I just rang Grasshopper as well and the guy i spoke to said that they haven't come in yet at all???? He said they are waiting on an update from Blitz as to how many they have in stock and would get back to me in the next couple of days with an update

Still no reply to my e-mail though

Edited to say : took me fooking ages to get through, bloody call waiting and engaged tone....

If that's the case Paul then that is cool... but how come they told me that they were still waiting for them?

Question

Anyone had an update on the above group buy? They said they're taking delivery at the beginning of July, just wondered if anyone had actually got a date???

I know it's only the 2nd but it's just I'm going on Hols next week and was hoping to get it sorted before then. I've E-mailed Grasshopper but don't really expect a reply until at least tomorrow.

Cheers,
Richard.

You appear to have your wires crossed.

The exhausts are in, they are ready for delivery you will all be contacted very soon.

Worried about putting my 2p worth in here, but will do anyway.

Got mine a few days after the group buy closed, think I was lucky as i got the last classic shape one they had in stock at the time. Had it fitted now for about a month and it's awesome.

Trust me, the wait IS worth it! As long as you like it LOUD!

If any of you are at the southend meet pop over and have a listen. I'm more than happy to let you hear it with and without the bung in.

Drop me a mail Duncan and try and meet up so you can have a listen

Cool

So either i have my wires crossed or when i got a phone call from em earlier they hadn't received as many exhausts as was needed & since i was one of last 2 sign up i am having 2 wait a further 2 weeks till the bad boy arrives, they have said it'll be £50 less thou so i guess i'm still a happy chappy although can u stop gloating about the noise for now
