rc51 2 into 1 pipe????

I noticed a rc 51 with a single pipe on one side, was just wondering what the power characteristics were and how it sounded etc...

Power i read was decent with the Jardine. I think that the bike supposedly lost some of the mid punch. Sounded OK to me.

Re: rc51 2 into 1 pipe????

was wondering why no one thought of making a under the seat 2 into 1 pipe for the rc?

to many bends??

btw i laugh at those tucked in pipes for the rc's those rc's are losing power because of that bend, however, fo the look I would give in and go for a centered type pipe for it.

anyone make it or have tried?

One Mr. Colin Edwards rode to his 2nd WSBK title like that so I guess he managed.

I was told those high pipes rob power, because of the extra bend maybe it only pertains to inlines, i dunno.
