Default Moto GP Carbon can

My moto GP carbon can arrives tomorrow yipeeee!!

Superb value for money just £200 delivered. Of course our lovely government want another £47 import duty

I'm looking forward to popping it on. I got this of ebay and it looks ace, pretty similar to the Scorpion GP style can but a 5th of the price. Reviews all reported it was a very good bit of kit and noway a cheap item in terms of quality as it's price would suggest.

Brummm Brumm pop pop gurgle gurgle.... Big kids arn't we

Can arrived today, I must say the quality really belays the price point. It's full stainless with reall high quality carbon and end piece. The sound is very very nice, much deeper too. Especially at 4k, really booms now . At flat chat it howls. I really didn't think it would but I'm surprised.

As for cheap tat, not at all. I would argue it's a bargain that does just the same job as a £600 can, looks the same and has the same guarantee. If you can prove to me why a £600 can is better then please start your closing comments... do I really have to ask really ask you who's mad? I've got £400 quid to spend on other goodies.... Yippeeeee!!!

good price on the cans but the only issue people will have is there is no rivet bands. the edges of the sleevs will soften slightly and or packing will come out.
