Iam after a bit of advice spoke to Chisels today regarding fitting a ADS-3 and they said that there is no fitting issues with it on a SERIES 2 i thought they had to be specially made/orderd to fit a series 2 :?:

Fits just perfectly on my GP, with only a little trimming of my rear footboard required which will also be required on your Series 2 and it sits a fair bit further from the frame stand strut than my JL4 so no problems expected there either.
The endcan looks far enough away from the panel so I guess there'll be enough clearance for a Series 2 panel with it's handle as well.

Eh?
That's an oxymoron if ever I saw one, surely if it fitted perfectly, tou wouldn't be trimming anything :?

Ok, you got me there, I will say the pipe fit perfectly without the trimming of the footboard, but my standard series 3 rear shock would have allowed the pipe to hit the footboard on the cobbled old town roads locally, and since it's a road bike I preferred cuttign my footboard a little as opposed to wrecking my new expensive pipe.... A stronger rear shock might be sufficient, but I can't say for certain.

All the ADS pipes have been run on the Chiselspeed 'Fat Lass' Series 2. They've just completed a Series 1 TS complete build and no probs. I would expect the runner to be trimmed with most pipes to be honest.
