Was a little bored today so decided to fit this Akrapovic to cheer myself up 
Damn I love Ebay sometimes!!! Camera Phone pics with cold shakey hands and had not yet fixed the belly pan section of the fairing in place so not as neat looking..
Here is what the original can looks like. I do like the stock one but much prefere the Akra!

Nah, Potts - don't think you've met him.
How did he do that? Saw him on the telly again a little while ago.
Just saw Jim's pics on facebook. Wish I could have come.
I'm glad his camera is 'broken' though.

He was filtering and needed to get back in to the traffic, braked locked up the front, dropped on the left hand side and then slid into a concrete island thingy.
Lots of plastics, clutch & gear lever, headlight & tank - I'll be putting it back together for him once we've rounded up enough parts
I did have to go into lecture mode when he told me "my jacket is wrecked & my trainers came off " - All the gear all the time FFS
Haven't checked out Jim's pics on faceache yet, but I know he's a perv, I'll get copies and put them up here
I bought a new pair of boots.
Met up with Pip, Dom & Tony & also bumped in to Ian (Fazer1k).
A good day out

Good to bump into you too Dan !Agreed, a great day out, nothing bought.....yet - may have to scratch the 1200GS itch soon (a used one that is).....but still keeping the 'classic' VFR though

I went on the friday, nice and quiet and got to ride the Harley Street Bob and the Ducati Hypermotard with BSM! Made my day for sure!

I bought myself a new pair of gloves the other day, to cheer myself up among this awful weather! Went for these:
