Wide as a bloody dump truck!

Kwikasfuki that pic was taken in the blackmountains on the A4069 Llangadog Carmarthenshire :smiley: it was part of our 3 night 4 day tour of northwales,tenby,ilfracombe,landsend and torquay trip last july :smiley:

for those you don't recognize the location of the next 2 pics, they where taken at the ponderosa north wales which was our first stop for breakfast :smiley: then on to the b&b in tenby for our first stop over.

Hi Sebastian.. No, Acropovic didn't make a pipe for the GTR this is one that I modified so that it fitted...it sounded really good  :yes:

I can't remember which bike the end can was designed for..it could have been for a ZZR

At the time I was asked by 
http://www.calsportbike.com/    If I would attempt to fit the acropovis end can with a Remus intermediate pipe.

I managed, quite easily, to fit the two together and provided Calsport with photographs of the modification...however it never became popular and was not offered for sale...what a shame  :wacko:

I'm aware of the OEM  accessory options, in fact I had a brace of them on my ZZR1400, pictures of which I lost some time ago  :embarrassed:

I obviously didn't explain myself clearly in my previous post, ooops.  I was actually referring to the pipes that were available in the aftermarket, specifically from Calsport  :wink:
