...and dented my end can

is this a new end can, or is it repairable? the dent is on the sleeve only, i've heard of resleeving, is that possible (worthwhile?)?

i don't even have the guys details as i didn't see the damage at first

the guys at Chip-away can work wonders on minor dents, so might be able to help. New outer can be more expensive than new can. What type is it?

it might have been pull-out-able but i've ordered a resleeve/repack kit now - it's an akrapovic can, £134 for the kit! oh well...

p.s. it was a big fist-size dent...

Must be white van man month

White van man tried to run me off the road, as he overtook me ... over a junction. My heinous crime was to stick to the 30 limit in a built up area, with loads of kids playing around on the street. I am obviously a w*nker, because he made that quite clear after he failed to knock me off.



I had to take a very deep breath before carrying on riding.
