Never mind mate, you won't be able to put it with the thirty others you've got :lol: :lol: :lol:

On a similar subject, I bit the bullet and bought the full 550 set that was on ebay last week. It is the non-link type which is right for my bike. The set isn't perfect by any means but it will allow me to finish the project :D Only drawback is that I've got to drive darn sarf tomorrow to pick them up :(

That's interesting? the one on my kettle has the link pipe made up as two stubbs welded in the center of the downpipe not offset forward like that one?

Your dead right.
The later pipes are bent with a different radius,
I think someone has made this up from a late pipe.
Good thing you didn't win it Allan.

That's cos yours is a 750 down pipe and the one that Alan missed is a 550 pipe.

How about paying that then Alan?............Haaar much!
