Hi all, just got an ancillotti From the new batch in, after a 10 mile ride, noticed the down pipes were pickled, and this strange tin foil looking stuff brushed of, leaving a mild steel pipe. They are described as having stainless down pipes. On ringing dealer, they were mortified. I quote " bloody ITalians. Always changing stuff to save money." Seems without telling stockists, the changed the down pipes to md steel with some 'chrome' plate which peels off first ride. Respect to casa lammy , who sourced some unsold stainless pipes and sent the. Immediately . You have been warned.

That's the least of your worries. The whole thing will probably fall to bits within a couple of thousand miles. Shame because they're great pipes.

Yup , did hear early batches had too long link pipe, causing stand contact, a d box being under stress, causing box to fall apart. Replacement ones arrived, 1 day, thanks casa uk, they fall on, everything inline, no stress on box. Maybe sito sorted the probs briefly before totally f***ing them up again!!! The new spray on chrome versions have 2 spring fixing as well. But you can't fit the top one, fouls cowl. Good job sito.....
