| Anyone want to swap cans? Ok, so I bought a second hand CF Micron muffler. It turns out to be the micron "blue" CF (you can't really tell under artificial light, hence I didn't know when I bought it), and my bike is of course RED!
I have a few pics here http://opax.swin.edu.au/~fabianjosef/micron/ and you can see the blue colour in a few of them. It really isn't noticable unless under direct sunlight so I am not totally devastated if I keep it. Can is in new condition, with 2,000kms on it before I bought it, and I have put on another 300.
BUUUUT if anyone with a blue 954/929 has a normal colour (grey) CF micron that they want to swap, I would be grateful. I would also consider a swap with Titanium or Stainless (if a few $ are involved with the stainless).

| Re: Anyone want to swap cans? Cheers Zop!
Yeah, have been reading this site since I bought the blade in march but haven't posted much. Brenny put me onto the site!
I figured it would be a bit more productive to post the swap deal here rather than 250.com
Unfortunately I have the curse of wanting everything perfect (brenny will laugh at me now  ), so I was pretty shitty when I discovered it was blue. I even thought about selling it to marsh in Syd [whiney voice]but I still want a CF Micron[/whiney voice] so I thought I'd try my luck with the swap. |

Chain goes through stages where he likes to try as many different cans on his bikes in the shortest time possible, I think he's actually trying for some type of guiness book of records.  |

| Re: Anyone want to swap cans?  Ah, I see
That's almost a hobby within a hobby isn't it? (even though riding is more of an obsession than hobby in my book  )
Sooooooo, back to the muffler. Anyone have one to swap?! here is another pic of mine. |

| Re: Anyone want to swap cans? Hahahaha I like it. (sie pipes)
If you can't find anyone, you might wanna call Redwing and see if you can just buy a skin for it. I'm pretty sure you can. It's a piece of piss to change over, so that might be the G.O. |
