Ok so im lookin to get a new pipe. Im new to all of this so ive been relying on pple input. I heard that the FMF pipe witll lighter the bike up 10lbs and has a better sound then the Two Brothers, But Two Brothers is cheaper. Too tell u the truth, i want my bike to be heard (hopefully i can avoid another crash by this) everything else is a plus. Need some better input.

My 2Bros is a sweet pipe and it has a nice deep tone. My buddy had a GSXR1k with a yoshi and he likes mine better[8D] I haven't heard too much about FMF so can't help ya there.

Love my 2 bros. Nice roar and good looks. I know many people think it stick out too much but I think it looks just right.

I like my Yoshi better than my old 2Bros, 2Brows too low for me, I like the high pitch.

The one FMF titanium pipe I have ever heard was on a Gsx-r 750 and it is still to this day the best sounding pipe I have ever heard.

i have 2 brothers and i recommend them for the f4 or f4i unless you want the loudest most annoying sounding pipe than it's going to be the devil, also if you get an exhaust look for the high mount systems they look alot nicer, but keep in mind some of them require you to loose the passenger pegs.

Pupdog, do you know of where you can purchase a kit that allows retaining the passenger pegs for the 2 bros exhaust?

yo you can make it yourself, just need to get longer bolts and collars/sleeves (washers) that basically look like a hollowed out metal tube.

who's talking smack about the whiney weed wacker sounding exhaust...it's called performance baby...not like them deep sounding just for show/sound exhausts.

I had a two bros on my 1k for about a week and took it back. It didn't have a nice sound at all. I've had all kinds of pipes on all kinds of bikes. I gotta tell ya, it droned and made my ears hurt. I'd hold out for something else, but thats just me. Its loud for sure. you'll sure get noticed starting it up, but ride it down the freeway and you'll be ready to run it off into the ditch. lol

if you just want the loudest...D&D is loud.....but I love the sound of my 2-Bros, it is sick...and this is also the #1 reason I bought mine - safety

Had a two bros on my last bike and swore that nothing else would do, bought my new bike (954RR) and it has the C/F D&D slip-on, first thought was to sell it and get a two bros. but then I heard that D&D and WOW great low rumble, very loud, really nice fit and finish. but after all is done "Loud Pipes Save Lives".

BTW cjbettis great piece on those pipe tests

I've got the titanium FMF on my RR and couldn't be happier. Really deep tone and yes it is light.

I retract that previos post, i heard one on an R1 yesterday and i was impressed, not to the point that i would buy one but not hate them anymore. I orginally said it because in their ATV/dirtbike portion of the company they are known for rusting/powerloss/brackets breaking.
