Took the X9 for a long ride around the suffolk/essex borders to test the new exhaust. Its rather loud, but good!

Here's a pic of the exhaust fitted...

i have had a pirelle diablo on the front for nearly 2 years, caim on when i got scoot, i have found it to be very grippy, warms up well and have never had any problems with it, i run the front at 30 psi cold which warms up to 34 psi in use, you can always tell if it goes down to 28 psi cold , not sure whether to get another or go with bridgestone, as i like the rear battleaxe i got fitted, the H rate tyre is more expensive than say the s rated tyres

steven if you need the rear one to match £87 delivered http://www.oponeo.co.uk/moto-tyre-detai ... ear-tl-m-c" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
a good bike shop usually fits for £10 if you take the wheel in :)

Today I changed my airfilter and made a variator holder from plywood bolts.
Next up: oil change, clean the oil screen, valve clearance check, new drivebelt and rollers.
