    Congrats mate, but no help here I'm afraid, as I had them fitted prior to getting the bike, have the standard set sitting in a box in my spare parts room! From what I heard from a couple of lads with Katies I've met, that did replace the standard cans, yes, you do find a marked difference in performance. (Maybe due to the necessary, different mapping too?) Noise levels increase as well of course!
    Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
