The improvements to my bike keep happening thanks to some astute purchases. In addition to my suspension upgrades, I recently picked up a full Arrows system with carbon end cans thanks to Bigmic. I fitted them today which took about 30 mins and was pretty easy. Then I went for a ride which was even easier. These are a big improvement on my cored cans which were a big improvement on the standard can. The bike sounds better and runs smoother to boot. I promised Bigmic I would post a photo so here it is: ![](http://i755.photobucket.com/albums/xx193/techno_photo/arrows.jpg) Since when did that tree start growing out of my seat? PS. Bigmics bike is still for sale, I think, but now with standard exhaust.

Looking good Techno, can you put up some pic's of your carbon tail tidy, interested in one for my bike but haven't seen what they look like from different angles. Cheers.

Very nice leigh, looking forward to hearing your bike - i have a confession to make, not sure why but t.hought that roxy might sound better a bit quieter so put the ba**les in took her for a ride and well the ba**les came back out as soon as i got home - i do not know what I was thinking but when I stopped the smile was not on my face like it usually is - i know that you know the smile i am talking about as you all have the same one everytime you turn the bike on. Anyway i did and still do feel a bit dirty about the whole experience, feel a bit better for confessing though I think Yellow Meanie is alive!! Looking forward to the distraction - has been a distinct lack of where is that awesome sound comming from ![Cheesy](http://ducatimonsterforum.org/Smileys/classic/cheesy.gif) , my neck exercise has been down of late.

WOW that looks and sounds great Jukie! Well done!!!!
Im sure ive asked this before, but will you need a new ECU seeing you have the pods on? Does it matter much if it is a bit more "exposed" down there to water etc? Wont do any damage?

That's great Jukie, can't wait to see it and hear for real. And not necessarily will you need a new ECU, a Power Commander will usually do the trick.
Hhmmm, mods coming!
