Love the gear lever, great work there. I have a billet one from Wicked, but making a custom one for your own/brother's feet is next level Can I ask what the ballpark cost was for the exhaust kit on behalf the Aussie contingent? (feel free to PM if not wanting to say on here of course). I ask as this is a good way to cut down on the cost of postage as a normal set of pipes is hellish to post as they charge on the volume of the box and that means the lightweight pipes cost the same as a huge anvil to get sent here.

I can imagine thatβs the case with sea freight. The volume of the hull is finite so weight is irrelevant? With air freight I can imagine they charge by weight? Jon

Jon They charge all mail by both Jon, whichever is the 'heavier'. The parcel weight is worked out volumetrically as well as empirically.

Looking great Chris. Top fab work as usual. I like the fact that your bro got MBD to sort a bigger core rad in the original guard. I have a big bore motor in the background for the LC and was thinking about cooling and keeping stock lines at the same time. A call to MBD down the line is in order methinks. John

Yep he wanted to keep the stock rad guard ,we tried a Chinese bigger one but the guard wouldn't fit ,so he contacted mbd and they were great and sorted it ,so the guard fits but still with a bigger core βΊοΈ
