Thought it already had 30mm's on it? Must've been mistaken... You need to take me for a spin in this at the weekend, I need to see what it's like stripped. As I'm getting tempted, but I just don't think I could live with it!

it's not that bad I've been around in it just make sure you fill in the holes where the rear benches were to dampen down the exhaust noise
