Here's their site http://www.sebring.de

Looks like they raised their prices. Alot!
648 Euro ($777) for the polished aluminum.
828 Euro ($993) for the titanium.
The shipping was about $70 (I think)...then you add $40-50 bank fund transefer fee.....Lets see........add the 7 and the 9....carry the 1.... add 70......
= alot of freaking cash!!! :shock:

Expensive but I would buy a set of titanium pipes if I could save the money for the weight loss and better looks. Stock cans are too heavy and you could shave considerable weight swapping them for something lighter.

I would never throw any old parts away. I have a bunch of spare parts that I nicked here and there a few weeks after I got it. I never crashed but I fell over a few times trying to pull it in my house in Deerfield because we didn't have a garage at the time. I scuffed the corner of the front fairing and got really upset so I bought a new one. I put the new one on and it;s perfect but I have the old one too and it makes for great race plastics should I ever decide to do a track day! Actually the old one isn't too bad at all but it was enough for me to replace. The plastic is very durable and hard. I nicked a bar end and the paint flaked off so I bought a new one. I will eventually have the chipped one anodized black rather than that paint they use on the bar ends. I want to have two anodized black rather than painted. I have spare r.v mirrors too with very slight scratches on the edge but I'm picky so I got new ones. I also have a spare MZ decal for the fairing, 4 oil filters, a new air filter, and spark plugs. Shortly after I got the bike I bought a few spare screws and clips too for the fairings. I like to collect spares - it's always a good idea.

I'm getting the same way. I have a left side panel plastic sitting on an amplifier in my jam room. It's started to pile up! That's a good thing. :)
