| Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust Went to Matlock Bath the other day and had a crowd round mine at one point. They were probably trying to work out how the rear pegs come off
I'll stay in touch via PM with the people I want to on that forum. Shame as it seemed a nice place, but like you say, once you sell the Ape they talk to you like $hit.
Funnily enough I know one of the members in Oz and he is just trying to get a white blade. They are not in Oz by standard but his dealer may get some, and then he will probably buy. I'll drop him a line and suggest he doesn't mention it..........ever  |

after about 2 months of use on my gixxer the pipe started sounding funny, so i took the carbon cover off and the pipe was coming apart at the seams and all the rivets holding the pipe together were coming loose, also check out the taylor made thread on gixxer forum, to c what else can happen...... |

| Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust Putting on dino next week hopefully so will post results, this is a link to taylormade sound clip, probably a better job than i can do. http://www.racetaylormade.com/tmpage...sol_robert.mp3 it doesn't really do it justice it sounds more like a yoshi straight through system in reality

| Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust Atm I cant see a reason to change the exhaust, especially as Honda claim that the mapping is really difficult, dont want to loose out for just more noise |

| Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust Posting for the first time ...Hi to everyone here. I ordered Jardine carbon slip on for my 08 1000 rr (black on black) today for $425.00 + $20.00 shipping. I didn't want a too loud of a pipe like the two brothers. besides I like the shape of Jardine better and i think the carbon fiber look will go better with the black bike. Also it comes with the heat shield to cover the naked pipe underneath. So far the mods I've done to it are Renthal grey grips, vortex frame sliders and Bike litez undertail. Here's a pic without the Jardine slipon http://www.fireblades.org/gallery/fi...1_original.jpg

| Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust I have put this on another thread and think it should have gone on this one instead as follows:-
Just fitted an Akrapovic evo system with PC111 and pipercross filter.It was set up with a custom map at Crescent Suzuki and did 170.45 BHP and 80.94 ft-Lbs at the wheel.There is a huge difference to the low and mid range power and torque an feels just perfect now.Have a look at the "Anyone dynoed their 08 blade " thread to look at dyno sheet. |
