·Thats exactly what i've done after owning it for 5 days. I gave the bike some more character. Yep, thats right. Like Ducati's and Buell's and whatnots. How did i do that? Well...
For starters i mounted the short ass i got from Ebay, looks the bomb! Mounted the stock turn signals and found they where a bit close to the exhausts. Didnt care much about it, figured they'd be heat resistant anyway. Cause thats what we should expect from a quality product such as the S3 right? Think again! They are not heat resistant enough. Yesterday i found out that they'r melting away... Guess i can always mount smaller ones, and soon my new slip-on should arrive. What else did i do? I ermm..."jumped" a curb and nicked it with the lowest bit of my headers... Managed to dent the middle pipe quite good. Thank god i didnt put on a belly pan. Think i reduced the airflow trough the mid pipe by about 1/5th.
Sad? Nah... Sorry? Nah... Character is what it is....
fucksake, got the damn thing for 5 days and did about 700km and managed to melt the blinkers and ruin the exhaust.
wned: Guess thats a good excuse for ordering the 3/1 Arrow or Old Squids headers with his new short... Gotta mail that fella some time about it.
Anyone have a clue if the dent in my exhaust will harm the engine?
And keep yer halfassed funnay comments to yourselves Mkay? :twofinger:
