Dear Abby,
So I spots this flyer sort of an advert for an exhaust part that fits some unknown BMW motorbike hanging on a wall in a shop. The picture is fuzzy and the seller doesn't seem to know what he's got but he's sure it's worth some money. I ring him and we agree to meet at his place. I turn up and am stunned at what I'm seeing and demurely agree to his outrageous price for this 'exhaust part'. I pay him and haul the debris away. Some people in the biz would call the three pieces a 'fat header', 'S' pipe with oxygen sensor, and an aluminium muffler, all made by Remus.
I'm torn up inside. My questions are, should I feel guilty for giving him the princely sum of $150 for the pile of exhaust parts, do I really need them, and should I also be feeling sorry that it isn't exactly K bike-related?
Attached is a picture of the pieces next to a BMW motorbike that they will fit. Gee whiz, I own one of those too. Zoom zoom. I'm eagerly awaiting your answer.
Regards,
TWB
