Well done mate, really pleased you nailed it, think you get an A plus for effort, same again for being stubborn enough not to let it go.
Its clear that at least one person needs ******* with a ******** bat for thier lies and sins.
Im sure the battle is not entirely won from the sounds of your report but there's a beer with your name on it in Sams bar

Odd... he still insists this engine ran...
Some serious remapping would be needed and it would sound like a big single with an echo! I don't get it at all and don't really care any more!
Thanks for the group hugs. Just got the suspension links to switch out as they've seized... and I'm on the road again!
Need tyres too... been running Road 3s for forever but the Road 4s sound even better. I've no real need to change as I'm no head-banger on the road but even longer life and better wet weather performance is amazing.
I've still got to replace my cans after the butchers on Brittany Ferries snapped the side stand back in March... anybody heard what these are like? Got clearance from BF to spend the dosh - just not had it to spare to date.

It was running before he f**ked with it. Then it didn't run.
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Well, they're Fuel cans, prob good but pricey.
Some really nice cans on ebay for less but my tastes may differ from yours !
nice to hear you are now looking at the end result rather than getting rid

Cost matters not - they're courtesy of Brittany Ferries!

I have the fuel titanium ovals with standard outlet on mine, they weigh nowt, look good and sound nice and deep but not too loud with baffles in (baffles out and I set off car alarms in car parks!). They are really well made and come with free Kendal mint cake

Well, considering Brittany Ferries are paying and they have been rated by Control, your finger must be ready to click on 'buy now'.

Another thumbs up for Fuel cans - well made, sound great, look great. I went for the stainless steel Midi ovals and was well impressed with the build quality.
