Any one know what he's replaced it with.

I'm not going to bid too high, but can't resist a bargin, plus need to concentrate on the RC.

I recently had a new S/S exhaust made and fitted for £400 for my 400

We replaced the centre box with a straight thru pipe which has the added advantage
that I no longer "bottom-out" on the local country roads

There is a small silencer near the fuel tank (fitted for heat reduction reasons)
that I am still contemplating replacing with just a straight thru pipe
and then a nice Cherry-bomb lengthways across the back (which also looks great)

I am more than happy with the job that Exhausts UK in Sheffield did for me.

As I say the only dilemma is whether I get them to take off the small silencer
although they did advise it would then be too noisy on longer runs

Cheers
Richard

Hi Allan

They went over the axle (which is what took longest)

got out bid in the last 10 seconds frown
Have to scrap that plan,

As was going to put the SS one of the 400SE and the 400SE ones was going to chop up and fit to the RC.

FINALLY I have worked out how to post pics so here goes

The old exhaust/rear end


The old centre box


and



The New Back end inc Cherry Bomb


new centre pipe (note no silencer)

Much better ground clearance on country road blasts

Over the rear axle

and


Debating where to take this silencer off


It is quite loud and the small silencer was suggested where the exhaust passes near the fuel tank

Hope the pictures are good and helpful

Cheers
