apart from the fact they look wank, they will prob be alright, its just machined metal at end of day. for the price there ok for costem bikes, iv bought a few jap/thia sets like these for projects in past, hacked and modifiyd to fit certain needs, worked well. but so do most rear sets of most bikes too tbh. food for thought.

Thats an interesting bit of engineering... Bodging a 4T exhaust can onto a 2T with what appears to be a car exhaust clamp and a couple of rubber bands? Bet that adds 10bhp.

I know the whole bike is terrible but who designed that seat unit? Looks like the bike was rear-ended by an HGV.

That's possibly the ugliest bastard I've ever seen... I'd say nice find, but there is nothing nice about it at all!!
