which

 

from a performance standpoint which one is better ?

 

ARATA all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

you would actually be suprised at how close they actually are

brad from superbikesupply.com posted a dyno sheet of each on the same bike within a few minutes of each other and they dynoed almost identical.
the post is on 1000rr.net if you want to go have a look.

did i mention that the hamaguchi is full ti, has welds equal to arata,
only weights 9lbs and was being sold for 900 bucks from ridersinc.com

 

That's almost 1/2 the price of Arata

 

great price-wow-especially on the 06's on up baxsom-with hamagucci -aka sudco-don't u have to trim o the lower front right fairing with hamaguccis? for some reason this sticks in my mind-thought i saw pics of this needing to be done on www.1000rr.net-phil
