Hi I'm Dave (Mental to my friends) and I live in Wolverhampton although I'm from London originally. I'm married for the second time with 4 kids and 3 step kids. I ride a XJ600S which I love deeply, past bikes include 1100 katana, ZZR1100, GPZ900R. I've only lived here for a year so I dont know many people and no bikers at all  so I'm hoping to meet some nice people or just mental ones like me ;D |

Hi, Just an update to my previous post...I now have my bike so I thought I'd post a pic - what does everyone think? Looks very nice. That exhaust looks very nice too.. what is it? Enjoy yourself and stay safe. |

Post by xj600s on Oct 1, 2007 16:44:53 GMT
Thanks - I don't know what the exhaust is (it was on the bike when I bought it and there's no logo on it) but it looks very similar to the Delkevic ones for sale on ebay. It has a removable baffle (which naturally had to come out!) which makes it sound very sweet.

Hi Joe. Welcome to the YDC. You've come to the right place for advice on how to rebuild that 'complete dog of a XJ600S'!
Winter project?
Keep it upright

Ayup, Stu... Me and Joosy are up here in Slough.... nice ride to guildford from here - go that way to Box Hill from time to time. Welcome, anyway ! a man who admits to a superdream has nothing to prove... (I've had three or four of the things...) |
