Those headers look really good, is the pan being painted to match the bike or do you have a paint scheme for the bike?

Hi
Looks great. What headers are they?
I have a hp2s bellypan which came with my race kit which I can't fit due to having a full akrapovic system!!!
Wanna buy a carbon ilmberger hugger? I notice you don't have one!!
All the best
Gus

Thanks for all your comments

The paint colour is yellow again with a plain carbon front no transfers

Hi gus

The headers were made by nigel at sandbar through a guy that's doing the hp2 headers make unknown I guess , mint job though welds and pipe work superb engine sounds very crisp even though on standard end can was thinking about the aka for the end but unsure it will fit headers.

I really like the original design of the end can might have it custom stripped and reworked for a better sound unsure as the choices are limited for the end can. Thanks for offer on the hugger unfortunately have one in the wings thanks though!


Ps mint photos you posted of the hp2 racing best of luck going forward

If the new headers were made to fit the original silencer then ALL slip on pipes will fit. There's a few makes out there, some maybe more obscure than others. The Akrapovic (expensive) Zard (mid priced) spring to mind, but if you like the look of the original you could do some alterations, and there is a carbon shroud to fit the original pipe, but good luck with whatever you do

that's very tidy fella... nice job. Do Bos still make the headers for the 12's?

[hellboyrich]

Unsure of bos

These were made by sandbar

Thanks Rich, I got no response from the guys in Holland via e-mail, I'll give them a buzz I think.

If it's not rude to ask, what was the retail on the pipes fella? I'd really like the HP2 style ones as like you I'd like to run the HP2 belly pan when I return to the 'S' fold, hopefully this weekend!

I like what you've done though, just enough and not overboard with too many bits hanging off it, looks classy, and yellow is of course the fastest colour... right?

Oops Don't think so.

I think it's scientifically proven eyore.... I'll let you know on Saturday.. but it looks super fast standing still.. not that I can ride at the moment as I'm quite broken, but I'm sure when the guys put the bike in the van it will be soooo fast...

That's not "yellow" - that's "custard".............
