        MTC save gearbox wear! 
        
 
         Hi Chaps,
        
 Just a bit more feed back after 1 day of having my MTC single can on.
 On my commute to work today I recon I changed gear half as many times as usual, literally , no longer going 5th to 4th to 3rd to 4th 5th and so on to prevent the old judder/ kangerooing when trying to pull a high gear at low revs.
 The bike is now what I always expected a big single to be like unstrangled , flexible and punchy with a fair turn of speed but not "fast".
 I know the exhaust is in conjunction with my other kev+o2+ air filter mods but it is the final piece of the jigsaw as far as Im concerned and has really made the bike so very much nicer to ride.
 I contacted MTC when I realised it was a bit too noisy and they said they would get another baffle in the post straight away, what a company, their service really is among the best Ive ever had.
 But until I get that I just welded a perforated washer on the end of the baffle and hey presto , a bit of a bark but not so noisy everyone stares and your deafened going along.
 Ive now pretty much done all the mods I wanted to so bike is finished for the moment (apart from tool tube, heated grips ...... ), heres the list from standard to how I wanted:-
 
 -Kev mod
 - O2 mod
 - Stage 1 +2 air filter and snorkel removed
 -Air pump bypassed
 -MTC single can
 -High screen
 -40MM lowered
 -TKC 80 tyres
 -Metal Mule panniers
 -Built in garmin sat nav
 -Engine bars and sumpshield
 -centre stand
 -tail tidied
 -Inflatable pillow (air hawk seat too pricey) with sheepskin for long journeys
 
 Ill put a pic on once Ive sussed how? and thanks to anyone who answered my questions over the last months.
