Cover up the Cat!

Nice

Im selling my tec bike cat cover

Refitted mine with a full Akky Evo a couple of days ago and I'm very pleased with the result. The extra bracket is a piece of piss to fit and for the sum total of £90 it finishes the bike off nicely and fills the crappy gap the cat leaves behind. Much better than hundreds spent on aftermarket bellypans.

Budget - but does the job.

Hi. The German site doesn't say why/when you need the additional bracket. I have a standard cat with an Akro shorty - do I need to buy the bracket too?

 

[MOz]

No. The bracket is required when you remove the cat as the left side of the cat cover is secured to a bolt hole in the cat. No cat, not mounting bolt hole so the adaptor is fixed to a threaded hole on the back of the engine block that provides the same mounting point as the cat cover does on the left.

why does nobody do a cat cover in carbon??????

 

[BUZZ]

It would melt as it sits a few mm off the cat so it has to be mental

How come Austin make a very long bellypan than that almost touches the back wheel? Why don't they melt?

 

[DangerousDave]

Because I suspect that pan is used with the ARCS system which, to fit, you cut off the cat and replace with a stubby link pipe.

 

[fatbob]

Dave is correct
Besides I don't reckon being close to the wheel will bring on any melting

Still don't think this bit of metal is better than the gap though

That's because you are aesthetically challenged

nope, longer bellypan also fits stock systems.

[lllN30lll]

Think we have to be careful here, i bought a full bellypan (2010)made with the cut away underneath because of the extreme heat of the cat.......

same bellypan with arcs decat, kept the bellypan in case had to refit origonal on track days.....
