the fit was spot on...probably the best fitting exhaust i have had and the weight savings is another benefit.

no problems with melting fairings, the fit was perfect and as for power gains i went from 125 to 138 at the wheel

to go a little off topic here I've always meant to ask you, how does the Arata compare to the Sato?

HondaGalToo · 03-23-2008, 9:23 AM

In terms of performance gains, both are about the same. Depends on how much you want to spend, the Arata costs more. Can't go wrong with either, and yeah, you'll gain about 10-12 hp with a PCIII that has a custom map made specifically for your bike.

performance wise...i like the sato better but liked the way the arata fit and the sound.

I`d go for titanium arata...

hikaru · 04-12-2008, 12:04 PM

micron is cheap but the arata header is titanium. The micron header give me a tough time to fix it up b'cos of the weird shape.

rokitt51 · 04-12-2008, 1:05 PM

Out of the 2, i like the Arata the most.

superbs929rr · 04-12-2008, 2:25 PM

i ended up getting a hidle full titanium system cause i picked one up for 400. It sounds really nice and throaty and the power and torque was improved a lot. For the price hindle was very nice !!!

adnewcome · 05-17-2008, 4:12 PM

I have a hindle slip on right now and im considering buying the rest of the system from hindle. but is it really worth it? i dont plan on running a PC on the bike and since most people with a full system have a PC, will running without one make the bike run like crap?

superbs929rr · 05-17-2008, 4:25 PM

yea u need a pc if you want it to run good and not bogg down real bad

I gotta full micron serpent. It sounds good, its on the quiet side.He headers were a Mother to put on but all in all took me about 1.5 hour for complete install.

Platinum929 · 06-23-2008, 6:41 PM

I voted for Micron, because my 929 and my 954 have full Micron with Serpent headers. I've not gotten an exhaust for my 08 blade yet, but it's coming. I just don't know what it's gonna be yet.

D3f3ND3R · 06-25-2008, 4:19 PM

i think he micron sounds great i like that hush performance sound of their full sys. I currently have a full TwoBrothers exhaust which i liked because it sounds powerful compared to what ive heard.

K89052 · 08-08-2008, 9:04 PM

Arata. Fits great and sounds good.

lunardogracing · 08-08-2008, 10:19 PM

i have a full serpentine micron with the ultralight can. i`m happy with it. but i`ve recently heard that micron halted all production on the motorcycle exhausts and are only concentrating on their automotive lines of exhaust. of coarse i`ve only seen micron automotive exhausts in racing

Micron is a good pipe, but Arata is way above them in quality.

Here's my a link to my old RC with before and after sound clips.

Arata

tuffy6969 · 08-09-2008, 8:51 PM

Full Ararta....sounds AWESOME!!!!

hotstuff · 08-27-2008, 1:57 PM

I have an 07 CBR1000 and ran it stock on a dyno and it only had 144hp on the wheel. It was flat at the top end and could only get 287kph. I was dissapointed as my old 05 model was much quicker with 149hp. I put on a PC3 and a full Arata titanium system and also pipercross road air filters and reset it on the dyno and now have 159.5hp and the difference on the road is definitely worth the cash outlay. The Arata sounds like a Banshee at high RPM.
