loud pipes

Duke have you got you Remus on the bike yet?? If so how do you like them and can you give a sound clip

 

I've just had Staines fitted to my '05. Not as loud as i expected with spuds out, but a nice note all the same.
With spuds in only slighty louder than stock.
Now i also just had the 1000klm(600 mile) service done so it may be coincidence, but the flat spot/surging in the 4-5000rpm range is also smoothed out.
Either way i'm happy with the pipes, they fit in well with the look of the bike and very nice ' shiney (will be PITA to keep shiny i imagine).

 

got a 98 with a TWO BROs slip on sounds mean as HELL..

 

Hey Spud,

The Remus pipes should be here Thurs. or Fri. if so i'm putting them on this weekend. I'll take some pics and let you know how they sounds.

Have you decided yet?

 

I ordered the Titanium Remus today and they say it should be here by Friday.. I hope it is the sound I am looking for.. Glen at sporttour says it sound like the Micron and from the sound clips I've heard I like the sound of the Microns the best..

 

nice... keep me posted.

 

since putting the microns on my silver 03, i've nicknamed it Silverback because it sounds like a gorilla is chasing your ass down.

let us konw how ytou like the remus. i couldn't get past the name:redface:

 

Duke did you get your pipes in today?? Just curious.. mine are os schedule to be here tomarrow

 

Love my TBR .I have had no issues with my pipe with quality fit and finish.

Too each there own.:smile:

Here are a few shots of it.

 

I love that VFR in black. What year is that bike? I didn't know they ever came in black.

 

2004 had "asphalt" black (flat black, with some metal flake)
2006 has "Pearl Black metalic

 

Is your VFR post-2001? I thought that they all had undertail exhausts for the 6th generation?

 

Got my Remus exhaust today and WOW what a differance. Power is very noticable and the sound is GREAT.. At Idle and low speeds it sounds great.. Once you get up to speed the wind and motor dround out the exhaust sound.. But they look and sound great.. I am very pleased...

 

Hey Spud how much you pay for them and did you get them from sportour?
how about some pics?

 

I got a great deal at sporttour.. Got the titaniums.. I will get some pics after I wash and wax the bike..

 

Can't wait to see them.......how about the cost? I've talked to Glen over at Sporttour in the past and I believe the cost was just under $700.00 I'm leaning more towards the Staintunes, but the're more money.

 

the polished are $695 and the titanium and CF are $779 but they didnt have any polished in stock so he hooked me up with some titaniums..

 

yup, just got my Remus Titanium from sporttour as well!

My package is missing a few small nuts and washers, and the DAMN INSTRUCTION MANUAL if there is one!

I found a manual online, but it'll be a while until I'm ready to install, since I've got to wait for my bike to get outta the shop on all the rest of the repairs.

I weighed the pipe and mufflers just a few hours ago. I did it on a digital body scale, so the accuracy is only within .5 lbs. But, just for the record, the mid-pipe weighs ~4.5 lbs, and each Titanium muffler weighs ~3.5 lbs. each. I think my scale is pessimestic, so lets assume thats a max weight. I think www.onewheeldrive.net tested the exhaust at 10lbs near exactly.

I'll do video and pics (including weight pics) as soon as its all buttoned up, and the bike is rolling again...

 

That was my second choice, they sound great but a little to loud for me, I went with the Staintunes, because it gave me a choice, A little louder than stock or wake up the neighbors loud, but still not as loud as the D&D's

 

That looks like one pissed off pussy cat!
