Also my mum and dad were absolutely dead set against them, mum was a nurse and dad a doctor (pathologist to be precise). Don't think any of my cousins ride bikes or have ...

As above really sorry to hear this. Were there many unusual parts worth watching eBay for? Exhaust, sliders etc. I know it's a long shot but if your exhaust turns up with that baffle in... Gutted for you and your dad mate.
