hi after viewing the link from "is my exhaust legal"i phoned extreme on the 30/9 i ordered a new carbon oval with twin pipes.it was made and delivered to south shields to-day 2/9.i removed my spud launcher and fitted the new can and link pipe ,took about half an hour.looks much better,around a third of the weight of the stock pipe.fitted my panniers ,no problem plenty of clearance,been out for a ride sounds great,have posted a video on you tube ,type effyzzr into the search bar ,then click on the effyzzr,not the 1200 my old bike.

Well I have to say for someone who has always said that "I would never change anything on my Gtr " and " I love my spud launcher " that exhaust looks and SOUNDS FANTASTIC  ;D ;D
How much ???

Oh yeah baby. That's more like it. If I didn't have the Remus I'd be tempted

hi lord rusty pleased you like the exhaust,as i said i am pleased with it,i found the person at the exhaust manufactuer to be very helpful,these are made to order so i believe, you cant complain about the time from ordering to delivery,this cost me £180 + £10 dedlivery.a very good weight saving and seem to be of very good quality.i always thought i would never change mine from standard,but it is isn't rocket scienced to change it  back you still have the original spud launcher.ps this ios a poor video took on my garahe sounds and looks better in the flesh,go on spoil yourself!!!!

Great look, much better than standard. I have just ordered the Blueflame oval with carbon tip hope it looks & sounds as good as yours.

Rusty

Don't termpt me Kieth ... just have a look at the link again   ;D

carvern

Got the same can as you Keith, but I had to make the extension myself to the can bracket to get it to not touch the panniers, did yours come with something or did you make it too?

Another thing have you left the baffles in or not? Don't seem to make slot of difference if you ask me.

hi carvern,the pipe came with the stainless steel bracket,to drop the can slightly,i asked the question before i ordered it,found it better to put the bracket behind the frame bracket now it looks better,never tried the baflles out sounds right the way it is,i do get a bit of a sputter on the overrun though,

carvern

Thanks Keith, will contact extreme stainless to get extension to can bracket. Get the same on the overun myself, not a problem I dont feel though.

Hi folks.
I know this one has lapsed a while, but I was looking at a Boewolf oval carbon can for the GTR I am just about to get. Has anybody fitted a Boewolf? This Extreme silencer sounds rather tasty: wondered how they compare.

Rusty

A friend of mine has a set of Beowolf for his TDR ( he's not right in the head )... I think it's a Yamaha thing ... anyway, he is VERY pleased with his outfit and it sounds very nice too !

coastrider

Thanks for that.
I have heard good things about Boewolf and that their cans are road legal with the baffles in (although I am checking this and asked if they are stamped. Not sure which way to go now, but I am not leaving the spud gun on my bike.
