want to buy a new end can for the bandit 6 (got the standard one on at the moment)

I don't want to spend a hell of alot, so I've been looking at used ones on ebay. however, the viper and fuel cans are quite cheap and I've heard good reviews of them.

now, I could either just buy myself a cheap one that will suffice, or I could buy a nicer one and sell my standard one to claim back some of the money and not hurt my wallet as badly.

if I sold the standard one then I would obviously get an e-marked road legal one so it would pass an MOT and satsify the police etc.

any advice?

cheers

How does the collector box look, If its still on its first standard exaust/downpipes that will rust away to buggery soon. So if you can afford it Stainless Steel downpipes would be a good idea.

I have also heard good things about Fuel Cans, 100 quid cant be bad...

type_mo on here has a end can for sale give him a PM

cheers don. the the edges of the collector box look a tad rusty, but at the moment, I cant afford £300 for a new system. and it will be a long time before I can.

you dont have to be e marked any more, and you can buy bands even if your can has not for road use printed on it.
ive go a motocross can on my bike, not only is it about 1/10th the weight its also only cost me 30quid posted from ebay.

a can is a can, you're not going to gain or lose any real amount of power buying 1 brand from another, so buy the can you like the look of the most, not the brand that made it.

any way heres mine, a good 30quid spend if i say so myself
