That's interesting I had Higgspeeds on mine before and loved the sound but the ground clearance was poor and they kept touching down so took them off, can't wait to see them on your bike cheers Gladders

That's interesting to hear. Do you know what needed to be changed to get more clearance and where did they drag? Was it just on the outer pipe on the right or did both sides drag?

It was mainly the outer right pipe but the left would also drag if pushing on a bit, they just needed to be tucked in and up a bit

Absolutely stunning. Like a two-stroke Ducati Monster (my other motorcycle love) - incidentally is that a Ducati front end & swingarm? Or Honda swingarm?
