    Hi to all those decerning enough to realise that sports bikes are not the be all and end all of motorcycling.Just bought an Affrica Twin 1998 great bike,always wanted one. The only thing I didn't like about the bike was the wispering exaust note so I bought an excellent Motad Venom GP CARBON CAP slip on can. It cost around 116 pounds stirling delivered from E bay and fitted a treat.About same exaust tone as say a standard Xr 400/650 R . Removed the baffle from it and wow! sounds great,not too loud but really crisp with no change to tickover or the running temperature of bike. Will post some photos soon.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Don't take too long with the photos.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
