    What do you use to maintain your headers?

    Just to let you know, was at Flitwick Yamaha this morning and as mine was in for recall headlight wiring, an MT came in with the same Akra pipe as yours. Same Blueing too. Its got Stainless headers and carbon can. Super light so that just proves that the headers are single skin and therefore...

    am I right to assume that headers are not suppoused be so blue (almost black) ?

    Might well be a lighter gauge of Stainless then. Thats where the weight savings come from. The same would still apply as with titanium headers.

    Post your suspension settings here.

    6.5 was what PDQ measured mine at mate. Ive got 8.5 in there now and like you im "Ahem" around the 15 stone [in full riding gear officer !] and it is so much better for me. Didn't think to ask what rate of oil they put in there . They only seem to stock Silkolene in the shop though. I thought...

    am I right to assume that headers are not suppoused be so blue (almost black) ?

    An observation, but you have an Ackrapovich Titanium/ carbon full system exhaust. You will probably find that it is a Titanium full system [with Carbon wrapped silencer] and the downpipes are either thin wall or nor dual walled therefore it will "Tarnish" with Blueing. Its not necessarially an...

    Got my upgrade to Nitron rear shock and Matris fork cartridge on Friday. PDQ. Great service, nice guys and a hell of a different ride back home. For me, its gone from night to day. Larry told me that he measured the fork springs at .65kg strength. Now have .85kg. Ride back home from Slough was a...

    *****aftermarket ecu flash*****

    That's cool. Had a Skorpian exhaust on the Thundercat. Ran it without baffle for a while. Got pulled twice. Left it with the baffle in and got pulled a further 3 times. They didn't like it at all seeing the baffle in and the BS kitemark on ![ which I dutifully pointed out to them. THEN they took...

    Great account of how the bike has improved. Im keeping my standard zorst on at least for the present as the noise police don't particularly care for loud bikes round this way [though strangely enough cars with dustbins for exhausts seem to be exempt ??? Go Figure !] Im paying out for...
