of course - should have guessed ! 2nd pic is of your new prescription, can't beat those big suppositories can you eh !!!! guaranteed to clean you out and probably provide the best weight removing mod you'd ever get and all for about £6.50 lol.....

Neil,

Well done. It's a bit more tham a seat though

I had a bit of luck, and while looking at the other bits in the post, was offered a few nice bits of carbon, well a brand new, factory race set....

008. Here's a clue to what I was actually looking for

yes the 2nd (original) pic is obviously of some rubbers that slide over the springs - oh god can't believe I'm getting sucked into this anorak stuff...not sure who's sadder - you for posting it up or me for answering...lol

Neil,

Full anorak and trainspotting rights to you, sir.

Yep, the GiCaMoto Spaghetti I have is very, very nice, but I wanted a system with a 50mm header to better suit the tuned 996 motor.

Happy Christmas to me.

Rgds,

Rob - Not stopped smiling yet, either.......

Nice find. Where did you get it? Do they have any more exhaust parts or bodywork for sale?

Brian

The guy had another set of skins, but he was going to use that bodywork on one of his 888s this winter.

Rgds,

Rob, was this little lot via Brett & co at Pro Twins by any chance ?? I'm guessing at this as I know they have a manufacturing source for the exhausts and the bodywork.
cheers

Rob, I'm pleased that I'm not your dentist mate - it's hard work getting those teeth out, lol
Have you decided on colours for the panels yet ? You need to put some samples up as teasers, can't beat a bit of winter guesswork...

Mate,looks good.You Lucky,lucky man.Do you not feel that the JHP air filter will get rid of the extra space you've just created in the airbox?Have you fitted it yet(the airbox?).

Rob

You will be delighted to know that I have it on first hand authority that Termigoni are no longer making any Viper / Spagetti Exhaust systems for the 888 / 926 no matter who you are or what back door you choose to use. I think it very fair to say that you have a great piece of kit there and the prices are only going one way.

it's not only rob who will be delighted to hear that! i bought my system about 18 months ago and the amount of dust on and in the box was amazing, i reckon i paid an extra $10 freight for the weight of that alone! of course the exhaust doesn't weigh much more, hey rob.....
