no not that the chinese products are bad, in fact in terms of electronics usually the opposite.
but HID are usually expensive here in the UK buy i was looking at getting a HID for the ZX6 and prices were arounf that for HID kits from Hong Kong

Where'd you get the Titanium exhaust for the bike webjunky? And if you don't mind me asking, how much did it set you back? It looks awesome.

It was a one off prototype . saw it on ebay and couldnt believe it was for this bike . checked it out and it was! so i just went for it I reckon if you were able to buy one retail it would cost you about £1200 -£1500 because everything including the can and bracket etc is titanium but we got it for £230 so an absolute steal really you aint gonna see another one that is for sure
if you are interested in a full titanium system i know that one site does them for £900 with a carbon can and they are available from japan for the later models, lots of money i know but it cuts the weight loads and it feels like a different bike to ride.

even though it was a steal being a prototype it still needed a little pushing and shoving to make it fit an the pipe needed cutting by about 20 mm to make it right but she sounds brilliant

no just started her up and she was perfect maybe with a little occasional pop on the overrun but nothing to worry about , might get a dynojet kit later but not really top of the list as she runs fine . next job is gonna be to tweek the suspension :D

Flip, that was such a bargain. well i think i'm just gonna have to wait until summer and then take the downpipes off, sand then down and re-spray them again, they're rusting to pieces at the minute with all the crap weather we've had this winter, argh!!
Would love to get a nice bolt on end can for them to make a bit more sound, but i think it's only the CBR 400 ones that fit it and i can never find any cheap ones.
I've gotta sort out my suspension too. Forks have been leaking for a bit and the rear shocks are totally shot.
