  1. The Accosatto is a straight swap, It fits beside the OE switchgear fine,

    After i got the 1199 clip ons the OE switchgear was stopping me putting the master cylinders where i wanted so i had to fit the BSD switches.

  2. bikes MOT ran out last week and I've just got back from Copenhagen, so a blast out on the bike was a no go. sneaked off to work last night and got the cf belly pan fitted.
    if wife doesn't start kicking off, i'll get the mirror extenders on as well.

  5. In all honesty I don't know but I'm sure someone will be along to tell you.

    I'd try and fund an unscrupulous back street garage who'll pass any old shit for ten bob and a blackies egg. And it'll be job jobbed.

    There'll be loads in Brighouse ;)

  6. They only give advisory for a noisy exhaust. Not a failure is my understanding. I had slash cuts on mine during mot. No trubbs.

  8. there is no decibel meter in an mot station but there is a section on it. mot testers discretion. but obviously you can appeal.

  10. Just make sure it doesn't say 'not for road use' or 'race use only' on the cans

    If it does a bit of tape well placed works

  12. Got it! Just got back now. Front main beam lowered and that's it.
    Pulled out, went round the corner to exit the trading estate and came across a little unit selling ti bolts, shorty levers, crash bobbins and loads of other bits. He's also cash happy! If he has something on eBay for, say £40. He'd accept £30 cash. Makes / turns loads of bits to order as well.
