    Hi David. Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new bike. Have you ridden one yet? They are a lot of fun. I bought mine in February and have done nearly 3000 miles. Best to read Mr Triples ownership thread for mods. I'd recommend a tail tidy,rad and oil cooler guards and tank grips.

    Ive just fitted a Austin racing exhaust and it defiantly pulls stronger through the mid range and low down. As the the pops and downshift bangs worth every penny

    Was looking at fitting one of the Austin racing what's the sound like I'll be doing trackdays on it so don't want it too loud
    Do they need any remapping doing ?
    Do you have any pictures
    Thanks

    I think Trackdays are a definite no I’m afraid. I will get it mapped but it runs and pulls ok as it is

    That tiny pipe must be really really loud.
    I would rather go with double underseat cans from SC Project.
    Keeps Speedy look like Speedy but you lose 3.3 to 3.7kg off the rear of the bike.
    IMHO stock Arrows look bulky, SC Project fit the bike better, but they are not allowed where I am at (too loud).

    The Sound Bomb Mini is MORE than adequate and is a direct replacement for the original squeaker. It uses the same wires and you'll just need to mess about with the mounting bracket to position it just right. I think I pillaged the rubber bushing off the original part to help secure it properly.

    I'm about to order one for my Scrambler :)

    Edit: Now ordered :yum

    I'm considering a Austin pipe...which 1 did you get? I'm thinking of the GP1R. And was it difficult to install? how long did you have to wait for it?
