Jardine RT-1 Slip-ons

After long holidays, and warmer weather than what is common I was able to try out the new Christmas present that I recieved. There was only one thing I really wanted for Christmas, and that was an exhaust system for my Superhawk. Arrived Christmas, and I had the biggest box I had ever seen under the tree, and open it up; sure enough I had a Jardine RT-1 Slip-on exhaust. It it the anodized black aluminum version, it just looks awesome on the bike. I also got some Setup Riding Boots, Tourmaster Riding Pants, and a few other misc. accessories. I hope everyone had a good holiday season, and I hope you like my pics.

Since putting on the exhaust, I have chopped the license plate bracket, as well as I am in the process of putting on new Shock Racing Turn Signals, as well as new front signals, all four being LED's. So, she is unridable right now, but soon I will be riding again, with help from the weather of course..8-)

Nice going, they look great. Bring back memories of my first superhawk I got new when I put the exact same pipes on it. It felt like Christmas and yes they came in that GIANT white Jardine box. Remember the first time I started it up and revved the engine a few times I thought I'd blow the tools off the walls in my dad's garage LOL.

Those are my fathers bikes, KTM LC4, Triumph Speed Triple, Kawasaki ZRX 1100, Aprilia Mille, and Yamaha FJR 1300...

I think the garage and house smells like exhaust 24/7 in the winter...:-D

Did I mention it is pretty loud, or I though so at least...8)

Sorry but sort of a Hi-Jack here. How do you like the ME-Z6's on your SH. I have them on my VFR and M1's on my Hawk GT. I like the fell of them and the M1's. I didn't get very good mileage from the M1's when I had them on my VFR though. I have Dunlops on both of my VTR's and I'm not impressed with them at all. I don't want to get a set of Z6's for the street VTR and then be dissapointed but on the other hand I don't want to go with M1's and blow through the rear in 1800 mi. as I did on the VFR.

I like them, I don't think they are the best, the are not as sticky as I would like, but I am sure I can change that in the future with a new tire purchase, but they don't wear all that fast, which is rather nice too!
