I have my eye on the long oval Titanium can with carbon end piece - should look absolutely fab :-*
Or maybe I should better go for the carbon variety? :-\

Carbon fiber cools more quickly and is sexy but can deteriorate more quickly over time compared to stainless or ti.

The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it.

Found a picture of a silver GTR with a beowulf warrior in mirror finish,that where really nice.
If I'm removing the flies I have to get a Power Commander with a matching map
Did not find any mapping for beowulf on the Power Commander home site.
Are there any of the other mapping listed there, that i can use?
Do not have a dynocentre nearby.

Looks great, Winston.
I wonder if the black would go with my green 2011, though?
Probably the mirror finished or coloured Ti or the carbon might look better on the green bike.
I reckon it definitely looks better with the carbon end cone.

How much work is involved to swap?

The later you brake the longer you go fast.

About a 20 minute job if you can use a spanner - 30 if you can't!

I chose black finish as it is similar to OEM finish and subtle.  Carbon end can is the icing IMO!

What about the pollution caused by generating the electricity to run an electric bike ....it would be green'er' if you had solar panels on your roof producing the energy to charge the bike...plus what is the 'environmental cost' of the cells?.... whilst i am sure that electric bikes are less polluting that standard combustion engines...i don't think they are as green as many would like to think..... the basic premise holds true that no matter how you go about it, there is an environmental price to be paid however you generate energy! ::)
Using alternative sources of energy seems to be very expensive..But still we need to use these sources in order to solve energy crisis.
