Well they fit! One pipe runs very close to the brake reservoir and I had to do some fiddling but it's good enough for now. Will post pics and details in a day or so once it's fully finished. But here it is; fitted straight up. Real precision workmanship.

Do you have a chrome cover that will cover where the headers join the crossover pipe? If not Mabey one of those universal heat shields you can get that are held on with 2 hose clamps. I had one on the top pipe of my Harley so Julie's boot wouldn't melt on the pipe.

Looks like a good bang for your buck, Mates. Well done!

No, but I'll be putting something there. The one I have is too long and isn't the right radius either. I'll come up with something.

The headers im running are as close to the reservoir as yours are Richard .. admittedly mine are wrapped but they run really hot. Could be wrong but I don't think it'll be a problem after looking at the pics.

Think I'll have to get something made. Only ones I can find are chrome and I want stainless to go with the pipes. This is the Foran cover just sitting there. I could make some mounts but it would scratch the ceramic at the top corners so better getting something that fits properly.

**** nice looking - best red one I've seen, BTW.

I gotta say, Bruce: those look really sweet.

I'm considering getting a set despite just putting on the Rebands. The CES system is beautiful, open, and apparently seals and fits as it should. Very cool.

I can see a fee sets of rebands on the second hand market coming up.

Looks great mate .. great combination with the headers and the Forans. Been a long time coming glad you got what you wanted.

Thanks guys. I'm very happy I must say. Yeah, it's been a while.
Still wish we'd have got that other 'project' off the ground though, TC.
Very grateful to Les and Bruce and can't speak highly enough about the quality of Trev's workmanship.
