    If you are paying for a taxi everyday to work and back I'd think you've already bought a couple exhausts by now. It's probably going to take that part 1-2 weeks to get there from the US. I'm not sure how long the Melbourne part would take, but the difference times the taxi cost each day is what you need to add on. All of a sudden a $125 exhaust really costs you $200, $300, maybe more.

    If it was me, that Melbourne part would have already arrived and the bleeding to the taxi company would have stopped!

    I'm definitely not wealthy. I just have no business sense, I guess.

    One man's trash is another man's treasure, the saying goes, right? :unsure:

    Thanks for the offer Sebspeed, but I'm running out of time. I will be ordering either from melbourne or New Zealand (found a performance aftermarket supplier!)

    If you can get some images, costs and an ETA for me this weekend that would be time for me to consider..

    So this poses the question:

    As I cannot afford an aftermarket system, could we possibly put together a group buy and get a discount? If I could find 10 or so interested buyers, I would be happy to organise the purchase and distribution)

    Which forum should I post the announcement in?

    I will have details of the system on Monday or Tuesday. All I currently know is that they have a few options ranging from painted steel OEM replica through to full stainless 4 into 1 systems...

    The manufacturer is Kiwi and have just started to export to the US and Europe. They are called Cycleworks.

    Calling all VF500F owners who are interested!!

    Link: Motorcycle exhausts and mufflers

    Their catalog only shows collectors and mufflers for the VF500, but I have been told via another forum that they have a 4 - 1 option available...:cheersaf:

    I've had to order the part from melbourne as I can't get in contact with the guy from NZ. I will still find out prices and details so that if anyone is interested in a group buy it still can be organised.

    Cheers to all those who help out on this thread!
