6 pot callipars on the front, nice. The newer shape doesnt have them does it? I fancy the newer shape 636, dont like the underseat exhaust on them though. Although the 03-04 ones still have the side exhaust tho.

Not too sure on the newer ones, the bike itself  for 03+ is a lot smaller, opted for this model as it fits me well, front brakes appear to work ok - got braided hoses on the list of things to do and new pads.... indicators etc will come after suspension and the handling / stopping side of things as they are purely cosmetic

Nice can, I agree with the others, not sure on the new logo, but cant go wrong with Akrapovic's!

Cheers the can is lovely, sounds so much nicer, and I the logo definately grows on you, I am happy with it , no more shiny bits this month though as mums 60th tomorrow, daughters birthday party on sat and sunday is hers and her mums birthdays... My bank account is feeling sad.

Tim, that logo will look great once everybody starts seeing it on works race bikes.  Noticed it watching bsb on a few bikes. I think i prefer it actually.
