very much like the gates to Burghley House in Stamford...

The bike is remapped when those cans are fitted, the banging and popping is a byproduct of that. If it had a low 3-1 pipe fitted you would get blue flames out the exhaust on downshifts.

OR akras.

It's their demonstrator, they have an 06 for sale there too. The older round headlight model.

What Camera setup did you use to get those pics?

I've been trying to get similar of my street triple but I'm not having much luck, any tips on close up pics ?

cheers

Canon 1D Mark II, 25-105mm f/4.5 L, Circular Polarising filter. Thumbs Up

Don't need high end kit to get good photos though.
