difference in stainless and titanium?
I am purchasing a yoshi rs5, but i cant decide whether to go with the stainless or the titanium. What is the real difference between the two? Sound? Longevity? just wondering. thanks

as far as sound...probably not much. longevity...both will last a long time and will not rust out on you.
check this out...after you ride a long while, etc...and you put your hand on a ss pipe, you will say OWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHH..$*$&$&$$&*$**$ instantly.
with the ti pipe...you will say...wow...it's very warm and pull your hand off of it.
both will tarnsih a bit over time but you can polish right out. Ti is significantly lighter than SS.
i'd go for ti.

+1 for tahoe but in english titanium is lighter and is cooler to touch, stainless is shinny and bling

I went through the same thought process when I got mine. I ended up getting the SS one because I like the look better. Wieght is so minimal that I didnt' think it was that big of a factor.
