jardine on backorder

it seems the Jardine RT-1 carbon fiber dual outlet slip-on is in hot demand. i ordered one last week without being told they were on "nation wide" back order. now i'm in this agonizing state of purgatory.

Re: jardine on backorder

That was one of my choices also but I ended up going with the Akrapovic CF Hex Slip On. Damn nice pipe in looks and sound, but it was a toss up. I made my choice based on the loudness of the pipe. I had never heard either one and was told the Jardine was much louder. After hearing my Akra when I cranked it up, if that was true I'm glad I went with Akra for that reason alone.

The Jardine is a sweet looking pipe and good luck on getting it in soon!

Not to tempt you or anything but if you get too impatient, here is what it looks like on the bike with the Jardine FE, CA tail light to get rid of the rear signals and the proton flush mounts up front.

Re: jardine on backorder

Ah man, i've been through the "nation wide' back order issue before. I ordered a set of performance cylinder heads for my old Mustang 5.0. I waited THREE FREAKIN' weeks without a word from the company I ordered from. Then when i called them up they said Edelbrock was totally backordered. I ended up canceling the order.

You've got to be kidding! that's outrageous. I can't wait to open my shop making cf and fiberglass parts. From the sounds of it I can have a good market share of OPP's business because they screw their customers.
