| Re: Carbon Fiber RC! Yo checked out your gallery, sweet RC! What's up with the exhaust? I have never seen a setup with those cans, that's bada$$. I am new hear and will get a Rc soon. I hear Sato's are the way to go. How does your setup match against them? I'm just looking for a exhaust setup thet looks bada$$ but produces real HP. |

| Re: Carbon Fiber RC! Thanks, my exhaust is actually Sato/Akrapovic, I used Sato mids with the Akra cans. I have alot of mods done so when I put it together I ended up getting a full custom map done and ended up with 132hp, Im happy with that but of course Id love to get more hp but I need to remove the side radiators and get some front mounts, or Thorstens scoops cuz even right now its runnin pretty hot.
I Might even sell that set up so I can have Thorsten make me the Undertail set up like the pics or maybee have him do a set up like Edwards WSBK set up. |

| Re: Carbon Fiber RC! I'm not feeling it.... too much black
I think it'd look better with at least some badging on it, like the stickers the stock RC-51 has, but that's just me
it really needs something to break up all the black tho |
