Off on holiday tomorrow for 7 weeks , so it will be sitting out in the street under it's cover for the duration


BTW, have a great meet on the 20th it's forecast for rain at the Ace so bringing my winter gear over with me !

Nothing worse than having an H and not being able to scratch it !

Weather at the Ace held up - I even got a tan
You must of had a good meet yourselves as no ZXR400's

This is what I was "hoofing" about on for the 7 weeks, back tyre lasted about 1,600 miles with the front a close 2nd


Fitted with Carbon Kevlar bodywork that i sent over:

Re: USD Conversion on my 400
Continuing my ever fetish for exhausts , I thought i would give a mega phone a try. This is a little Hybrid system I have made up with Yoshimura Cyclone Pipes/collector onto a Panzer megaphone
I also have a Carbon Kevlar can that I will try out over the next few days (same manufacturer)
Performance:
Wow! Low down grunt just took a leap, picks up from around 2,500RPM and rev's out like a whippet on amphetamines
However, it doesn't appreciate WOT in any gear for my current set-up.
Sounds freakin fantastic and at 5K "ROARS" it's way through the traffic
Conclusion:
BEET still wins the day (just) but maybe a certain Black Megaphone might find it's way into my cupboard
For looks I would have it above the Yoshi, performance is probably on a par just different - but it is using the headers and the 4-2 collector.

Re: USD Conversion on my 400

You must've started right, and worked left for this pano, Drew. Check the guy in the camo style jacket, with the blond mohawk out. He's in the shot three times, approaching the white van!
*Edit* Also, check out that guy in the green/white Kwak jacket about 2/3 of the way along towards the right - he's only got half a head!
Did you perchance use a purely automated photomerging option to create that panorama?

Yeah, that's String - I'm sure he's in it 4 times lol

There are few "oddities" in there - floating torso's , half a man, double decker head man and a few others![]()

For quickness I did indeed - meaning to go back and do a better job of it, finding the time is another question though![]()
A good day out and recommended
