Sorry damo I've struggled to justify the Ł73.50 I'm spending on the Bailey valve let alone Ł185+vat for the Spec-R one
..The main reason for wanting one is to relive a part of my youth and I had a Bailey one back in the day on my FRST which I have fond memories of.. plus I know Bruce at Bailey and his brother Lee at RPM and the black DV I'm getting will match the anodised black tanks Bailey will do me in the new year

Some new pro alloy and quip bling, plus some silicon boost and water hoses.

Just need a grp a strut brace, proalloy and quip breather and a RS500 style cooler so I can lighten the load and get rid of the chargecooler upgrade kit.
