I just ordered a set of D&D in the black satin. They are on there way! Like johnnyhonda said, they are a great price at under $500 ($478 to my door).

Anyone have MIG pipes, for sale etc etc REALLY want a set of MIGs but no where to be found.

Blurr

Also I have some used DD carbons for sale that came off my bike before I got my jardines I have now.

Just want a higher exit system and all I seen was migs, devils and staintunes.

I find the jardines are WAY too loud

IIRC, MIG went out of business about a year ago. Don't know if it still holds true or if they were rebought.

MisterMohawk

I'd also heard MIG went out of business but according to Exotic Sportbike's MIG exhaust page http://www.exoticsportbike.com/honda16.htm they're back in business. However, if you click the VTR link it says they're out of business, but I think the not that they're IN business is more recent. I suggest you call.

Eurobikes.com still sells Migs but I no longer see them listed for superhawks.

Thanks for the offers. I had a D&D on my F2, but was so dang loud. I'm wanting a good bass, but also able to ride in neighborhood at night without waking everyone up.

D&D are LOUD! Had cf Jardines on the RC but the D&D sound is neck snapping. However, D&D doesn't make a high mount

I did the mod, if that's what you call it, where you drill a couple of holes in the stock pipes tonight. It improved the sound, but still not deep enough rumble for me.

I am looking for some slip ons now, but this will work for the moment.

I ordered a pair on Jardine RT-1 black high mounts. They just came in today while I was working. Im going to throw them on tomorrow and Ill let you know how they sound because I was looking for a bassier sound also.

Does anyone have the 2 brothers slip ons? I found a set online and was interested in them. I have had them on other bikes, but not the sh.

I don't know which ones I would like to have. I have it narrowed dow to jardine, 2 brothers and maybe d&d. Also, are the scorpion exhausts any good?

Rofest

Ive seen 2Bros on some Duc Monsters and they sound low and loud. Prob the same sound on the 996. Was not impressed with MIG. Thought MIGs sounded better on 4 bangers. If you want a loud, low bass sound and don't want to drop a ton of cash, hit the D&D or 2Bro cans

GeMs

I just put the Jardines on today. Took about an hour by myself. I was very anxious to start it up and when I did I was extremely happy with the sound. Its a very deep rumble. Very bassy. Not extremely loud, but nowhere near quiet. They are nice.

I have the 2Bros SO ovals, they are not too loud but I wear ear plugs anyway. People say they sound sweet. I repacked them with SS wool and ceramic HT packing rather than glass, so they're a bit louder but will never burn out (though will clog up). They are light and OK quality. I got mine like-new for $200 used. With the PAIR disabled and OEM filter, I shimmed the stock needles .040" and run 180r/178f on the main jets, with the fuel screws about 2 turns out. Mileage is about 33 average, 38 high and 28 low. I adjusted the fuel sensor arm in the tank so the OLOD shines at 110 miles average, or with 6/10ths of a gallon remaining.

The prices for d&d are really affordable, but I like the look of the 2 brother pipes better, so I am torn.

I think someone on here had some used d&d pipes for sale, but never could get prices.

I want the carbon look, but are they really lighter than the stainless steel pipes? If they are the same weight, I may go ss to save some money.
I hate that the manufacturer web sites doesnt include details like weight and etc.

skokievtr

Carbon and Ti are the lightest, then AL then SS. In my experience, carbon does not hold up well on big twins and TI cans have a tendency to develop hot spots that discolor the sleeve on large twins; plus they are both much more expensive (in relation to the weight savings). Carbon cans do sound mellower but also do not survive tipovers very well in comparison. SS is the most durable but why go that route for weight and cost reasons?

Let me first say it's my first post here.
I have a '99 FireStorm with Italian full fairing (can't remember the guy's name anymore) Painted in the typical 2000-2002 RR Honda Wing on the side panels, in black and yellow (wing). Decals are also '97 yellow.
I just bought a pair of Remus high mont cans off ebay.co.uk.
Anyone here got them? They are European made (Austria I think) a quite pricy as new. But I've allways facied the look and sound of them.
I've owned a '97 firestorm, that I had from '98 to 2001. Got another one in 2000 and used it for rookie racing that year and parked it (long storry but a crash of the other one and customs rules made that a smart option) Got the same bike on the road in 2005.
In between those years I've been racing (at club level) with my Aprilia RS250.

I've been on off VTR mail-lists and now I wonder. Does this forum originate from the original mail-list?

nativegolf

I've seen where exoticsportbike.com has Leo Vince for 510 - standard mount and 610-high mount.

Started liking the high mount system. Does anyone with high mounts put on saddle bags? Seems like there is enough overhang by the rear fairing, but wanted to check with someone.
Any pics with high mount and saddle bags?

Hawkrider

You must have the Mario Nava fairings! Now, before anyone else says it:

Yeah, Michael Amisano founded the forum after RLZ went away. Before that it was zikzak and before that I think it was sport-twin.com. How far back do you go?

The screen name sounds familiar but I can't remember your name, or where you're from. From the looks of the email ".no" is Norway?

Babelfish

Pictures will arrive soon

Yes it's marios fairings. I was working in Italy and met with him and the guy who actually make the stuff. Funny thing is that when I brought the fairing home from Italy I arrive the city only to see a huge fire down town. That was my appartment and high monts going up in fire.

As I've said I have been on and off. Think I was around allready with sport-twin.com the first time, in '98.
Specifically remember a well off guy from the bay-area that allways ended up in endless discussions. Had a horrible crash but very lucky and went on racing club racing I think. What was his name, not "Whiner" but close?

And, yes I'm from Norway.

Babelfish

Basically the same as now, but a new irridium screen.
As you can see the original exhaust have clear signs of frequent contact with the ground. That's why I'm happy to get a pair of Remus cans now

I have MIG exhaust on my bike. I bought them off ebay about 3 yrs. ago. I had to mod them to get the sound I wanted......LOUD! I still gotta figure a way to my rear pegs back on the bike.
