Lewis' R6 5sl

[soccersmyth]

Best of luck with it.
Cracking wee bike,

I've this pipe here R1 98-01 blueflame twin spout can with link pipe £100 & other parts
of an R1 that might tickle your fancy at £60 posted.

You could get lucky and it'll fit straight on.

Worst case is having to buy a link pipe.

Sure keep it in mind

Cheers mate, i'll keep it in mind. First on my todo list is get it on the road, I've an Mot date for Friday so fingers crossed

 

[Chris666]

It'll be sweet, biggest chance of failure is not jamming the brakes hard enough on roller test

 

[mckeown]

Mot date on good friday for a bike?

 

[warren]

I'm in for an MOT on Friday too. Dont enjoy the roller bit I must say

 

[big-lew18]

Never done a bike mot before. Every days a school day

Good old Negan would get a bike through the test no bother.lol

 

[big-lew18]

Bike sailed through the MOT, also taxed it, even though it meant back dating it. But it means I can now get out tomorrow fully legal. Done about 70-80 miles on it today and I think I still have a smile from ear to ear. Automatically addicted. Worse than any drug.lol

 

[Chris666]

^This is exactly what I missed when I sold up the last time.. Never again

 

[big-lew18]

I came home and took my helmet off and the wife was like " what are you smiling about?"

 

[mckeown]

Happy days on the mot! Ill keep an eye out for ya on the road!

 

[mckeown]

@big-lew18 did i pass you on the road between ballynahinch and lisburn there about an hour ago? I was in the car but thought i recognised your bike.

Yes mate was probably me with my mate on a white FZ6. Coming home from Bishopscourt. Probably wobbling everywhere was I?lol

 

[mckeown]

Not at all, yeah the fz6 was just in front! Both bikes looked well!

Cheers mate. The FZ6 looks the part but hes wanting to sell it

 

[big-lew18]

Picked up this genuine seat cowl off fleabay for a bargain during the week. Was badly scuffed and scored but a perfect colour match. A good compound and polish brought out 99% of them but 2 wee scores are too deep. But for the price I'm well chuffed. Next on the list is a slip on of some description. Torn on what brand/style to go for though

 

[Chris666]

Time to open youtube

 

[big-lew18]

Lol. Youtube has been on flat out. Quite fancy an A16 motogp big bore. But not sure on how loud it would be. Sounds awesome on youtube

 

[CR]

Looks great @big-lew18 great night for it to!

I know were your at now! The wife pointed it out when we were passing, she grew up round here.

It's one of those exhausts that will eventually annoy the rider when the novelty wears off. I wear specifically filtered earplugs but can still hear enough of mine (it's a remus the same size as the stock one with no baffle)

It's also a deeper tone being a V-twin so there is that

 

[big-lew18]

Didn't get out anywhere unfortunatly. I'm born and bred here. PM me i'll probably know her, in a neighbourly way.lol

I thought it might be, its more for the look that i like it. Theres also olson performance. But id say its probably similar

 

[Scuba Steve]

[big-lew18]

I've had a nosey through your thread lad. N8ce bike you've there yourself. Whats the 5MT? What year is that?

 

[Scuba Steve]
