Thanks mate. I'd love a Z1000, but Kawasaki spoilt it for me by bringing out the 2007 version. It made the earlier ones (the ones I can afford :o) look so boring!
So - I think I've settled on a Ducati 749.. I just need to take a test ride to make doubly sure (been on a 748 and loved it).
Too loud for me - not just in volume, but tone is not right too. Totally different to any aftermarket cans I've fitted too.
Leo's are already sold, within 2 days of fitting them. Bike is currently for sale, looking at a GSXR600, Z1000 or a Ducati 749.
Hi guys,
I'm looking to see if there is any interest in my bike. I bought it in March, after trading a GSXR750. I wanted something a bit different, so plumped for the FZ-6. I'm not 100% happy with it though, as it is too much of a performance drop. I want something with more power/race...
Does anyone have, or know where to get, the official dB rating of diiferent exhausts?
In particular, I'm looking for the following:
Stock bike
LeoVince Evo II carbon
Scorpion stainless
Remus
Mivv x-cone
If anyone has any, it would be appreciated. The stock bike is too quiet, the...
OK - cat is back in, db killers are still there - still too noisy :o
This is a real ball ache for me - I bought the bike, knowing I wanted it a bit louder. It seems to have gone from 2/10, straight to 8/10, with nothing in between! I've had 4 GSXR's in the past, 3 with aftermarket cans (the...
I'd be the same mate. You pays your money - it should work first time and be perfect.
I'd have lost the patience by now and be sending it back for a refund :o
I've got pics and vid on my phone (K850), just didnt have the time to load them up! Not got a youtube account (but that can't be too hard..).
What do you mean by 'quiet insert'. The db killers? They're in already..
How do you find the noise of the exhaust as is too? I fitted mine last night, and it seems a bit loud. I'm hoping it's going to quieten down, otherwise it might need the cat putting back in! With db killers out, it sounds possessed!
I was quite suprised to find the frint lifting a bit more...
Three Dependancies..
Depends on the woman
Depends on the tattoo
Depends on the location
My sister has a 'piglet' tattoo in the small of her back - I think that's a bit stupid. If my wife wanted a little star or something on her foot or another place able to be hidden, I'd think it was...
OK, all fitted, no major dramas (other than getting the cat replacement pipe done up nice and tight, and bumping my head on the paddock stand!).
But christ - these are loud. With the baffles in, they are loud, baffles out - I thought I was going to create an earthquake!
Anyone know if...
I got them from a guy called Mauro in Italy (off ebay, user ID is Mauro998).
He's really friendly, and a lot cheaper than the UK. Carbon worked out at £360 delivered (and I think the cat eliminator pipe is in there too). He does the aluminium ones for about £280 delivered, and the titanium...
A nice new pair of carbon Leo's turned up at work today :rockon:
Now getting excited while I wait to fit them tonight. Looks straight forward enough, but more complicated than the 3/4 bolts I'm used to :o
If anyone has any tips they'd be welcome reading while I wish the next 4 hours away...
