Default Cheaper LOR pipe

hey guys check out this link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GP-St...item4cec210700

it a pipe made for a r1 but it could cheaply and easily be modified to fit our bikes, its the exact same style as the LOR carbon fiber pipe... looks pretty sharp too..... for 160 bucks ide say its worth a shot

they also offer a titanium version

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GP-TI...item4ceafe003c

and a gp version this one is stainless but after emailing them they said in two months they will have a titanium version of this available..... i think ill be ordering a exhaust for then and fittin it to my bike...

for the obvious reasons.... fabrication allows me to mount pipes for less money and different styles that are manufactured for our bikes.... i can honestly say im not to impressed with any of the pipes made for the f4i except a few and they are outrageously expensive

it took me like 2 hours if that to modify the exhaust i have now and i saved hundreds whats wrong with custom fitting?

They just dont have the finished look I'm use to is all. they look good, welds look nice, even look better than my old worn out D&D. It may just be the tips on the ti n carbon cans, a rolled lip looks nicer, better quality look to it.

The gp can, eh think its just not my style lol, that and I've heard M4's version and its loud as hell lol.

agreed on the rolled lip.... i like my pipes loud (but not a straight pipe loud) maybe thats why its my thing idk.... but they are comin out with a titanium of that gp style pipe in two months so i may see what the price tag is on there once they come out and go with that.... im also thinking about taking the middle section of the muffler itself and having it powder coated satin black... so its got more of a less flashy tone

with my F4 I would go with the carbon one. I mean if I had a stock pipe n a limited budget to get a nicer one, then one of those would work. But if I had the extra $$$ I'd get a yoshi etc.

I like the look of my D&D too, but mine sits higher than others I've seen.
