Took off the stock pipes that I fitted for the Mallory track day and refitted the Titainium full race system.

Need to get it out to play soon :lol:

Finished off 2-1 exhaust with straight through Scorpion.
Clearing garage so I can hang a ratchet hoist from the roof beam to change the steering head bearings

The weather is just great.warm and not a cloud to be seen :thumbup:

As the os pipe had a 2/3 restriction in it,at the collector, I dont think it will make any difference.

Did my suspension linkages, it hadn't been checked since I bought the bike last august.
Not knowing was eating away at me, so I finished work early, stopped off for some grease
and a ratchet strap, chucked a crow bar over the side entry door frame, and all in , took
about an hour, everything was nicely greased and bearing surfaces were shiny still !!
Piece of mind, packed a bit more grease in and refitted everything
Quick test run seems good , roll on sunday
