Hey people Mr. Green

So tonight i've begun planning a bandit 600 project for the Mrs as she's etching close to finishing her DAS and wants her bike of choice to stick out from the crowd.

So far i've planned out how to get the bandit exhaust up and under the seat without having to remove to much of the original bodywork.

She doesn't want a home made exhaust, she wants something not to expensive but with enough grumble to at least alert people of her presence.

Max budget for exhaust: £250-300
Any links or shops some of you go to for exhausts that won't leave me penniless?

I'm checking ebay every 1-2 days so far but i thought i should post this up before i forget ...again...

Thanks Karma

https://www.banditmaniashop.co.uk/bandit-600--1200-single-high-level-pipework-with-bracket-808-p.asp

So that's £96 for the link pipe, leaving £205 to get a collector gasket and end can with strap, IIRC Beowulf can do custom link pipes and might do a deal with one of their cans.
Worth a phone call.

Bandit mania? Wowie Wow!
i hadn't a clue a website like this existed, 40 quid for some LED tail lights! I've seen some of those for around 100-200 =/

Beowulf can's do sound pretty orgasmic..

Thanks for the reply Exclamation Exclamation

Why not fit some twin headlights to make it really individual, like every other bandit on the road.
