Its a Giannelli yup!. piss poor tho! Rear silncer fits on its own no problems . marry it to front section it then needs to be about half inch back. the front pipe mount brkt is no where near location in frame. The front flange where they have strenghtened it on either side the right side hits the frame as per the missing paint on my newly painted frame i've sent the supplier in Germany an email (in English) with th efaults. I should have realised german bikes are restricted but not on a "performance" pipe Wouldn't it be good to remove something from a box and just bolt it on. I feel some modding and repaining coming now! I'm f***ed if I'm sending it back! Good news was I had 4 NOS NLA parts arrive from Granbys today... well chuffed!

well I've bolted the front pipe up onto barrel to see where the pipe is out of line ......... pipe hits downtube of frame..... no mounting point on pipe for above mount.... front and rear pipes butted together...... rear pipe bolted in position on rear mount... front and rear pipes bolted in mounting positions, leaves half inch overlap HOW CAN THEY MAKE SOMETHING SO FAR OUT?

pipes all boxed ready to go back to Germany Granbys have a NOS tailpipe £150 posted! I just missed a front pipe used on ebay but want NOS really! decided not to rush it now and wait! still got wheels/tyres to sort so plenty of ££££333 to go so need to ease up a bit. Still got 4L1 to change engine and cases over to matching no's UK set plus £100's worth of NOS bits to finish of to original.
