    Anyone know how to do the flapper with the standard exhaust on a 15 abs model?

    Certainly is fella. Got it from here for £35 I think it was. Had to reprofile the mounting bracket to get it sitting right, BUT when I put in the 12 rear shock I found it would also accommodate that without any remodelling! :D Very happy. So either I got lucky and bought a 12-14 one in the beginning or they're all the same.

    I'm looking at one of these on ebay, I think they look better than the R&G one which is around £115, I think for £115 it should look a bit better. The powerbronze looks real nice!

    I bought the hugger, the chain guard and undertray on here second hand and don't think it ALL came to £115! :D
    It is good quality though. Check their website as they have had a few discounts recently. If you check the traders forum on here I think Richard from PB was offering some discount for members.

    Washed the bike then went on a jolly to loomies which was busy as they had a band on, then went onto whiteways which was nice as not to much traffic out considering the weather

    Went for a ride to Mablethorpe, had a cup of tea and road home.

    Oh yes did an embarrassing drop earlier on but luckily no damage. Managed to put the front wheel on a flyer at a junction and when I transferred weight to pull away it went from under me. Managed to pick it up on my own which was lucky as there was no-one else around at the time, well not until I had it back upright.

    My exhaust arrived today, haven't fitted it yet but will post some pics when it's on the bike. Looks decent for less than £200, the welds look good and the overall look is tidy. About to book the service, I haven't rode it this week so I need to do it soon as. Can I book it into my local bike shop who has serviced my bikes for over 10 years or does it have to be a honda dealer? My local shop does stamp the book and log the details Etc.

    Local shops fine to maintain your warranty take it where your happiest , ( they must use genuine parts no cheapo oil filter etc)

    Im thinking for £200 you went down the Delvic ( or similar exhaust) route ?

    Yes, looks decent. My last bike (2007 Yam R1) had 2 MTC cans on it, never heard of MTC at the time but the cans were spot on and only £300 if i remember correctly. I'll try and get some pics uploaded tonight of the Delkevic.

    Do we get a sound check when it's fitted?

    For a ton eighty I wasn't expecting the earth but I was surprised how clean and neat it was. That could all change at 13500 RPM though! Sound is just as important I think.

    Yes no problem. I'll take it to a car park and give it some beef when it's on, hopefully over this weekend. Did you check out the tank pad and dust caps? Took some getting hold of, and keeping hold of. £13 for 4 dust caps and the toe rag kids have had £6.50 worth of them!

    I would never use mini indicators and have never done. They just about see normal size ones, taxi drivers that is.
