So, the 'strada's settled in, I'm just back from a 2420 mile run through France to the Catalunya GP, some Pyrenees fun, San Sebastian & Bilbao. One niggle is the bloody exhaust valve. I'm running a Termi shorty carbon end can, and wonder what my options are for a system which avoids the valve altogether.

It's stuck shut a few times over the winter, and just once on the trip, on the last day leaving San Sebastian. Sorted it at the roadside with a squirt of chain lube, but I'm not prepared to live with the possibility that it might shut down and dramatically reduce the horses without notice.

Anyone have any suggestions? Any recommended local benders who've made a full system for the 1200S?
