You need to remove the gasket otherwise it wont fit properly.
No sealant is needed with the SC Project exhausts.

Who had a Gladius on here? I remember someone switched to Renthals shortly after I did? There was someone on here, but I can't remember at the top of my head...
I have a Gladius... I bought the Renthal bar but didn't install it yet.

Sorry clovis, know what you mean by gasket now. Yeah you don't need that.
I don't know how different the s.c exhaust is to the remus, but I did need sealant. A fella who works on the trains give me the stuff. It smells and stinks when you first put it on and sets, but I have no exhaust leaks. Just with the clamp, It wasn't enough for a 100% seal. That's my experience anyway.
QS is amazing! A little jerky under 4k, but they are ment to be used with wide open throttle. Plus, they are a performance mod, not for convince. Worth the £170, fun, and sound amazing with a loud can.

Anyone recommend a strong degreaser for washing bikes? Something that will cut through a few months worth of grease and road crap, and something cheap as I'll use a fair bit of it on the CB400
Don't really want to waste £20 with of sdoc100 on it!!
If I can pick it up locally even better, there must be some pound shop/Halfords brand stuff that does to the job well.
Elbow grease : best £1 you can spend on any cleaning product.
That is the real name of the product not a wind up.

I know
It was the old joke to play on the apprentice, send them to the store for some elbow grease or various other items. Doesn't work now they've made it into an actual product though!!

Which one did you go for? Genuine triumph? I had the translogic one but it cost me £300.

I got a genuine triumph one.. I got mine from a dayatona 675r, it's the same one used on the rx model.
Would you like to make some profit of your standard handlebars? It'll motivate you to swap your bars in the process.

If you don't mind, I'm only interested in the standard OEM Bars that go on SV's, Bandit's, Hornets etc. They're all the same pretty much.

He has loads of stuff, do you have a part number or the years of bikes you want to be looked at, or just SV bars? Is yours a K5?
I'll give him a ring tomorrow mate
Second hand?
I had this one but don't want to pay £300 again.

They're all the same, I think even the curvy even had them. So any Naked SV up to whenever they made them. I spoke to Suzuki today, as they have a little warehouse and said all the bars are pretty much the same from bandits, SVs to Hornets etc.He has loads of stuff, do you have a part number or the years of bikes you want to be looked at, or just SV bars?

Could you also ask him about ZX10R 06-07 Rear Shock? If not possibly ZX6R 04-05. TA!
Just put gentle pressure on the gear lever, shut throttle and the gear will pop in on its own. Its really easy to do clutchless upshifts. Same with Rev Matching on downshifts...

That's mine basically. Yeah second hand.
Edit: Had fun trying to get the screw caps on the front calipers off getting to the caliper retaining pins. The flat head was butchering it, gave up. Watching TV and remembered I have impact driver, came out no problem. Put loads of copper grease on them and put them back in. Can happily sort front brakes out at a later date.
