Title: oohhoohhoo EbayUK is a very baaad place
Post by: Gungho1989 on June 19, 2010, 05:11:39 AM
I may get into trouble with the UK version of Ebay!!  :twisted:

Now question. I have been wanting to go to a new pipe, Was wanting a bit more power and a better sound.
 Now a disclaimer I'm pretty green on this stuff so any help is appreciated and opinions welcome even scathing.  :)

 Is this a good setup. Or is staying with a dual set the better way to go.
and what is involved I know I will need a good set of jets.

I would check with them it is for a steamer. I know it says all years but steamer is double sided stock and there is only one set of pipes. Don't look like enough parts to convert a steamer to single sided to me.

that won't fit a steamer and it will be extremely LOUD and if it did add any HP it would be minimal

Definitely don't want it loud, I prefer a little more throaty but don't want obnoxious.
  I have looked at some other pipes but the cost of them is always a deal killer for me, I'll find a deal eventually I am sure or will bite the bullet and tell the wife some guy in Russia got our CC# ordered me these parts for no apparent reason.  :twisted:

  Sure was a lucky thing they will work on my Tiger!!

 Any way what Pipes are you guys running? Are they worth the Jack?

Hadn't thought of that one  :lol: but she's probably smart enought to realise Visa will cover proven fraudulent transactions  :(

I managed to blag a set of "New Old Stock" Motad stainless Venoms from the maker through eBay UK at a reasonable price, another US guy looked into it but decided even with the cost saving the frieght was just too much.

I am still on the original cans, also made by Motad, which are a bit patched, so haven't tried them out yet. They provided two baffles so at least you have some options, I'm interested to see how they work with the standard carb settings.

I have some Yoshimuras on mine.  It brings out the triple beautifully, like good seasoning on a steak.  It sounds like a sport car.  louder than most, but not obnoxious loud.  It is quiet at low revs, but when it hits 5,000 it is a symphony!!!
