Lookin good buddy,how long til they're ready to try fitting?

Moved on a bit since I popped round t'other day.

All the motor bits are coming together,clutch has shipped-so that'll get stuck in customs for weeks,but rods done this week.

So what you got then Dannyboy????

"EBR and Barker"...so by "museum pieces" do you mean they should be displayed in a glass case?

Albert's welding is always nice,but these latest one's are about as good as I've ever seen.

With standard headers,Albert's oval can and ecmspy on a standard ecm we got 146hp and 80ftlb.Hopefully squeeze more out with the new headers. TMstg1 on same bike made 138&74.

Albert the is this the quiet muffler???
I have the oval one, and the sound is more strong than the exhaust of the video.
The new headers can modify the sound to make the exhaust more quiet?

I saw this system in the flesh yesterday at our annual UKBEG charity bike meeting ...it really is a work of art and fits the bike perfectly unlike a lot of systems that hang too low under the engine.

photos from our day are on facebook here
