Did a little more today .
Fixed the cans where I want them.
Also sorted the rear electrics out .
It's amazing how long a few little jobs can take !.

i like the cans where they turn in towards the back of the bike. Once the links are made they will look great.

Its got me toying with some mods for my exhaust.
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!

Looking great Lloydie, the cans are spot on. Really work well with the seat!
If it's broken; should it move? Yes: Use WD40 No: Use cable ties. Now it's fixed!
