    Centre silencer removal...again...

    I've recently had mine removed, I used Custom Chrome in Nuneaton, they chopped out the centre box and made up a section to put in, cost 50 quid and it sounds awesome. however there is now a noticeable flat spot, it doesn't really bother me though, you quickly learn to drive around it
