Paul wrote:Well, I took a test ride on the damp roads around S*C this morning and bought their red F800S demonstrator. Just over 4k on the clock and a handy £1800 saving on list price. I added on a top box and tank bag and will be collecting it on Saturday morning. They had the Remus pipes in stock but not the Akrapovic. I'll wait until I see the Akrapovic in the flesh before deciding whether to splash some cash or not.

Nice one Paul :)

I'd wait for the Akra pipe - Remus stuff, as we know, is well made but the Akrapovic gear is in another league. Had a Ti can on my Speed Triple which was a work of art.

Steve,

I softened her up with a weekend in Prague and some sickeningly expensive jewellery... It wasn't too hard a sell in the end and I used the "commuting to work in the SE" card to great effect :wink:

Paul.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
