Michelin Pilot they came with the bike not sure what they are like have not been near a bike on the road in twenty years, suppose it will be like "my first ride" all over again!
Pic of the can on the exhaust I prefered the look of the cone but slowly warming to the more acceptable noise level with the caps. I think if I make another set may go for a 60mm exit instead of 75 and will be able to get more wadding into the exhaust. Whats the e.t.a. of your seat?

Seat comes back today WOO HOO!

Sent Friday to sunny Scotland, recovered and back to me today, and for a great price, I'd like to see many main stream suppliers provide that level of service!

I'm definately agreeing with you on the look of the cones - in my humble opinion the current design looks awful

Still I guess you have neighbours and the police to keep happy

Gave up on the carbon can could not warm to the look of it so made another set of silencers today, feel better about the look of it now.

They are not made to suit std headers though. I cut them up and then increased the headers up to 2" dia.
