Nige,deffo 45-50.when i ordered them off blueflame the guy brought 45-50 and 50-50 link pipes with him(they are about 20miles from me,coz i told him it was a 2000 748r, he wasn't sure on link pipe size).the 50-50 swam on the uprights,the 45-50 were a really tight fit,i had to really wiggle/waggle(tech term!!) them to get them to fit.Have you cleaned inside the link pipes?

maybe i ought to try and do it in the house instead of a cold damp garage!! but somehow i think that won't be too popular

but i have a plan b !! the dealer who fitted my tyres has offered to fit the pipes for me and dyno it as well

Try heating them up in the oven for 1/2 hour, just so they expand a bit.won't upset to many people then!!
