Going any better with the filters cleaned?
Captain Starlet
RMS Regular
Really well, sounds better too although I only out new honda filters in. I'm still waiting on the k&n cleaning kit arriving. Got a run with a underseat R1 like @warren had and it was keeping up reasonably well. The sound from the R1 was something else though.

Good stuff! The ‘big bang’ R1? Those sound amazing, one of the lads had one, class thing

Wasn't too sure on R1 models but was fairly certain it was a big bang, got speaking to him at the lights and he said it was a straight though system into the standard cans, sounded incredible. Was great to get a good spin out on the bike on dry roads.

Had this one for a wee while with Akrapovic system, noise was unreal, brilliant handling for a litre bike too.
A mate seen it & tortured me until he got it.

That is beautiful, looks mint. I love gold wheels and underseat exhausts on road bike and . Do you regret selling it?
Captain Starlet

I regret selling mine big time. Would be hard pressed to find another one in the condition it was
Ill get myself a big bang one next when I get bored of the Porsche.

I remeber when you posted it for sale, I really wanted it but I had just bought a 600rr. The Porsche must be great if you want a rip with the family, it's good on the bike but not the same with a pillion

Yeah its definately less effort for going on a trip with the other half thats for sure! Going out for a spin on the bike with a pillion is a very different experience!
The Porsche is broke at the minute anyway so currently missing the bikes even moreso. lol

It was very clean, only 1 owner before me, I do regret letting it go yeah. The mate ended up doing a low side & damaging it. He fixed it & replaced the fairings with Milwaukee replicas & sold it on.

Stripped down to thoroughly clean the bits the power hose can't get with the plastics on.
Replaced front wheel bearings, freed up one piston and thoroughly cleaned and bled front caliper, deep clean on airbox, air filter cleaned and my foam bits to prevent dirt washed and trimmed a bit cleaner.
Chain cleaned, tightened and lubed along with full spanner check.
Oh and fitted my carbon exhaust guard

My mate has a 08 hannspree 600rr. It's the underseat exhaust model. Literally his power commander under the seat and thats it. Maybe get a packet of polos up either side of the PC if you push.lol

The wee 400 is handy, can get a pair of shoes, Jeans and a t shirt in there if you want, means you can get the power ranger suit off and dander about somewhere for a day like a normal person if you head off somewhere
