Just been looking at these on fleabay...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... :IT&ih=010

Listing says they only fit up to 2002 bikes - anybody know what the difference is because I thought they were all the same

I'm 99% sure they'll fit but their fitment lists of the falco probably shows they stopped making them in '02? (all the newer registered ones have been stood in fields hence the 2tone rust colours)

Buy them and stick them back on ebay ( but dont mention the 02 bit ) if they dont fit

I'm almost 100% certain, they would fit also. The Falco was never altered in the basic frame - sub frame design during it's production run

Mind you as Pierre says if they dont fit (I'd be bloody amazed if they didn't) you can always re-sell em

That's pretty much what I thought. Pity they're all shiny and stainless but I suppose you can't really complain at that price

Shirley you can paint them? Used to paint my mini exhaust and that worked ok, or use wire wool on them for the brushed stainless/titanium look? Seal the ends and powercoat them? I dont like shiney either

Or, if you're flush with cash, this is the way to do them

Camcoat

Not sure about paint but Idid think about the brushed effect - just don't want to try it and end up making a mess of a brand new pair of cans. Probably end up doing something like that though because carbon or titanium cans cost so much more.

And don't call me Shirley

Getting a bit concerned now, there's about a day left on the auction and not one person bidding on them even at that price. Does everyone else know something i don't?

You won't get em cheap if you keep alerting everyone to em you know

Bear in mind the ad isn't a good one, so theres probably less watchers, also the last couple of hours will show if anyone else is interested in em

I never bid on anything until the last 30 secs or so, as I can't figure why I should alert everyone to the fact I could be interested? So I think there's a bit of confusion (the ad isn't very accurate) and there are potential bidders who will come in at the death (so to speak)

Keep your powder dry and have a last gasp bid, That way if your best price doesn't win you don't get dragged into bidding more than you wanted to pay

Here endeth my eBay bidding thoughts (sorry, just can't understand people who bid with 9 days to go that's all)

Yeah, my thought exactly on the whole ebay thing and generally I would usually keep it as quiet as possible however i can't believe that no-one's even put the opening bid in yet.

Just got visions of buying what i think of a bargain then when I come here to gloat to evryone about it seeing a new post entitled "Look what this silly twonk bought off fleabay..."

"Look what this silly twonk bought off fleabay..."

Dont worry, that markets already cornered :)

Just dont do the usual spur-of-the-moment thing and bid more than they are worth, or what you can get the fuel/beowulf cans for cos at the end of the day theyre only tubes of stainless with baffles inside.

Maybe they only fit honda falcos

Oh well backmarker - your wish has been granted - someone has bid on them !!

They look good to me but I agree with Pierre's comments about spending too much. Already up to £120.

Don't understand all the comments on there about up to 2002 models only

back_marker · #14 Post by **back_marker** » Tue Oct 16, 2007 3:38 pm

Kerching!

Got back from along weekend away to find that by some miracle the high bid I put in before I went away was more than enough. Won them for the princely sum of 156 squid plus a tenner postage. Just waiting for them to turn up and we'll see how good they are.

(Braces self for "

You Paid How Much???????

Beats me. Unless they changed the design of the collector, maybe changed the bore of the collector outlets, but i cant remember Jorge ever mentioning it at Renegade. I know the collector changed on the RSV when they brought the Factory out, but the engine was fettled then too.Cant remember a change to the Falco? Be interesting to find out. Maybe he's just covering his bases as he only had a pre 2002 model or something.
