Aussies....show us your ride!

[Wolfman]

Guys I'm wanting to get a new exhaust for my bike...
I see it's been brought up on the forum heaps of times.
But what do you Aussies recommend and what have you guys got on your bikes, or had? I'm thinking early next year I'll get some Two Brothers pipes shipped from America. I think it will work out cheaper than getting them from Team Moto...

Any help or feedback is appreciated.

If your thinking Two Bro's...i hope you like being LOUD! They are very f***ing loud! And yes Kazza & Humpy, i know you guys like the Scorp's, but they are NOT anywhere near as loud as the TB's, they are more refined, and do sound great...

The Leo's are OK, but i think they drone at touring speeds...in fact i am taking my Leo's off for the tour of Tassie, and putting back on the OEM pipes...it's just a pain in the A when 2 up...cant hear each other, etc, etc...

:thumbup:

Thanks for the feedback!
I would like to be loud! A loud bike is a safe bike... right?

But then again, anything will be louder and sound better than the stock exhaust. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

I'll definately have to meet up with some of you guys and see your bikes in person one day.

Again, thanks for the help.

Team Moto did have some left over very very rare Micron cans :drool: :drool: but if they are gone then one word springs to mind Scorpion :thumbup: No better on the market IMO

If you get the TB's you have the advantage of the silencers you can add!
My M4's are too loud even with custom silences bolted into the ends, and it can get annoying. (Earplugs for long trips are a must)
Anyone got a video of their Scorpions?

That being said my current riding is mainly through school and high pedestrian zones, and no one can say they didn't hear me coming, which is good since pedestrians are the main risk, since they apparently don't understand the difference between a pedestrian crossing and a normal road, or the difference between a red and green light. In fact pedestrians seem to be getting steadily stupider and will catch up to bicyclists soon!

Thanks for all your input guys.
That Scorpion can sounds awesome on your XJR.

I did find some Leo Vince cans that I can get shipped to Australia for under $600. I don't know whether to wait and save the extra couple of hundred and buy something here from Aus, or get it shipped from overseas.

They sound pretty good on my FZ too

One day I'll post a video up .........

I think $600 is a great deal. I don't know if you'll get anything cheaper for a while. My scorps were @ $850 landed in Aus - dealer wanted @$1400 at the time!

Also thinking of new mirrors one day.
Maybe some red rim tape too. Lol.

Here is my 08 FZ6S. I have Micron slip-ons, Piper Cross air filter and regeared. Also have some ghost flames on side panels below seat and have a pc3 in the next couple months planned.

Nice! Don't see too many with Microns these days. Flames are subtle too - very nice.
