Two nice packages on the same day sitting on the living room floor when I came home last night. The first was a Blueflame Evo exhaust which i got on in 10 minutes and sounds great (not taken the baffle out yet) and it looks good (so far) against my matt black survival bike tiger (God i was bored on the winternights, only modding me bike and '24 -series 4' kept me from crawling the walls)

secondly, renthal streetfighter bars (no.789) to lower the handlebars a touch. took around 45 min to get on as I had to drill two small holes for the retaining lugs on the far inside of the switchgear (Moving switchgear is a MOT failure i've been told). The bars are red and although about the same width as stock (or near) they look a bit narrower. Like what slash said in a previous handlebar topic the handling now is a vast improvement. A worthy mod methinks, and if they are too low some risers will cure this (they have also cured my riding postion induced bad back too, i hope!)

I also made a new bashplate out of checkerplate steel over the weekend and sprayed matt black.

I would post some photos so could someone tell me how.
