    You get some disapproving looks with the noise it makes but you just give them

    I scared an unsuspecting by stander with mine the other day with a bit of clutch/rev action. He jumped like someone was shooting a gun...my mate and I had a few chuckles. Little things that amuse haha

    no mot fella, when it passed the mot last year i must of done about 200 miles in it and then the clutch cable broke which has since been repaired and it didnt make it back on the road, i just gave james a call about the exhaust issue and he says he is coming round next week to sort it out, so when thats done then its mot time lol!

    dude we could get it out for aylesbury meet. If you want to sort a mot, get it booked up etc. Would be real cool.

    Why is the devil sidey so loud? I had to take the sidey off mine as it had no boxes on it what so ever, you could hear it from miles away, sounded amazing off the limiter

    Devils are also straight through, along with a huge exit... about twice the size or KTR's sidey & sidewinders...

    Re: fitted my ktr sidey

    VNT and sidey makes an awesome pop when it comes on boost

    i used to have no silencer, had it removed from the sidey but had a smaller than normal one put back in because you could hear the turbo spinning down when it wasn't silenced.

    a std k-tec one isn't overly loud tho
