1 year anniversary

Post by stumpy »

hello, one and all. joined the site last week but have been using it for 12 months.i have a L3 zxr 400 in black and purple. we have been together 12 months today! love the bike(why do people even consider any other 400?) have had a few problems with it but it was bought cheap off ebay and was a bit of a minger. it now has been dynojetted, k and n,stainless pipe and can,tail tidy and mini indicators, new wheel bearings,head bearings,pads,starter and battery. next are braided brake lines and single seat cos the wife won't get on the back. will post some pictures when the sun comes out and i can take some nice ones.


has any body else got an mrs road/race can on there bike? i bought mine new and it was only £90 from the supplier. its stainless,oval with removable baffle and sounds awesome. just wondered how the compare to micron/scorpion cans.

i did not realise how easy it was to join! the 'having problems' page has been a big help when trying to sort out all the problems with the bike. thought it was about time i joined and share the zxr 400 experience.the exhaust is a mrs road/race exhaust can. bought it last year of the internet direct from supplier. seems to be well made and it is stamped road legal but with a removable baffle. it was only £90 new and i thought it would be crap but it seems good and sounds and looks great. i will try and find out which supplier it was.

just looked on web site (mrs direct) and the price of the exhaust cans have gone up to £160! dont know why mine was cheap, might be because i bought it through ebay shops.
