My Christmas bonus wouldn't be enough to buy a set of pattern collets.

Sounds like two xmas bonuses to me that does , getting the money in the first place and then HMRC not billing you once they land :up

Do you not feel guilty about swerving the taxman Pete ? :wink:

Even at £1250 they are a good price .. of course the tax man will put add his slice on top. How much are Z power doing them for?

If they've already delivered it - tell 'em to Fork-orf - or come and take it back & just give them a box full of old H***a parts, all wrapped up nice :!:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

Sorry my mistake.
The pipes are about $1550 not 1250 postage is about $200 but for the same postage you can put a few more bits in the box, I got some stainless spokes and a few extra bits .
still work out a lot cheaper than over here. and the tax man can sod off if he turns up.

zpower said about £1350 plus postage

Ive just checked my credit card statement and the total payment was £1240.05 inc a £36 transaction fee. but dont forget it includes about £150 of other parts.
Just looked up the exchange rate now and it works out about £960 for the pipes.
They are like the early type with no stampings on them but they do have the little chrome covers on the weld between the down pipe and the silencer.
