I have the Jardine RT-1 and all i can say is.....WOW. I love it. Good low end, and the higher you rev it, the tighter it gets. Sounds really close to my buddie's R6 with a micron, but alot tighter up high then the micron is.

damn you and your not-round silencer! i was mezmerized by the beauty of the 2bros carbon and endcap to notice the size difference in the pics. i have to admit, the m2h is hands down the nicest looking slip-on that i have ever seen.

So the RS5 sounds pretty much stock as far as loudness is concerned, but throatier. So how does the 2 Bros M2H sound? Too bad there's no sound clips floating around out there.

I disagree with that. I think it is much deeper and louder over the stock exhuast. Not to loud but you can definitly tell a difference.

That wasn't my opinion, I haven't heard either exhaust in person. I was just quoting Don and reiterating what he had said about when he heard the RS5 on another bike.

It is my opinion... the RS5 on the ZX6 sitting right beside a 600RR with stock exhaust. The loudness was about the same. It is louder... just not a big difference for the money.

Have you heard an RR with the Yoshi?? Seems mine is so much louder than stock. Not trying to be an ***, just want to post my opinion also. I know that exhaust tone gets beat to death hear and just wanted to offer another opinion and give people as much info as possible.

You might call your local dealer (even though I very much dislike mine)....they probably know of a guy with one and would get him to meet ya so you can hear it

they offered to do this when I was trying to figure out between the RS-5 and 2-Bros

you gotta see and hear 1st hand to decide
