Yeah so I know not a lots been going on for a while. Combined with me being broke all the time and my engineer flipping his bike a month or so ago and only now just allowed to leave hospital I ain't able to get it done in time for hayride. Managed to make a new super sturdy sidemount and clean up the rear caliper and that's about it. Payday next week though so sorting out the electrickery that's needed and getting some zorst wrap.

Does anyone know where you can get it for a reasonable price? Everywhere I look is really really pricey.

In the meantime I'll leave you with a pic of the old mans new toy.

Exhaust wrap

e-bay for starters I guess, but I've used a company called Frosts www.frosts.uk for a really good tank sealer (they're a UK outlet for an American compnay called Eastwood I think) and they do a kit, its designed for a car but if you found someone else and split the cost?? (£52, see copy of description below)

Worth bearing in mind the tape width may vary depending on who you get it from.


Wrap the exhaust to cool the engine bay, deaden noise and help exhaust extraction. Kit includes 15 metre roll of 50mm wide white wrapping and 8 clips. Will cover most 4 cylinder engines. Can be coloured with our high temperature exhaust paints.

that's cool will have a look. Found a specialist company and they do a kit, but its like £100 and I probably wouldn't need it all. Think I need to figure out how much I need first I guess

cheers for that

When I did the last one with exhaust wrap I used a normal bandage wrapped around the exhaust to measure exactly how much I needed....saved me a few quid...Voodoo.....
