Only done approximately 5000 miles and is in good condition.
Im having a custom system fitted as i think it looks a bit big for the look im after.
The new system will be fitted on 18th Dec so it will be available then.
Many thanks, Ollie.

The mongoose is nice, but its a bitch to stop it from knocking around.

It tends to knock around the bracket before the back box when its cold but gunner sorted his by wrapping a bike innertube around it.

Yeah man had to be done! K-Tech = far to god dam loud to put up with!
Just had a mongoose exhaust fitted to mine, but, unfortunately it knocks, lol.
Took it to Mr Tyre in Leicester to have it fitted to replace the rediculously loud K-Tec exhaust, as they usually do a pretty good job. Took it out for a spin after it had been fitted and as expected i could hear it knocking under the rear seat.
Took it back and he bent the pipe slightly and moved some brackets, which did improve it, but when i tapped the accelerator, causing the engine to rock, it was knocking again :(
Took it back a second time and he bent it some more, but still knocks. Seems to be knocking as it goes over the rear axle , noticed the brackets were pretty close to the bodywork so it looks like they're what's knocking.
Anyone managed to stop theirs from knocking at all?
I was thinking about taking the big brackets off, and replacing them with the same sort of brackets that are used on pipes in the engine bay (the metal ones with the screws on that tighten up). These are pretty thin and the screws are too so hopefully shouldn't be as close to the body.
Anyone think this is a good idea? Any other suggestions?
Apart from the knocking, i'm loving it! :)
breat big bag of zip ties is all you need! 8)
Any more details on that? What have you zip tied and where???
