Cat C Bike

Only round the block,I got nothing on it ATM,it felt alright

@craig you'll hear it when I get a louder can on it

I'll probably lay it up till next summer

Edit: lights were brill,a car pulled over n let me pass instantly,I'd get some,they are £16 now I paid £20

It felt a bit slow compared to my 98 zx6r but I only went round the block and it hadn't warmed up properly,plus I got a loud no baffle can on that so it could be not hearing a loud pipe

I need to use it everyday to decide yet whether to keep or not

fitted new solo seat and exhaust arrived yesterday,cant fit it though as it wont fit to the collector box due to the graphite seal being too narrow,need to pickup a link pipe

£3770 inc the extras,exhaust can,hid lights,seat cowel,and radiator guard

£3500 without those

The exhaust has been damaged,shortened but looks so good you can't tell tbf,at £130 I couldn't resist,seat cowel was a cheap Chinese one for £17

To fit the can to the cat/box I'd need a smaller gasket and its £40,but I can get a decat link pipe for £49 so I'll get that instead and remove the catalytic converter

Yeah and I think it will be complete then

Do you run with the baffle out on your akro Benji? I tried it and it sounded nice, but I couldn't get a proper seal yet

bought some sticky pads and stuck the ballast to the inside of the side fairing out of sight,still waiting on a pair of pillion footpegs from hong kong and ill probably order a decat pipe on Thursday

ordered some pop connectors aswell for the various plastic inner fairing parts as it was missing those
 
still waiting on some link pipes to be made up,guy said he needs to make a batch up on a mandrel,that was over a week ago:(

so frustrating as I wanna hear this akra properly
 
Did you decide if you're going to de-cat her?


I was ill last weekend so didn't get around to recording a little video for you to wet your appetite, might get around to it this weekend ;) just to tease.

Yeah its the decat pipe I need,the chap who makes them needs to make another batch,the cat chokes the bike plus its heavy so best to remove it tbh

Yes, in the interests of not stressing the engine with all of that extra weight ;)

Edit: I'm not saying your fat btw
 
Wazza, does she burble/crack/pop on the over-rev as standard?

I bought my bike with the full race arka already installed so not sure if its the exhaust or standard, however the liftoff sound from 7-5000rpm and then down to 3000rpm she pops spits and crackles all over the place.

My neighbours haven't really spoken to me since I got her but I'm not too fussed, she'll be wrapped up for winter soon :(
 
No it doesn't with standard pipe,can on

With a race can on though they do normally pop n crackle like that
