Thanks guys, our suppliers kicked in a bunch of stuff this year, by Wakefield we'll have the 2 bike team looking like twins (no pun intended)..

A few updates and some info on the Race bikes
Full system with titanium silencers:
- titanium collector: 2837 g;
- titanium silencer (without db killer): 1570 g each.
Total weight full Ti system - 5.977 kg
Full system with carbon silencers:
- titanium collector: 2837 g;
- carbon silencer (without db killer): 1857 g each.
Total weight full Ti Headers/carbon Silencers 6.551kg
I also just weighed the Termi system that was on the 1198s..
It is the new style with the shorter angled silencers:
Headers - Stainless: 4.712kg
Carbon Silencers: 1.463kg each
Total: 7.638kg
Weight saving for the 1198s: 1,661kg
+ we saved nearly 3kg with our lightweight race Battery, as well as possibly 3-4kg with our lightweight race fairings.. we have yet to weigh these, but just the tail section is over a kg lighter than the race glass that was on the bike last year!
Here's the Titanium Exhaust we fitted to the 1198s

and this is on the way for the 848, which we haven't finished as yet, should be done in the next few weeks, so will post up pics..

That's such a pretty header looking system, it's shame so much of it gets hidden by fairings.
