Not to pick a fight here, but most of the stealerships I've talked to have cautioned me about Jardine's quality. They've also said Akrapovik is just about the best made product offered. Again, just what I've been told...still went with the Yosh anyway

 

anyone have a yoshi they want to sell or trade for stock exhaust?

 

Try listening to these. Might give you an idea about the sounds.

Well, one thing is for sure, they all sound way better than stock

 

Plus $250, sure. Where you located?

 

just installed the RS-5 system yesterday. Sounds pretty sweet. It's far louder than stock, but any louder I think would just be excessive.I parked it at work this morning, and when I got off, I realized my ears were ringing a little. Might have to start using earplugs now. Oh well. If the Jardine slip is louder than this, I'm definately glad I didn't buy one!
Also, the install was kind of a bitch, not much room to work with downnear the header.To get thepipe all the way down, I ended up having to tap thewelded nuton the sideof the pipe that's for the heat shield with a hammer. Not the smartest idea, I know, but I couldn't muscle the thing in any more and wd-40 didn't seem to help.Also, I was wondering,is it normal to see white smoke coming out of the exhaust when you cut the motor for the first few times you ride after the install? It's not oil or anything, and it could very well be the WD I sprayed down there to slide on the pipe, butI'm not sure. Anyone else notice that right after they installed new exhaust?

 

oh, and anyone have any links to where i can land a plate light? Just did the FE kit and I'm prob gonna need one at some point, although I don't really ride much at night. thanks

when i went to buy my bike, there were 2 rr's there..one had a Jardine slip-on, and the other had a Scorpion...the Jardine was way quiter and had a higher pitch to it...if you want to sound like a gp bike check out the Scorpion..thats the one i went with......sounds crazy, but it is louder then most
