I'd stick to the SF, Char - that's a MAN's bike.

Looks v cool. What do you think of the exhaust, how does it sound? I'm just looking at options to replace the stock cans on mine but don't want to spend £1200 on Termis....

Sorry to butt in.
I like my GPR Powercone. Without the dB killer it's not quiet and I prefer the sound to the Termis I had on my M1100. It only costs £299. |

My friend has a Triumph Rocket III which is derestricted and has straight through pipes. My evo is not as loud on tickover, but give it some throttle on the road and it gives the Triumph a run for its money in the volume stakes. It's not road legal. It wasn't loud enough for my liking (having had an M1100 with unbaffled Termis) so I took it out and reduced the weight of my bike by a few hundred grams in the process ;-) Yes I really like the look. I was seriously considering have something similar custom made until I came across the Powercone. |

Thank you mate, it's a renthal, not sure of the amount of teeth but it looks good, which is important, I'm hoping for some dry roads to have a good go on it, rode up the cafe yesterday with new cold tyres on wet roads, not ideal! |

I actually think yours may be a bit louder at tickover, but I think that mine may be a little deeper sounding. It's definitely bigger than mine (ooh err missus ). I think it may be 42T (although it looks bigger) as that is the most likely change from the standard 39T if you are sticking with a 15T front. It's about the equivalent of dropping the front to 14T. Maybe we can find out by doing some side by side acceleration tests That's much more fun than counting teeth on sprockets. |
