Akrapovic k1200s
« on: February 28, 2015, 07:51:24 am »
I've decided to run with the standard exhaust, so my Carbon akrapovic is up for grabs.
Great condition, removable baffles
The link pipe is stuck on, but in the right place so never bothered me.
£200 plus postage, which shouldn't be much as it weighs next to nothing!

Right well farmermo,  if the demon flu backs off and the body returns to some semblance of normality I'll take an evening run up to see your bargain next week. Please post if you sell it beforehand.

Have you tried the next size up Torx bit?
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

Dremel? You must be the only farmer I know who wants to use such a delicate tool; most of them have a hammer, a big shifter and a Stillson wrench! :) Don't tickle it; get the angle grinder out! Just kidding; I can't remember if there's space for the angle grinder so I may have used the Dremel when I fitted my Remus.

....and when you refit the new bolt, smother it with Akropovic assembly grease!
