great idea for a thread!

when i get my SS termis installed this week i will take a better video than that one and post it up.

Someone bring my a 696, and I'll make a really really cool exhaust for it  [thumbsup]

Stainless Termi's arrived today via UPS.  I'll update with some pics installed on thursday after it gets done.  For now here are some pre install pics of the goods.  they are much more reflective/polished than i was expecting.  the catalog doesnt depict them being this shiny at all IMO.  its nice, but it will take some getting used to thats for sure.

Box is in good condition even though it came from all the way across the pond.  [beer]

The stainless looks great!  I'm getting the carbons put on tomorrow, hopefully they will look as good.    [thumbsup]

can the stickers come off?

i meant to post that...i think you have been asking that for quite some time.

Yes, it seems like the stickers CAN come off...i didnt pick at mine really because i think i may leave them on.  they seem like just regular stickers, so im not exactly sure how they are going to hold up to the heat.  CF cans dont really get hot like stainless does....so ill be interested to see how they hold up.  hopefully they will still come off at a later date after being baked on.


what do you guys think?  cleaner with the stickers on or off?

Where are you located?

Got the Termi's installed today, all I can say is the bike is completely different now. The hesitation at low RPM is gone, it shifts smoother because the revs dont drop as much between shifts. Its really loud though, but it sounds great. When I downshift it sounds like a gun going off.  I really just cant believe how much better it runs now, worth every penny. 

are the instructions in the box? are there tips to putting them on?

Raux, I put mine on myself. The instructions come in the box, but as I am quickly learning, those crappy photocopied instructions are pretty useless. The photos are hardly useful and the text is somewhat confusing. It's actually easier to wing it, then try and follow the instructions.

If anyone is thinking about doing it yourself, know that you should just dive in as its pretty easy. As a matter of fact, the cans come off soooo easy, its almost off putting to think that in under 2 minutes your new CF termi's could be gone (if you know what you are doing). Two bolts, pop the springs....boom, your pipes are gone.  :o

The bigger pain in the butt is the gas tank. If feels like there are a million screws holding that plastic on. And then when you do get all the tank plastic off, you have to start to pull hoses off, etc, just to get to the air filter and ECU. But once you're in, you're in. Couple things to note, make sure you run your gas down to reserve. It will help deal with tank removal. If you have any kind of accessories that require connection to the battery, now would be a good time to hook those up too. It's pretty nuts to think that if you have get to the battery, you have to go through this really long process. I am absolutely getting a trickle charger for winter storage. There is no way I am going through this process again if it can be avoided.

Anyway, swap everything out, reassemble and go have fun. Make sure those baffles come out! It took some getting used to at first, but I can't go back to the stock sounding pipes. The termi's with baffles sound almost identical to stock. So why bother, right? Take'em out...

And I agree with  S2K, the bike runs like a whole new machine. I haven't even brought the bike to the shop to reset the TPS. But I need to soon. Over the last couple hundred miles with the termi's, the amount of popping upon deceleration has increased.

now that indy undertail is basically as perfect a look as you can get on the new 696, do they make the same thing that looks as good for teh older monsters?

nice job.

I don´t know what they are but, they´re cool  [thumbsup]

They look like straight pipes but of a thick carbon fiber.

look too skinny.  The stock are way to fat.  I like the arrow ones the best so far

Those pipes are crazy. I can only imagine how loud those are. And what's with that chin fairing? I am not a huge fan of chin fairings, but somehow, that looks very good.

Anyone know who makes that? Or do is it custom like those pipes? I would almost contemplate getting one for my bike.

Does anybody know about warranty issues after installing the Termi system?   

 My dealer wanted to install my pipes but I ended up taking them home with me because I traveled 400 miles to buy the bike and when I got there decided to take the Termis' with it. They couldn't do the install until the next day so that was that. I went home installed them easily and the bike ran like crap. It turned out to be the coil issue all along and stopped me from running them for a month or two. After the coil fix it worked better than ever with them installed. I never had the dealer set up the TPS either but it seems to be fine if not a touch lean around 4000 rpm.

could those be the stock cans with the shells removed.....?
looks like the same shoulder...

if you are referring to the italian motoblog bike below. i think they could have kept the front, then just from the elbow back put a straight pipe on. but the elbow doesn't have the shield bracket and if they took it off they cleaned it up perfect.

If a dealer installs the system you get a 2 year warranty on the Ducati Performance parts - and of course your initial factory warranty on the bike stays in tact.

and isn't it a one-year warranty on the parts for defects even if you install it?

I've never heard that, but it could be true. I've never looked into that though. If I can find some info on it I'll post up.

interesting. just check ducati.com faq and it says only one year on parts IF the dealer installs. i bet there is more info elsewhere.

We just received these pictures of the QD Ex -Box for the M696:

Brian said we were going ot offer a pre-delivery discount on these--I'm not sure what the cut off date wil be because he is putting in an order for them today. Si it won't be for a long time.
You can reach Brian at accounting@motowheels.com for more details. It is not on the website yet--but it will be up this week.

(http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e344/Motowheelscom/QuatD/QD696Xboxangle.jpg)

interesting look, but it takes away the clean underside of the bike. how much ground clearance is lost with that? wish they would have kept the horizontal pipe run and ran it down into the exhaust. seems they just used the old style pipes on this one.

maybe with a chin fairing it would look better.

someone should photoshop the Barracuda fairing onto this bike.

i agree with Raux.  the exhaust looks out of place on the bike.  the 696 is a totally new bike so it only seems right to have a totally new design for the exbox.  it doesnt seem to flow well with the new lines of the bike at all.  maybe it would look better on a single sided swinger, but not this monster thats for sure.

I think it would look better in black with a chin fairing.  I like the open negative space between the wheel and the seat.
-DirtyRonin

i agree with the above posters...

i'm not feelin' it

So other than the Termi's, has anyone had any real world experience with any of the other brands listed??
Are the others without the ECU really worth the money, or are they just bling? They range in price from
$799-$1300 based on what they are made of. I'm leaning towards the Mivv Suono ($1200'ish), or the SC Project
Carbon, which just popped up on Ebay, $950'ish delivered to the states.

someone here is running the Leo Vince pipes i think.

The best thing about the Termi's is when you start the bike the display scrolls M696 RACING. Dont get that from those other ones!  ;D

ok, been away awhile.

what are the prices ranges for the new exhausts for the 696

The QD is not as nice as it is on the previous model... but it is not too bad... it is the down pipe that throws it off.

My buddy and I are looking to custom slip ons. I'll post pics when we are finished... think 1098

I'd love for somebody to come out with a cool looking undertail exhaust!!!  Please post up when you're done!

These ones from Fresco are quite sweet. I like the length, the hanger is a bit ghetto

Has anyone tried to modify the stock exhaust on the 696? 

I know on some bikes, say Honda CBR 600RR simply punched out one baffle will make the stock pipe sounds quite a lot better.  On the MTS, someone open up the stock exhaust (a lot of work) and modify the internals and weld it back up together.  It sounds pretty good at the end.

Just wondering if anyone has tried something similar for the stock 696 exhaust?

I can't tell which looks better. the thinner Evo

(http://www.sc-project.com/prodotti/ducati/monster_696/sc_project_monster_696_gp_evo_03.jpg)


or the thicker Ovals


(http://www.sc-project.com/prodotti/ducati/monster_696/sc_project_monster_696_oval_05.jpg)

I like the thicker ovals better. The other one looks like it went swimming in a cold pool.

They are selling the Ovals in CF with CF caps for 680 Euro. I think that's for the set. if so that's a great price. MAYBE time to convince the wife.

Found a site with the Zards being available in a few days. 800-1000 euro for SS or TI

not sure where to find this, but found this clip on youtube while looking for something else.

Thoughts?

I had seen that and i think it was in the first post on this. it's a one-off with custom Lazer exhausts. i think out of Italy.

By the way...
I hate telling you guys this. well cause i want them for myself first. But I found a slip on set of CF with CF tips for 410 Euro plus shipping. The are from www.roadsitalia.com Check out Picture 1 from their front page.

Just wanted to add my pics of the Arrow slip-ons to this thread...  [thumbsup]

(http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/pp17/wisdesign/Christmas_Mods_6.jpg)

Definitely the thinner Evo.

meant to ask you how did you black out the arrow wording?

+1

Sandpaper (180 grit), masking tape to protect the cans, black ceramic high-heat paint, and a satin clear coat to top it off.  Mixed in with a bit of patience and experimentation of course...

they look great  [thumbsup]

it does 'lighten' the look of the rear.

They look great.

You appear to have a different, non-stock, bracket on these.  It makes the exhaust  go up a little steep. Did this come with the exhaust? Is it possible to fit the stock bracket so the line of the exhaust is parallel with the underside of the sea

Yep, you are right, the brackets are (stainless steel) custom made. Forget the original ones, they are very cheep looking. Basically just chrome rings. However, the pipes would sit lower. Reckon they would come down about an inch at the end. 

the original look great if you paint or PC them black to match the frame better. the only problem with the shorter hangers is the angle is different. if there was a way to move the front of the system up...

found another company for exhausts

Thanks Raux. Those cones look wicked! What pipes do you have on your bike? Do you have the stock ECU?

still have stock pipes. waiting for a little extra income this spring. but i'm gonna get another set from italy. dont need to change ecu.

Didnt see this one on here...

Spark exhaust???? Who are they? and where are they sold from??

Interesting

Russ

Can we please get this thread made into a sticky? (Pinned) It is an invaluable resource for aftermarket pipes for our bikes! It is also getting harder to find everyday.
Thanks

Anyone put the MiVV gp's on their bike yet. Price seems good and the two sound clips I've heard had my ears perked.

I thought i saw someone with them on. have you searched?

Dareduc, any progress on this?

Those spark cans are awesome.
Spark makes my favorite exhaust for the previous S2R monsters.
Sold out of europe. You might be able to get the from Chris at Desmoworld.
http://www.desmorados.com (http://www.desmorados.com)

it's in german, but send chris an email, he speaks good english.

I did a search with no results. I'll hunt for more sound clips. Almost sold from what I've heard so for.

have you checked with motowheels
they were supposed to do a buy.

Thanks, Raux, I'l check it out

Ohhh i see you find the first version of Spark´s 696 ...

we are not 100% happy with it and give our ideas back to italy ... Spark modify it and thats it  ;D

i get back to you shure

Bye

YEAH ready for new exhaust-sorta.  Financially, need to go with slip-ons.  After MUCH searching and YouTubing, now torn between Leo Vince GP or the ovals.  (I think, unless someone suggests something matching my wish list better?)
Would LOVE opinions/input from all on:
1.  Appearance.  Do you prefer the ovals/fatter cans or longer/narrower/skinnier GP?   
                         I prefer a dark color/finish, but not into all the rave of CF. What do YOU prefer, stainless (on white 09 696 btw) or black stainless
                         or  CF?
2.  SOUND!  I prefer a DEEPER sound/growl. Do the fatter or narrower cans makes this happen better? Of course, will remove DB killers on cans I get.
                  Which cans are easiest for removal of DB killers? Which cans sound DEEPER and LOUDER?
3.  EASE and safest?  Also, because new bike and still under warranty, will any of these cans and changes effect warranty? 
                               My SO does all his own bike work, so HE will install, but I still want the cans with easiest work etc lol 

I actually LUV the "finishing added touches" on the LV Ovals...the BLACK bracket and straps....is there any way to add these to the GPs?  Found a "Universal Kit" for LV, but not sure universal for the GP cans, ya know? 

THANKS ALL and brilliant thread btw, as usual!

take a look at the Exans that MadDaddy has (apparently he is the US distributor now as well)

Many thanks for the plug Raux! I am loving these pipes! Ducati USA is doing a trackday close to me later this month and will have a dyno there. I will post results as well as video with the sound these pipes produce. It is truly remarkable! The craftsmanship is top notch!

Sorry, forgive the silly question. 

However...

I'm trying to decide on pipes or not and have a couple of questions please.

- I've listened to video's and whatnot but really how much louder are after-market pipes (say the termis for example with the baffles in) than stock?   If one lives in a neighborhood do they upset the neighbors?
- I keep reading about them not being "Street Legal".  Do people actually get tickets for that?

Thank you.

technically only the Titanium Termis are street legal. ie they have met DOT or EURO compliances. the stainless steel and carbon fiber say 'for race use only'.that being said, most pipes WITH baffles will meet sound regulations if not emissions. now apparently in some places they are trying to pass laws that require the DOT approval on the pipes and you will get tickets no matter the volume of the pipes. not sure if that passed in NY or not. here in Germany they can and will stop you and check for baffles. right now i'm not running baffles and will probably put them back in once i record and measure the pipes with out it. I am running the Roads Italia pipes.

So, with the baffles in how much louder is it than stock, generally?

hopefully weather permitting i will get some numbers.

I don't have a 696, but of the different exhausts I saw in this tread, I like the Laser shorties from the first post the best. i am not a big fan of the routing of the standard bike or the location of the mufflers.

My 0.2 cents.

a teenie weinie bit louder

i've looked at some options.
one is to make the exhaust go horizontal, parallel with the road at the connection point. the concern is the chainguard and brake caliper hitting them. it really opens up the tail and with a short tail... very unique. also i would have to brace them on the rear set.

the other is similar to the Indy modified 696/996. but with more complete packaged look to it.

anything else requires new headers.

Hi "Sleeper".  Sorry, just want to clarify your response and if you were kidding or not.  Thanks much.

I don't know about the 696 but on my S4RS without the baffles the bike was seriously loud, I put the bafflels in so as not to irritate the neighbors now it's too quiet just a little bit louder than stock, nicer tone but barely louder. Then my neighbor bought a speed boat, when he brings it back from a day on the ocean he runs it in his driveway to "clean the salt water" from the cooling system, the thing has an uncorked V8 in it. Shakes my entire house. So the baffles are coming back out
 

;D Yes, it is a wee bit louder with a deeper tone than stock. This is true on most aftermarket pipes with baffle. Well hey, if you won't be happy with both baffles in or both out then just leave one in and you'll be happy.

FWIW- I took ownership of my 696 back in early September 08'.
I just hit 6000 miles on the odometer, so I have a pretty good feel
for the stock pipes. I have been procrastinating on swapping pipes
(Termi's/Arrows)
since day one because I will be putting on a bunch of miles
in a short time period and i will not not get the money back on resale.
Also the rumor of only "minor" performance gains with the swap. As a bonus
I like the look and sound of the stockers. I get many compliments on
them actually. Where am I going with this you ask? I just happened to
stop bye my Duc dealer in Ft Lauderdale and bumped into a fellow 696'er
in the parking lot. We were checking out each others mods and I asked
him about his Termi's. He said "see for yourself" and let me take his for
a short ride down the street [bacon]. I don't think I broke 40mph, but I was sold
in the first 10 feet. Big difference in off the line power, how much... don't
know, but it was VERY noticeable and the sound... dear god it was beautiful.
Thank you again if you happen to be a fellow member. That was very cool
of you to let me do that. While I can not speak for the many iterations of
slip-ons on the market; I can say the extra $200-$300 for the termi's
(which gets you a new ECU and air filter in the process) is now for me a
NO BRAINER when I finally do it.

Hope this helps someone.
 

Were the pipes the only mods that would have affected his bike's performance? Was the gearing the same on both of the bikes? He didn't have a 14t front sprocket while you had the stock 15t or something? Just wondering because if the performance increase is noticeable, then termis may go back on my list of mods-to-do.

Good question, but I did not think to ask, nor did he bring it up.
I will ask the girl in the service department; I know she will remember
the guy. Once I find out I will let you know.

i noticed a big difference below 40 just by switching from the 15t to the 14t with no other mods.

BUT i also noticed a difference between teh stock and the termi on another bike i rode with no other changes.

so they both give a difference.

This exhaust looks amazing. Does anyone have this and can post review/pictures?

ok did the official measuring of the new Roads Italia CF pipes yesterday.

idle w/baffles 81db
idle wo/balles 84 db
4k w/baffles 94 db
4k wo/baffles 97 db

didn't get stock. and not for certain i did the measuring at the appropriate distance/angle but it does give a comparison on the baffles vs no baffles.

BUT now i need to chop them 10cm.
the pipes were made for the stock tail, i have the R&G tail and the pipes cover the turn signals. so i am taking off 10cm to lower them. i may see a db or more with that much loss of material.

and pics. sorry pipes are at the chopshop.

and as far the juice box and BMC filter i was ordering....  [bang] order never got placed by the company, money was spent on Paris trip. long story short, will have to wait a bit for the other end of the system.

this week i am recording the stock vs Carbon termis with an actual sound recording device, not a digital camera. Ill post it on a youtube video, and here, hopefully it will give an indication (better than what has been shown at least)

i did hear the carbons and stainless are not street legal, but ive heard in michigan, if they aren't too loud (i am taking baffles out ;D) your not going to be bothered.
 
hope that helps

awesome

Interesting.  Coz here's my observations FWIW.... 

Got my 696 all shiny new in November 08.  At 1000kms service (600 miles guys, c'mon) I had the standard 15t front sprocket replaced with 14 toother and noticed much improved off-the-line acceleration (as you'd expect from lowered gearing).
At 3000kms had CF Termis fitted and noticed absolutely no performance gain at all.  Nothing.  Disappointed?  Well, a little disappointed if I'm honest.  But there is compensation: The sound alone is worth the cost of entry......  the back-crackle you get on the over-run makes grown men weep.....   Sooooo.... if you just wanna little more zing from a standing start, grab yourself a bargain and fit the smaller front sprocket. But if you wanna sound like Thor-Is-Angry on Judgement Day then you're gonna need to spend lots more.  IMO both mods are worth the cost of admission.

Ah well. Guess that saves me some money. I would like louder exhaust, but I don't want to piss of neighbors since I return home at night when everyone's asleep. We have enough punk kids with their loud music and loud exhaust around here. I do have a loud truck with subs and magnaflows but I only drive it during the day. Replacing the truck with a 68 Camero which will have stock-loudness exhaust.

someone really needs to get on a dyno with the Termis. this debate will always loom without it. my personal (SHORT) experience with the termi is that it does give a different feel to the torque of the bike below 6k. maybe it flattens the torque curve or something. only a dyno can show that.

BUT it does change (or is supposed to) your RPM limit. that should give a bike higher  top end and maybe even change your riding style for hardrides/tracks.

I know that my exhausts with the juice box plus a free flow (when i get them) hopefully will give me 10%. Two brothers is giving 7% for their juice box and exhausts alone.

I think people are expecting too much from these Termi's and others. Manufacturers tend to "brighten up" those figures just for the cause of sales, and I think myself that any exhaust system that would give a greater than 5% effect on power would be almost unreal.

It also depends where they measure the power - it's different on the tyre than on the motor withouth drivetrain taking it's toll on the way to the tyre.

well on the 696, the termi kit is a full intake/exhaust free flow kit with a changed engine map and higher rpm limiter. i would expect performance increases with that, not just a sound improvement.

True, and that's why there seems to be a lot of people who bought the Termi kit (btw here in Finland it's about 1500 - 2200 USD bought from the dealer) and then thought to theirselves "I paid all that money and this is what I get?"

Don't get me wrong, I like the Termis sound and looks but still think that it's a bit high priced product. Still having said that I'm pondering between them and a K&N airfilter, Mivv GP's and a case of installation beer for the weekend. Hmm.... [drink]  [beer] I've seen some dyno charts by Mivv and if I were to believe those the bike would gallop like a 1000cc after slip-ons :D

The real difference is the price and the missing ECU from the DIY -pack.

Oh and for comparison, Monster 696+ (or "Kit" here) is priced moderately here: only 18500 USD from the store :D I heard theyre a lot cheaper there.

well i wonder again about the dyno charts of say stock vs slipons vs termi kit vs PC V.

yeah $8995 sticker price in the states.

Expect away  [thumbsup]  All I can tell you is what I actually feel after making the swap  [moto]  You perhaps ride harder than me, so if you ride it to the rev-limiter then yup, you will be able to wring it's neck a little harder at the top of the range.

I have a question for those of you who have already fitted CF Termis:

Since fitting my Termis I have noticed that on starting from cold and during the its-warming-up-whilst-I-get-my-gear-on period that theres light white smoke - nah to call it smoke is overstating it.... more like hot breath on a cold morning - coming from just the left side Termi.... Goes away as soon as the bike's warm and the bike runs fine. If it was just the usual "hot-breath" as the cold engine warms up ought it not be seen equally from both cans as it did when the standard cans were on?

Thanks Guys...

i notice more exhuast on the left anyways, i think its just the pipe setup leading up to the cans

I've noticed the same for the whole 8 months I've had my bike. Not a problem as far as I know.

Thanks guys.  I wasn't real worried, but its nice to know its nothing out of the ordinary  [beer].

gt78fin: Uh, and I thought mine was expensive for 17100 USD. I am also undecided between the CF Termis and the MIVV GP's. For looks and price I would definitely prefer the MIVV's - if only I could make sure the bike remains rideable 2 up without major burns from the bent steel pipes... anyone with the MIVV's out there? MIVV's customer service was not able to give a convincing answer  ???

More clips I found on Youtube. But I'm sure you guys have seen them already..

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3231/3354525086_9337691df2.jpg)

they look great. I am installing termis this week on my 696, and im definitely sold on them, but the more i look at straight slip on rather than conical i'm liking them more and more.  nice bike Rush

I knew this at one point but I can't seem to retrieve any info; can someone tell me what is the rev limit with the "Racing" ECU that comes with the DP CF slip on kit? Or better yet, where I can go to retrieve said info.

I've been told the DP ECU moves it to 10,500.  It was posted somewhere here on the board but I don't remember who.

ok FINALLY got some pics of the new shortened exhausts.

these are Roads Italia exhausts, round CF with CF special ends. I had them shortene by 80mm to better fit with the R&G Racing Tail Tidy.

had gotten caught in rain storm the day before so ignore the dirt. and not a word about stripes. lots of autobahn to and from work. the curvy roads i've starting using Lee Parks techniques so i'm leaning off more, leaving the bike upright more. there enough excuses  [bang]


i will try to figure out how to do a video clip cause they sound AWESOME. thump thump. had a guy that rides a 1800 Honda say to me those sound AGGRESSIVE. 1/3 the displacement and MY BIKE sounded aggressive  [thumbsup]

Nice Raux!!  [thumbsup]

Well, after much deep thought and consideration and even tho I REALLY wanted to work with the CRM's so damn badly, hubby "surprised" me with these:

(http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg55/heathergln/Bikes/dsbsig.jpg)

(http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg55/heathergln/Bikes/LeoVince019.jpg)

The sound is awesome-the deep growl I was looking for!  Now trying to decide whether to add the LeoVince Stickers or nawt?  Kinda liking em without stickers.

NekkedChic, any chance you can make a quick vid clip of the exhaust?

I think these are GPR's, made in Italy?

Get them here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320333419920&ih=011&category=35619&_trksid=p4506.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26its%3DK%252BD%252BC%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26ps%3D5 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320333419920&ih=011&category=35619&_trksid=p4506.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26its%3DK%252BD%252BC%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26ps%3D5)

bump for the newbies

Dang Nekid we are like cosmic twins. I also live in Florida, have a white 696, and a Red Mini Cooper...Clubman,
close enough I think. You've got excellent taste! Having a Duc and a Cooper, does that make us Euro-trash?

Nekkid,

are those red anodized pegs?

I can't wait until Thursday! My Leo Vince carbon EvoII's are en route from the warehouse in IL. I was switching back and forth for the longest between different systems. I was super close in hitting submit for the carbon Arrows but a SNAFU on my end kept me from doing it.
I think the price and lack of stickers (optional) on the canister of the LVs won me over. I'll post pictures and better sound clips on Thursday. There are only two sound clips on YouTube. One with the GP and one with the EvoII. Both are not that great.

I'm glad I'm off that day from work.  [moto]

Did you order them through monsterparts.com?  I'm thinking of going with the one's pictured above that NekkedChic has.  They look sweet and at $710 you can't beat the price.

Yep. Ordered them at Monsterparts.com  They are dropped shipped.

Then we gotta get together n ride sometime  [thumbsup]  Yup, Eurotrash think-alikes  [laugh]

Yup, red anodized Oberon studded Pegs, LUV EM!!!   Now, rearsets one day  ;D

LV are THE way to go, IMHO.  EVERYONE has Termis, I refuse to pay that much also.  Also, no need for full exhaust for me, personally-I may never ride the Monster to it's stock potential anyways  [roll]  Also, held off on stickers...think prefer without them now also!   

First track day on Beastie Boy May 17th!!!  Wish me luck guys!  Also got an '04 SV650 track-only bike, but may only get few laps on it, considering hubby not moving up yet to Int so we wil need to share, damn it.  Still looking VERY much forward to rocking the Monster on the track  ;D ;D

So, for everyone that has a non-stock exhaust, have you had to do anything to make it run right?  Or has it run right from the get-go?  I ask because when I mentioned a couple non-Termi exhaust possibilities at my semi-local shop, I was told that I would need to open the airbox and an O2 manipulator. 

no. you don't need either of those for just slipons.
the termi comes with the new airfilter, new computer and slipons (which eliminate the cats)
to get the SAME setup you CAN get a freeflow K&N and powercommander V or Two bros Juice box and slipons (which eliminate the cats)

but you can use just the slips ons (eliminating the cats) and still get a nice running and GREAT sounding bike

guess I am repeating same question here maybe but.....
was also told, with Leo Vince's, slip-ons like I have shown in pic above...no need to do anything else either-no tunes etc RIGHT??????   
I am gettin popping occasionally on deceleration, but via another thread, someone suggests likely a leak becuz of install?  Also double checking becuz I am coming up on 7500 service (owie) real fast here and should I ask them about a re-tune with these, or make sure I am not "taken" for one when never needed it. 

tks again for putting up with me here guys!

I love popping on decel :) especially on an aggressive downshift to 1st in the city when I get to scare pedestrians.  [evil]

I honestly LUV it-as long as it IS ok??!    Not something someone would go WTF?  Doesn't she realize that is a BAD tune or??   [laugh]

even the stock pops on decel. something to do with the stock tune of the computer.

i'm not sure if the termi kit with new computer changes it. but no, it's not a bad thing, just the nature of the beast (monster)

+1

Oh yeah, I love the pops and rumble the 696 gives out.  It's awesome.  Yeah, probably annoyed some people, but gosh, I'm in love.

The Termi kit without baffles pops like crazy on decel, and it's loud as hell. I like it.

Try leaving the throttle slightly open while decelerating and it pops really nicely with the fuel probably still being injected   ;D

I`m still on stocks here and buying equipment at the moment so probably won't get any slipons at the prices they are selling right now. I`m thinking about removing the silencers just to see what the sound is like without that big restriction :)

Man, I have the cash but I can't bring myself to drop it on an exhaust.  I'm going back and forth between the Leo Vince GP's and the Two Brothers slip-ons.  Then again, Glock trimmed down the G20.  I need to save money for a house.  Probably gonna need a new car by the end of the year.  Damn, damn, damn.  Maybe I should check ebay for a set of stockers and core them.

see how much Ryanracer would charge for coring. this for sure is your cheapest option to get that 'ducati' sound louder.

Hold on folks,

My company is releasing our 696 exhaust.  It is still top secret, but the prototype will be finished this weekend.  The exhaust will completely replace the midpipe and will be completely under the seat.  We have three different designs so far and will probably do at least two of them for sale.  Can't provide pics yet cause the we do not want the design stolen and of course we will have a sample sound before anything else. Our midpipe will allow for single sided exhaust as well and you will have limitless options on silencers.   Stay tuned for Sunday night we will have a sound clip.

:o
You have my undivided attention. 

Underseat?! ohohohhh, I can't wait to see the design.

Ok folks, before I installed my cf termi I forgot to weight the difference from the stock but I do notice the cf is significantly lighter than the stock. So what I found at radicalducati.com is this:

Stock (with heat shield attached):
(http://www.radicalducati.com/uploads/images/Noticias/noticias/696/peso1.jpg)

vs.

Some aftermarket slip-on (no heat shield and pivot pipe attached. with or with-out db killer?):
(http://www.radicalducati.com/uploads/images/Noticias/noticias/696/peso2.jpg)

The scale is in kg translate roughly to:
7.30lb stock
2.38lb aftermarket

Considering the different set-up I rounded off to:
7.2lb (without the heat shield)
3.0lb (with pivot pipe and db killer?)

That's a saving of about 4.2lb on each side or 8.4lb total.  :o Try saving that much weight else where on the 696!
I wonder if my cf termi is lighter than the above aftermarket slip-on.

Chime in if you think my estimation is off

Can't wait to see this. I was going to pull the trigger on the Tail Tidy. Wonder how that will come to play.

It actually sits about 5 inches in front of the plate mount. The only thing we have to overcome is the temperature under the seat.  I think we have it beat though this stuff works really well. We will have the customers apply this under the seat.

(http://www.heatshieldproducts.com/products/r-a-cloth_pic.jpg)

i think if you make it out of carbon fiber and a double layer with a .5 inch airchannel for cooling between the muffler and the seat you shouldn't have to mod the seating area.

i've been thinking about this, but the CF guy i know hasn't been proactive enough.

make sure you check the full compression of the rear suspension. i think it's like 5.8 inches or so.

Yeah me too, what's life without it?  ;D

Don't tease....

 [popcorn]

Okay,

This is a situation where you will either love it or hate it.  It is a departure from the traditional exhaust.  We are trying out 2 different baffle systems for this exhaust and it is pretty loud. We are definatley making this exhaust. The CAD is done and we are going to be producing this within 2 weeks.

(http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/3288/696x015.jpg)

VERY VERY nice. but are you sure that clears full bump on the rear. it looks awfully close to the rear hugger. ooo are you going to powdercoat them black!!! oh yeah.. and a price.

and ryan... how come you still have the charcoal canister?

It looks close, but with extreme testing "Tyler 250" was jumping on the bike with the spring collar totally loose and the worst we got was the box hit the hugger but never the tire.  Our engineer "Marcus Aurelius"  said unless you jumped the thing and completely bottomed the suspension and destroyed the shock, the exhaust box is going to be the least of your worries. It is also rubber mounted where is braes the frame so there is a bit of give there as well.   No plans to powder coat it, but you would probably have to ceramic coat the piece as it would be too hot for PC.

Looks promising... Cant wait to see more pics with different angle. IMHO, seems like the exhaust is hiding behind the license plate. Wonder what mods can be done for that.

Hey Ryan, can you post some pics from the other side of the bike? And will this be louder than the half core you did for me?

Yes, up high from the back you can't see the exhaust.  I did get some different pics from different angles. It is loud! Not quite boom tube loud, but louder than the half cores.  I forgot to bring my mic for the computer so I will try to get a sample tonight when I go back.  I will also post the other under seat exhaust. Some of you will get a kick out of it.  Its amazing what you can utilize for exhaust in the shop if you look around.  I think I will try the high temp black paint Raux, just to see what it looks like.

Here are the new pics.

Damn, that does look pretty sweet.  Now all we need is a decently priced set of rearsets to really clean up the back end.

Looks frigin awsome, yea I think painted black with high temp paint would be nice. Looking forward to a sound clip and price.

+1  [thumbsup]

Okay, I got some better pics of the bike outside today. I also included new pics of the second exhaust we are doing. Its more or less an underseat boom tube.

Here are the pics of the second exhaust:

I like the first one, looks cleaner.  You're probably still working it but if you round out some of the edges, I think it will flow really well with the bike.  How soon before we get prices and a clip?

Ooops sorry here is the sound clip....

http://members.cox.net/hcompetition/Boxclip.mp3 (http://members.cox.net/hcompetition/Boxclip.mp3)

We are trying to figure all of the production costs right now.  It should be competitive to similar exhaust.  The expensive part is the midpipe that thing will be the expensive part.

In other news.......Special Pricing for returning customers!  [thumbsup]

They both look great. I don't know which one I like better. Do they both sound the same? The clip didn't seem to be much louder than my half core.

Oooh... me like that one!! [clap]

Liking the second version more and more ;D

Maybe to cut costs you could use the existing midpipe and do something along the lines of what was suggested in this thread: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=22919.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=22919.0) ?

1. Isn't it going to be full of water/mud when riding in bad weather conditions?
2. Any plans on making one till the end of the tail? :)

That's actually what I had in mind, which is why the stock wide Y midpipe might be a little better (except for 2-uppers).

P.S. Ain't got no hugger. :P

Interesting and DEF different Ryan  [thumbsup]

of topic, sorry.....what did you do with/to the clear windscreen?  Paint?  need to do something with mine-looks like someone dripped white paint on BOTH sides, so not sure can paint inside only to hide  [bang]  forgive jack here?

I sprayed mine with a flat black spray paint made for plastics, you can get it at Home Depot or Lowes, just unscrew the windscreen take it off and spray a couple coats to the inside of the windscreen. It works great.

BOOO HISSSS on the thread jack...

It was designed to work with the hugger in place.  In bad weather conditions, at best a few drops will get in.  That is why the top of the exhaust extends past the bottom in effect making an umbrella from water dripping down from the bottom of the seat.   If you were to go mud bogging with your monster, all you would have to do is remove the can (3 bolts) and hose it out. We are using a ceramic blanket for the wrap which will not corrode with water.  Without a rear hugger, you may get some water in the exhaust, but the heat will more than likely vaporize the water should it get into the exhaust chamber.  We are looking at a third design that will take it a little further towards the back.  The problem is the further back you go, the more likely you are to run into problems of wheel travel clearance. So therefore you need to exit the exhaust to the side if you go further back. We will also offer a single sided exhaust as well. 

Okay now for the weigh in........


The stock exhaust is 7.3  lbs per side.  The Y pipe we removed from the mid pipe weighs 2.7 lbs  That is a total of 17.3 lbs.  We added .9 lbs back on to the mid pipe and the exhaust box weighs 2.9 lbs. for a grand total of 3.8 lbs total exhaust weight. 

The weight savings are 17.3 lbs - 3.8 lbs = 13.5 lbs!

Lighter than Termis, Arrows, Leo Vince, QD...etc..  And the weight is taken from the higher point of the bike... [thumbsup]


I wonder what the titanium one will weigh...


I did what he did to his windscreen... The stuff works great!

Here is my bad photoshop version of a black exhaust box....

looks good but the height of the tips does cover up the turn signals

I wonder if they will have a cf / full system for the 1100/S in the following year as it seem to be their trend.

Wow, they want $1100 for that slip-on? Here I thought the termi's are priced high. The stainless termi kit (with open air filter and ecu) is cheaper than that. I wonder if Akrapovic pricing will be insane like FMF
 

Looking really good!  [thumbsup]

I liked the sound, it did seem about the same as the half core (which I love).  Is it louder in person or just deeper?

Pricing, availability?  [popcorn]

seems most aftermarket pipes are too long for the 696/1100. mine were 350mm when i got them. had to chop them 80mm to see the turn signals.

How long are the Termis?

I want those carbon shields  :o

I haven't warmed up to the Akrapovic slip-ons yet. It looks like it would only flow from the rear view with the factory fender installed. It seems like it almost fits into the "cutout" of the side of the fender.

Just installed and testrode my 696 after smacking the Leo Vince Carbon EvoIIs on, thought id throw in my impressions.

First of all, damn fine craftsmanship.  Everything is beautifully made and sturdy.  Comes with carbon replacement brackets for the stock hangers, nice aesthetic touch.  The carbon looks great on my pearl colored bike.

As for performance, I most definitely noticed a jump in torque.  No doubt about it.  When you check their site, the dino chart shows a jump in the 4k range over stock and I feel like I can attest to that. It's even a little more jumpy from the go, although seems a bit more abrupt start than stock.  I wasn't honestly expecting much in performance, so this was a nice surprise. 

After the first run, i did the thing i had to do and popped the baffles out and took it for a ride.
Good god, the bike sounds like a beast!  I think my ears are bleeding.  Pedestrians are scared of me.

I can't say how they compare to Termis, but I am very pleased with my investment.

If anyone plans to get these, I highly recommend Monsterparts.  The guy that helped me out, Jeff, was super helpful and personable, and got my parts to me in 3 days flat.  Also by far the cheapest I've seen em go for. 

^^ I agree with your statements. I have to wear earplugs now when I ride. The LV EvoII's are a hidden gem.  [beer]

Hello everyone,
I'm considering to get MIVV GP or SUONO. The GP sounds great without db killer, but I like the look of SUONO but never heard the sound without db killer.

Does anyone have info about this?

Thank you in advanced!
SHAO

go all the way to the first posts on this thread. i think the suono on the dyno is in there.

It is there but I'd think that would be with the db-killers on??

honestly it doesnt look like they are in, but the best way is to email them with the link to the clip. ask em. then let us know.

Hello Raux, I'm also interested in the Roadsitalia exhausts but got a few questions. Did you shorten the exhausts yourself? How did you manage to use the original mounting position. I ask this question because when you look at their website you'll see some ugly metal strip to mount the exhausts.

Hey Raux, I was torn between Mivv GP's and these and finally decided to go with these ones. I like your cans for the looks so I'm getting either round cf with the same head or the oval cf with the same head. I thought to myself when ordering seeing other pics that I would propably have to shorten them, and then I came back to this thread and saw you and your shortened silencers, SWEET!

But - do you have any sound clips or video available? I'm getting these in a few weeks but would love to hear a sound clip...

errr no sound clips. sorry.
will be busy for a while so i doubt i'll be able to help out.
i can say that with the DB killers in they aren't as bassy but with them out... it's a good low bass thump.

Well, as those Italians used to say, "Carpe Diem" and forget about it I'm pretty sure they'll sound better than the stock pipes anyway  [thumbsup] [moto]

It took me a whole 6 months to decide, can't wait to get'em and try them out!

im waiting for ryanracer's under seat exhaust.. [popcorn]

Any word on that lately?

Any comments about the exhaust?

I'll be sure to do a write-up when I get it.  According to UPS, it's scheduled to arrive next tuesday.

Got my Roadsitalia clip-ons last week and installed them the same night. A pregnant dog to get those springs in place by yourself when they're being pulled twice as much as original silencers did, otherwise install was smooth.

I too will shorten them when I get the time, they don't fit to my eye with the CW fender eliminator kit...but not because they're too back but because they point "inwards" at the tip.

Sound, well, it's really nice on idle no aggressiveness there, once you twist the handle it really wakes up and rumbles. Great bike now with a great sound. Since removing db-killers I've had every single car driver, biker, cyclist, kid, women, men, truck driver etc. turn their heads far before I come around to see what the hell is that noise!!!

Really nice and the price for the special carbon fibre pair was amazing - 450 euros incl. shipping (In Europe) !!! And they were fast delivery too.

How are you planing to do that?
Where did you ordered it from? I am too from Europe.

TNX

I shortened my roads italia's 80 mm. i also cut and angled out the connector pipes a few degrees.

We are still working on the dyno to get the numbers we want. We have 2 more designs we are going to try mid next week. We have lots of torque, but we want to move a little bit of it towards the top end (8500 rpm+)  I am shooting for 1/2 more horsepower.  I think we have the design that will get us there.  Once that is done, we then have to finalize the manufacturing process.  I am shooting for early to mid July release date. I am also working on getting the thing E3 compliant which is a real PITA!!!  It will probably cost $10,000+ to make that happen. Every prototype we have made sounds drastically different so we have not pinned down the sound yet.  I will tell you the bike does handle even better with 14 lbs off the high rear side. The thing even becomes more flickable!  It really feels like a dirtbike now, much faster response to inputs. Thank you all for keeping and interest in the product!

we will be talking if you make that E3 compliant.

soon to be on the market.... Roads Italia exhausts shortened 80mm

Hi Baz

I ordered them straight from the website: www.roadsitalia.com (http://)

And I plan to shorten them myself when I get the time.

Hi Raux

Did you feel your silencers pointed inwards after installing them? Because mine do, and it's not really the lenght or how far back they go but the inward pointing tips of the silencers that bugs me. Otherwise good and very aggressive sound - have to wear ear plugs now! You ridin' without db-killers too? :D

Any user pics/videos of the RoadsItalia exhaust? :)

The good looking ones are the special design slip ons?

I have pics further up the thread. the tips did point in on mine as well. i took the connecting pipes to a shop and we angled them out a bit.

just so you guys know these are made by GPR

Just got my QD Exbox today.  Workmanship is great.  Just started putting it together this afternoon.  I'll do a full write-up later, but for now, I'll just say that getting the stock exhaust off is a huge pain.  Seat, all the stuff under the seat, gas tank, and rearsets all had to come off just to get at all of the nuts and bolts that hold everything in place.  Once the stock midpipes come out, everything is relatively easy.  The fitment of the QD is really pretty good, although I had to skip a washer in order to clear the left-side rearset.  The sound is actually much better than I had anticipated.  I'll fill in some blanks tomorrow night once I get the random pieces back on the bike.

with the db killers out.. yeah ear plugs but it sounds SOOOO good doesn't it. i put mine in after a while cause i had to wear earplugs and i couldn't communicate with my passengers. plus it was tooo antisocial. felt like i should be in a punk band or something to be able to ride like that.

Can't wait  for ryanracer's under seat exhaust.. Pls keep us updated. tks in advance.  [bow_down] [popcorn]

I have a youtube video but the sound came out as good as in the 70's B-movies...I did shoot this with my small pocket camera, not a video camera at all.

But the picture's there :)

Ducati Monster 696 with Roadsitalia special full carbon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPIWZqMnZ2g#lq-lq2-hq-vhq)

Got the exbox on Tuesday, installed over the last few days... took her for a ride today:

(http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs083.snc1/4571_90617083919_506593919_1932341_486539_n.jpg)

Sounds better than I had thought.  Lots of tight focused bass, meaner and nastier than stock, loud, and not as poppy as the stock.  Before the exbox, I was running a pair of cored stock cans, and I feel like there's more torque with the QD.  Of course, I don't have any empirical evidence, but that's what my ass tells me.  The biggest difference I can tell is the loss of weight from the top-side of the bike.  It turns in much more easily, and just whips around from lean to lean.

Aesthetically, I love how it really opens the rear wheel up.  I also love how the pipe from the horizontal cylinder doesn't weave through the engine and frame.  It looks a lot more naked... like it's just an engine with wheels  ;D  For some reason, I think the stock rearset doesn't look as ugly with the QD compared to the original exhaust.

As I mentioned before, installation was a PITA considering that everybody else is only making slipons.  Tank, tank skins, seat, the little container under the seat, rearsets had to come off.  The O2 sensors have to come out of the original pipes before they'll come off.  Once everything is apart, it's not that difficult to install the QD pipes.

The QD exbox pipes come in more pieces than I had thought.  Both the Horizontal head and vertical head pipes are in two pieces held together by friction and springs.  I followed the forum's advice (I don't remember who specifically, but thanks!!!) and didn't tighten everything down until everything was exactly where I wanted it.  The whole installation procedure from start to finish took me about 3 hours not including having to run to the parts store to pick up a 24 mm socket for the enormous rearset bolt.

There are a couple of minor detractors of this setup.  First is the location of the 02 bung on the horizontal cylinder.  It's right under the middle of the engine facing to the right side.  It requires that the wires to the 02 sensors be extended (the extender is included in the kit) and requires some creative routing.  I sent it around the right side of the engine, next to the clutch cover, but I may end up rewiring it on the other side.  Either way, it looks a little bit out of place.   The second detractor is the length of the pipes seem to differ by a considerable amount (I'm guessing 4-6 inches.)  I can't tell you if this affects power output or anything as I'm VERY far from being an expert on the subject, but it seems to go against the grain of convention.

All in all, I'm really happy with the purchase so far.  I'm happy to field any questions you guys may have.

BTW, don't make fun of my front fender and fairing.  Yeah, I know they're white and look out of place.  Yeah, I'm getting CF ones really soon.

Very nice Takster! I love how the exhaust opens up there rear of the bike. Looks very tough.  [moto]

I love that exhaust setup. Really makes it look like a whole new bike.... Hopefully will be selling my QuatD CF exhaust to get this one..... Would love a sound clip.

Also, did you have your tank repainted? or new one?

Do the rearsets come off with no other problems?  Just unbolt and remove?  I'm thinking either the Exbox or maybe ryanracer's underseat exhaust and a set of rearsets and the 696 would look really badass.

The tank skin is CF.


The rearset unbolts with no problems at all.  The right side hides a bracket which the Y to Y pipe (i just coined that) is attached to.  I had to remove the bracket to get the exbox to work.  The left one keeps the kickstand bracket in place.  Other than having to pay $9 for the 24mm socket, no problems taking it off or putting it back on.

That's cool.  Can you do it on a side-stand?  I thought I read that you had to have the bottom end supported.

You'll definitely need a rear stand to do the install.  When you take the left side rearset off, the kickstand no longer supports the bike.

It looks really clean.. [thumbsup]

Can't say that I would like the looks of the exbox itself (looks like a lego-block under the bike) but I love the way it leaves that back of the bike! And anything is better when compared to the stock cans - I just carried 2 stock cans from garage to cellar and boy, are they heavy. It's like cast iron compared to carbonfibre roadsitalia, so I have also noticed the quicker rear response after install.

Would love a sound clip too  ;D

 [popcorn] [popcorn]

Just fitted the 696 dark with Leo Vince GP style...what a change from stock ;D
(http://i902.photobucket.com/albums/ac223/joose2/DSC_0162.jpg)

Hey I like the look!! How is the sound? Can you do a sound clip??  How much? Did you have to change anything else with the slip on??
tks in advance.

...the might be nominated for the suckiest sound clip ever but here it goes - might sound better with ear phones...and if you watch it in a mirror :-\
 The slip ons were $690.00 and install was about an hour in the dark with mosquitos bitting. Had I waited till sun up it wouldve went much faster but who could wait? The clip is with baffles in. Deeper sounding and slightly louder at idle - on gas they roar. Could'nt imagine with the baffles out.

Here are some quick and dirty shots of my gp leo vince. I just recently had them powder coated. I love the look.

looks great with the red bike Mugen939. Have you removed your baffles?

They sound nice, would love to hear them with the baffles out and maybe a video of the way they sound when you actually ride the bike :)

We are in final process of figuring out the manufacturing of the under seat exhaust. Another project we will attempt is to do the 848 exhaust on the 696 as well. We are slated to hae the exhaust released by mid to late July. We are having a production test done this next week.

 [popcorn] [popcorn]

Looking forward to seeing the 848 exhaust on a 696.... Would purchase that in a heartbeat

+1

Tease...  [bang]

that would be sick.......... [bow_down]

Any updates?

would that be a true 848 exhaust, or just an 848 style?

I was thinking, would it be possible to make an exhaust, like a booktube, or like some of the new under seat exhausts we are seeing, BUT, with a connection so i could choose either my termis for a month or so, then swap back?? i love the termis dont get em wrong, but there is something about not having anything under the seat that just looks sick

maybe share a connection point, no messing with the ECU and stuff, just unbolt and swap??

Does anyone have pics of the 3 different Termi exhausts on a Dark 696? I've been looking around and haven't seen too many in general. I'm in the air about it. Ordered the Carbon Fiber but i have until Monday to make up my mind. Thanks.

Thanks for the pics. I really can't decide. lol.

i had stainless on my white 696 with no heat shields.  loved the look, but i think the carbon would look better with the dark.

what eer happened with the 848 exhaust for the 696 / 1100 rumors?

I just got CF Termi's on my 696.  What a beautiful sound.  Termi's should be stock on all Ducatis.  Notice that they helped with engine braking coming off the throttle.  Not as harsh as with the stock pipes.  Did I mention the beautiful sound?

The underseat exhaust is done and will be in production finally on Nov 10th!

I have been absent because of this addition to the family....

Congrats, been waiting to check it out...  Hope you are getting sleep.
 [coffee]

oh and here i was thinking you were going to post a pic of the exhaust

very cute, but not sure how she'll fit on the bike.

Congrats!!

Thanks all,  

Sleep is a fleeting thought now, but the exhaust isn't.  We now have a ride by clip with the exhaust and a static idle clip

and a nice new baby, but I bet she is louder!!

I think i might be getting this one... thanks for posting[thumbsup]

Need some opinions here...... We are going to do three different exhaust outlets that will be compatible with our midpipe..

The first one is the dual pipe setup:
(http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/295/696protob008.jpg)

The second is the Rhodan Box
(http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/9784/img00008l.jpg)

The third is the Stealth Box (this is a prototype the final is less triangular)
(http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/2711/img0298d.jpg)
(http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/1962/img0310k.jpg)

They are astonishingly not super loud as we suspected

So feel free to criticize, give feedback, cuss at us or say which one you would prefer.  We may also do the boxes in carbon as well if there is a demand for it.

Thank you for your opinions!

stealth box: doesn't match the lines of the bike. you really have to check full bump on that one.

duals: nice, clean, simple, a good concept

Rhodan: by far my favorite, almost mimics the lines of the bike, more 'stealthy' than the stealth, a complex shape that's still simple, i would add a center support between the two points though, to split the visual of the opening and support the tips. (or add more to give a more stealth exhaust look)

I agree with RauX.

The one in the middle look great, and I think the best,
The pipes, the first one,  cool, but so bright and silvery, you know that shinny chrome stuff. maybe redone with Ceramic black? they would be cooler,
( I have a think for the blacked out bikes like Mr Please has done)

I do like what you are doing and Thanks.

Russ

 I like the last two, i think they are pretty funky and cool. I have no other comments except thanks for trying something totaly different than the typical oval/round slip on.

Yes, I agree with RauX also. The middle one looks the best..

I would go with the Rhodan Box.

I would rock the dual tips if they were blacked out. Something about look of it draws me in. It's raw.  [beer]

Would I ditch my current Leo Vince setup? Yep.

If you end up taking off the sticker, can I have it. I like the design  [moto]

Thanks all for the wonderful feedback good and bad.  We are finally in production and there is one last design that we are going to put into production. We have had a few requests to do a GP style under seat exhaust.  So we came up with 2 different looks. One is straight out the back and one is kicked 20 degrees. It sounds almost identical to the ride by.

wonder what their solution for the flapper valve is. Mark, maybe you need to call them and ask to supply your part to them for all the units they sell

found another new style out there for the 1100. not sure about the 696

that's the one from IndyDucati for one of the members here. you would only need their system from the mid pipe back since it looks like they kept the header pipes.

they don't have a solution for the lights and tag.

the system i'm going to do for my bike will have twin tail pipes with a solution for the lights and tag. i know i know.. ya gotta have some patience though.

Minor details  [laugh] 8)

Get weldin'  [thumbsup][popcorn]

twin like an 848?

yes

(http://i893.photobucket.com/albums/ac138/highsails/a8e4l.gif)

indeed, that would be sick. soooo, are they going to be termis or your own style? can you make a kit that i can use my termi slip ons? new mid pipe?

yes working on a new midpipe for the stock location for the 1100 that can be used on the 696 as well.

the stock termis won't work under the tail.. too fat

Let us know how it works.

CW exhaust= UGLY

what is with exhaust manufacturers thinking that its OK to make an exhause that doesnt even come close to following body lines? the angle is alllll wrong.

i think its sick

So do I  [puke] [puke] [puke] [laugh] :-X [puke]

I LOVE those!  Too bad I got my termi's last week.  :-\

What are they selling for?

I think they'll steal HP because they are way to small!

is that possible?

i found them for $800 online yesterday, $845 retail

I kinda sorta like these.

does anyone have the SC project slip on's? if so do you need any ecm mods w/them? or should i lean towards the leo vince gp?

Does anyone have the Akrapovic exhaust on their 696?? or thoughts on them?

I recently upgraded exhaust on my Monster 696 to Mivv Suono. They look better than in promotional pictures and are loud as hell. The good thing is you can have 3 different set ups with 2 removable DB killers. With both of them in place it's maybe slightly louder than stock. When you remove the first DB killer, which is easy to do the sound becomes louder, but OK without earplugs. The last DB killer is difficult to get out, at least mine was, but when you get it out there's a straight pipe and it's ridiculously LOUD. Bought some earplugs and that's the only way to ride when they are out. Will try to make some videos later  [moto]

I love the look of the Suonos

Those look sick! Any pics with them on the bike??

There aren't many videos of Mivv Suonos in action so I made a video:

nice sound.

spain Latvia huh?

i never realized there are so many europeans on here.

Nope, not Spain  8)

sorry didnt look close enough.

My head is spinning....too many choices. i just saw the Vance & Hines CS one for the 696.....looks killer in black. I can't make up my mind.....

wow those are nice. a lot different shape and doesn't look too big

I was close to getting these, but I think they are too long.  Especially if you do a tail chop, they will be sticking out far beyond the taillight.

cut them.

that's what i did with the pipes i bought... from 300mm to 220mm

the fmf are way too long and besides that they hang at all the wrong angle.  the only exhaust ive seen that follows the tail section's angle best are the termis mounted on the upper mounting point that is on the bracket.  all the others seem to hang at a diff angle than the tail section and it looks weird to me.

I haven't been able to find a sound clip for the Vance and Hines on a Monster, but i've heard them on other bikes and they sound great.

buy em, record it, post it :D

My dealer has a pair installed on their 696 and it sounds pretty awesome.  I had seen them online and I wasn't impressed with the look, but when I saw them in person I changed my tune.  They're pretty sweet.

  :D  [laugh]  [thumbsup] cool video!

 I love it, if you can't have a hot chick,  you can at least scare them.

I hope I'm not re-posting but here's a vid with my new exhaust compared to the oem. It gives a good idea of the sound quality difference. I went with db killers out.

I also run them without the DB Killer.  I love them.  I would buy them again if I had to do it.

Also from SC Project I really like this full system for M1100...

Unlike the Termi full system it looks like you could get the oil drain plug out too (although not the screen filter).  And at not much more that US$1000 too... makes it twice as nice.

Its not a monster but it looks like they would work on a 796 or 1100.  the company that makes them said something about making them for the 796 on another forum but when i e-mailed them they said they had no plans to and also stopped making them for the SC1000.  It's by far my favorite exhaust that i have seen so far and wish i could get my hands on a set.

thats a tidy looking bike.

finally got some actual pics of the arrow racing collectors for the m1100.

kit comes with some kinda metal plate that goes in place of the flapper to keep the ecu happy and error free.

Too many options!!

A 696 version from the same company.... hmmm

(http://www.galassetti.it/foto/ducati/monster_969_2in1_omologato_1_big.jpg)

That looks okay, but a little cheap in my opinion.  I'm not quite understanding the shape, the way it gets fatter at the end.  Maybe if it was in carbon fiber, it would look better.

true hate the can, but the headers are worth a look

No way! The curve goes with the wheel.  It has to be curved so it doesn't go up your passenger's leg.  That sweet sound comes from the shape

Just needs to be powdercoated black.

did i miss boom tube 696 pictures? where are those guys?

??

If you find any let us know. I have seen one pic, on a stock 696. with no cowl.

Pics in Here.

I like the shape of the Galassetti.  Aesthetically, why put a plain cylinder at a wierd angle on something that has few straight lines.  I think it would look better if it were shorter, but it looks good as is.  I just still can't wrap my head around exhausts (oem or aftermarket) in the stock position. 

The only problem with the Galasetti is it requires the stock rearsets. thos who have dropped them... out of luck.

I took this last summer sometime and I've been meaning to post it.  It's not great and I'll probably do a better one in the near future.  Anyway, I've got stainless Zard slip-ons on my 696.  I think they sound pretty good.  I had to put the dB killers in because it runs really lean and we have a baby in the house.  It wouldn't do to wake the baby when I leave for work at 530am.

Dammit!  How do you embed video from somewhere other than Youtube?

I like the Galasetti can. I'd like it more if it were an under the tail mount like the oem exhaust.

Rodan Box #3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv-Bwtq-h0E&feature=feedwll#normal)

Sounds great!

Been trying to get in touch with Ryan, I want to buy the Rodan box. I like the twin tubes fine but after installing a custom made baffle I'd like to get the rodan as a loud option.

Dude is impossible to get in touch with.

Thanks!

What did you do to make your baffle? I was just talking about making one today in the hopes that some back pressure smooths out power.

I spoke to ryan via email yesterday. He said that they are making a baffle for the setup which hopefully will be avail soon... They also have the rodan box in titanium which might be nice!

I emailed him at ryanwhampton@yahoo.com. If you havnt tried that, give it a try.

He responded today!

I made the baffle out of these mini muscle baffles.

I was surprised with the high quality of the baffle. Bought 2 of them in the 1 3/8" size and they fit perfectly snug in the existing tip. Drilled a hole through the baffle and into the existing baffle that is welded in and screwed in a self tapping screw.

Worked perfectly. Greatly reduced the volume, it's basically perfect. The only down side is a lot of the bass was suppressed by the new baffle. Good news is, the baffle is removable and re-installable.

I plan on buying a second tip from Ryan and hopefully getting my hands on the new gen baffle he mentioned in the email I got from him today.

What? There are no pipes in this pic. Hell, I don't even see a motorcycle! ;D

I installed a 4 1/2" X 2" baffle today in the Rodan box. Pretty easy to remove it if I decide to go louder... But, give bike the same sound, just not as loud..

001 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFZZcbT37M0#normal)

It sounds identical in the clips with it installed, but in person, not as loud and a little more "refined" I guess you could say.

  I have the carbon LV, I found it too loud maybe because I was inside the garage when I measured the readings, I had the db killer out. One thing i did was cut off about half the db killer and re installed them.

i like the narrow look from behind

I guess I should put mine in here to be official.........

ive been intending to change my 696 stock exhausts but have been hearing quite a few varied comments and would really like to have them clarified before I make any changes....

- Having slip-ons without installing the DP Race ECU will screw up your bike in the long run. Someone also told me he had LV's installed and his idling went to 2000 RPM??

So I guess my question is: Is there anyone who has slip-ons without changing their ECUs and airfilters? Any problems so far and will it have any problems in the long run? Sorry if this sounds noobish but ive been trawling the forum and havent found a direct answer for this or i might have missed it ... thanks and appreciate any help on this!  [beer]

I made no modification to my ECU or air filter; sklip-on's only. No ill side effects.


Mark

Thanks Mark, what slipons do you have on your 696 may i ask?

I have LV Carbons slipons with stock filter and ECU. The box actually says they are designed for stock mapping. Bike runs fine, I ride at 2200-2400ft ASL.

Look up ^^^^^^^^

They are SC Project GP slip ons. My bike is an 1100 though I don't think it matters.


Mark

I put the zards on my 1100 and it runs fine, not much different then with stock exhaust besides for the sound of course, but stock monsters run lean to begin with so I know it could run better with an ecu flash which is why I will be sending mine in soon.  If you like how it runs stock adding the slip ons without an ecu flash will not cause any issues.

anyone... I need a stock front exhaust sheild and mounting hardware (clips, screws, etc)... asap

anyone have a full termi on their bike and have it around?

if you don't have the mounting hardware, ie if you put a CF one on, I'll take what you got.

Thanks guys, that really helped put into perspective over what ive heard (the IMPOSSIBILITIES of just adding slipons without changing or reflashing the ECU and filters).

From the Danmoto thread (http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=44109.msg928478#msg928478) - some pics of my wife's M696 with the Danmoto carbon fibre slipons:

Does anyone know where I can find a set of the Leo Vince EVOII SBK slip-ons fom my M796? I have looked everywhere and I can't seem to locate a set. Monsterparts told me that they are discontinued and were replaced with the LV One series. The LV One is almost the same but it has a black end cap (which i could replace with the steel one) and lacks the heat shields. If the new ones came with the heat shields I would just get those, but all the pics I have seen do not show heat shields and I have not seen them sold seperately. I would really like the shields because I carry a passenger often. After weeks of trying to decide what pipes to get i find out that the ones I decided on are no longer avail.  [bang] Back to the drawing board...I gotta try to be less picky!

I'm in the same boat, though I was planning to wait until next season. I did some digging and found the following sites that claim to have stock:

http://www.186mph.com/SPORTBIKE/EXHAUST/LEO-VINCE/DUCATI/LeoVince-SBK-Oval-SBK-OVAL-EVOII-CARBON-w/-CONICAL-END-CAP-2008-2009-DUCATI-MONSTER-696/prod_115032.html (http://www.186mph.com/SPORTBIKE/EXHAUST/LEO-VINCE/DUCATI/LeoVince-SBK-Oval-SBK-OVAL-EVOII-CARBON-w/-CONICAL-END-CAP-2008-2009-DUCATI-MONSTER-696/prod_115032.html)
http://www.motostrano.com/levidumo696s.html (http://www.motostrano.com/levidumo696s.html)

Nice, But they are shown for the 696. Will they fit my 796? If so I'm all over it.

any slipons past the midpipe will work for 696/796/1100 (minus the evo)
for ones that come with a new midpipe 796/1100 will need something to remove the servo motor (Motocreations Duc.EE)
for complete systems... gotta match your bike.

Ive been bouncing around between the Termi slipon system with ecu system and Motocreations Boomtubes.  I did some looking on the engine management side of it and it looks like Power Commander V isnt ready for the 796 yet...  Am I going to run into any issues running the Boomtubes with a stock ecu/air filter?  any other options out there?

I've started to consider the Termis' but I'm having a hard time finding a good sound clip on youtube. I want bassy and loud. I like the look of the termi's minus the stickers. I also like that the ECU and filters come in the package. It's a bit more $$ but I think that it could be a good value. I really wish I could afford the full system. Is one particular set of Termis' louder or bassier than the others?

I had the termi carbon slipon kit on my 696 with no db killers and it was quite bassy and fairly loud, but still tuned sounding.  Not like cherry bombs on a pickup.  I have heard that the titanium kit has catalytic converters in them though I don't know first hand.  If so I would images them to be a little quieter. 

hehe

Oh my gawd!!! Who would put a Hardley engine in a Ducati? (J/K) Thats just way too loud. My neighbors would plot to destroy my bike.

yeah neighbor did make it a point to shut his window while I was recording...

but that bastard has been putting in a pool and having fork lifts etc everymorning including saturdays at like 7am...
and the others... and their barking dogs at all hours...

I'll worry about db killers soon enough, but I'm going to enjoy a few rides through the neighborhood to remind them who's king.

At my old appartment I had 3 tennents and their land lord come over one night in a gang to ask me not to start my bike at 6:00am (when i had the 696 with the termis...no db killers)  I responded that I went to work for 7 and the bike was how I got there.  so unless they were willing to pay me my same wage to stay home...there was nothing I could do.  we settled on me not using the high idle for 3 mins in the parkinglot.

EDIT:
I did find it strange that no one in my own building had any problem with it...

well i do, even when i had the stock on, try to not warm up for long periods. I gets dressed first etc, and at least get away from the first couple of houses and idle down the hill.

but once i hit out of town...  [evil] we have a nice curvy road to the next village and then again after that to the next... then the autobahn... IF I trusted anyone to ride the bike, I would love to find out how far you can hear the bike in this valley.

You can trust me man. I'll shoot on over to Germany real quick and we'll find out.

I figure I love beer, and that's a good enough excuse to go to Germany.

(did you get the heat shield yet?)

My 696 had a nasty habbit of stalling if it wasnt up to temperature in the mornings (granted it WAS november in new england...) but either way, the 796 high idles for about 10 seconds then kicks right down.  Ive asked the neighbors at my new house and none of them even noticed me starting it in the morning.  Just a few cranky people I guess.

I try to be a good neighbor. My bike has gotten a bit louder and I try to idle down the drive when I'm getting home from work at 1 am. I just can't wait to get some pipes on her.
Raux, your bike looks killer without the shrouds on the front. I'm really digging the color matched subframe too! It's funny because I was wondering why they painted them black to begin with. Do you know what the actual db level is coming from those pipes? Just curious as to how loud they really are.

no shield yet. maybe next week.

Octoberfest coming up

yeah i hate the bi-color frames of the red, even the black doesn't match with the rough cast flat subframe compared to the smooth gloss main frame.

i have a friend with a db meter, i'll check them once i get db killers made so i can compare.

mine too, but i can coast in neutral down our hill.

At the old appartment I didnt have that option, the parking lot sloped down toward my building.  The house is a little better, and ive asked the neighbors and they havent even noticed which is nice.  Of course by the time I get back east for next spring, ill have SOME sort of loud pipes on...just havent decided which ones yet.

Not sure if I ever posted over here..

Does anyone happen to know what the heatshield set up is for the 796 termi slip on kit is?  I only ask because the stock shields are the long black ones, but from the pics I've seen of the kit, they look like the short silver style..

Just got the S-C Project full 2-1 on my M796. I love it, sounds great. I run it without the silencer and I still dont think its "too loud"

Did someone here get them????



Mark

I was disappointed with my Arrow Darks but they are getting louder.

BTW..that bike would look so much better without the frame stickers.  ;)

I dont know, those pipes are 100% without a doubt louder than the Termis I had on my 696...though they do have a slightly less refined sound to them...and it doesnt have the same snap crackle pop on deceleration... :(  

I have thought about removing the stickers but was thinking of waiting for my warentee to expire first...(dont ask me why)

The Darks are nothing compared to the Sil megaphones on my 620.  At speed, the sound really comes out though.  On deceleration, the popping is there on mine.  I have an 1100.  That didn't come overnight.  I probably bought these about 5000 miles ago and that poping is becoming more pronounced..especially on really hot days!  Like I said, they ARE getting louder.  The other Arrow owners said that would happen so I'm becoming more satisfied with the pipes now.  Kind of wish I had gone with the MIVVs (which sound incredible) but the black SS looked better than the full CF and the wear is better with the kind of mileage I put on my bikes.

I was actually thinking it might be due to the metal gel goop that I smeared around the pipe connections.  I think my old bike didnt have that so it was sucking air in (and I thought I heard someone say that that popping is from air getting into the exhaust and allowing the unburned fuel to detonate in the system)

I was planning to get arrow darks due to nice look and price. However I do not want very loud exhaust. I have heard termis in 1100 (I have 796) and those sounded quite nice but definitely I would not want any louder exhaust. Currently I am thinking to buy either SC proj or arrow darks. If you have any recommendations let me know.

Are you getting the full system (2 into 1) SC pipe?  It will be louder (I would assume) than the Arrows since it is a full system.  My Arrow Darks are just slip ons so the sound is restricted until you get on the highway and open it up.    

Check out all 3 on youtube.  I think we may have all 3 clips in this thread?  Some of them have pipes with and without the baffles.  I took the dB killers out of my Arrows.  With them..they were much too quiet and without them..they are still the same since I want them to roar!   ;)

I think you'll be satisfied with the Arrows + dB killers.    [thumbsup]

ducati monster 696 arrow dark line (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz3QZQqQmcg #)

Thanks. If I would buy sc proj I do not know whether it is full system or slip ons.  Good to know that full system could be louder.  I have seen youtube videos but the sound quality for example in termi videos is quite far way from the real sound. I previously owned ktm superduke with akras and that was quite loud without baffles. I ended up drilling holes to baffles and got nice sound which did not disturb neighbours too much. Superduke with akras (no db killers) was a lot louder than monster with termis

Like I said, you'll be fine with the Arrow Darks keeping the dB killers in.  The neighbors shouldn't really hear them. 

any clips of the fmf apex slipons?

Thanks to the Monster Owners of Belgium for this one.

I just finished installing a Arrow header and collector pipe, with Termi Slip ons. Had the pipes ceramic coated black. Note that installation on ABS Monsters is going to require some changes to the routing of the rear brake lines. Aside from that, it fit quite well and sounds amazing.

 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/57319447@N05/6195871847/)

Looks good from that angle with all the black in back.   

If it were mine, I think a red ARROW or DUCATI logo would look good on the pipe along with red pin stripe on the rims.

Decided to ditch the h-competition rodan box for something a little more "refined".... Mainly because I got bored with the look, and it flowed so freely that it was affecting performance and was just damn loud.. Secondly the exhaust packing was starting to come out..... I have been looking for a good slipon to work under the seat... I found the Yoshimura Rs-5 exhaust, which is a tri-oval shape. It has a nice flat head that would sit nicely under the seat.

It looks a little "ricey" and I plan on getting it coated black this winter to match rest of bike.. It sounds pretty awesome. not as loud, and a nice low rumble. Bike does sound happier and revs very smoothly without any popping or other issues...

Going on a ride tomorrow and will report in with some better pics and hopefully a video clip

Love how it looks! I think it's awesome!
But about the popping, you mean you're  really happy it's gone? I actually love it! It's one of the things I love more about the bike! I just think it gives it a kind of racing attitude! :)

did you check full bump compression to see if there is clearance. that looks a bit tight.

Over here in Italy we are making up a little group to get Sc to make a new full for us...
Basically we asked them if they would make us a modified version of their 2-1 full making it a 2-1-2 like the SxR monster style.
This is just the photoshopped pic we sent to them to make them understand what we want.
They seem very interested and willing to do the job if we find enough people.  [thumbsup]
Just would be nice to know what you guys think about it.

That's similiar to what I spoke with DanielleMoto about, I think he said SC is the shop he works with.

The only difference was to use the stock headers and bring the two out of the top of the swingarm instead of underneath.

basically it would also reduce the cost of the system as you would only be replacing the midpipe and cans and not the front headers.

Well, the cost is quite low, so it's not a big issue, as for the pipes changing all the system will give a much better power gain since it has a wider section starting stright out of the cilinders and also better and easier flow pattern, it's not strange that also the full Termis have a very similar layout(under the engine rather than inside/around it).

Yeah so far so good... It's no thicker than my previous exhaust, just longer

which puts it closer to the rear wheel's tallest point on full compression. that's the concern i would have.

there is a chart that shows the max amount of travel for the rear wheel. i think that's from ground. measure that at the center point of the top of the wheel.

It looks good. I'm pretty fed up with the H-Comp as well. The home-made baffles helped but there is still not enough backpressure.

Are you using the same mid pipe that was part of the H-comp kit?

I think something from TBR would work well also.

Maybe one of these?

http://www.twobros.com/Exhaust/Black-Series/index.htm (http://www.twobros.com/Exhaust/Black-Series/index.htm)

Doworkson- why don't you extend the midpipe out taking the exhaust all the way under the light and mount the tag and signals under the exhaust?

That is definitely a possibility... Still playing around with it. Went for a short ride and there is a small exhaust leak around where the midpipe and muffler meet.... Have to figure out a way to solve that issue. Clearance seems fine but have yet to do any riding that would max out the rear wheel.

I think that I could extend it, and then re mount the plate somehow, maybe a bracket wrapped around the exhaust pipe, or off to the side... With the plate hanging down, clearance will be an issue, as would keeping it visible..... Another issue it securing the muffler in place... I think I will have to weld some bracket to the pipe and use springs from the muffler to pipe....

This winter when I tear down the bike for my eagerly anticipated head/cam/flywheel project I will also do that. Should be hard extending out the muffler, but more difficult mounting it.

Yeah, the exhaust packing was starting to come out, and Ryan seems to have forgotten about his previous customers after promising a baffle many months back....

However, it is still the same midpipe that came with his exhaust. It perfect because it goes from 2-1 just right at the point where the muffler slip-ons and when the muffler is on, it sits right up under the seat against two rubber bushings

I think that the 2-bros might be too big for under the seat. The reason I went with yoshimura is because they offer this muffler in 12.5"(w/o the end cap) and its pretty flat so it tucks up nicely under the bike. The top of muffler rests just on the underside of the sub frame

It's still a work in progress, hell, the bike is always a work in progress, and winter is already approaching soon

build a bracket using the old exhaust mount locations on the subframe rails and hang the exhaust from that.
or drill through the bottom of the CW tail piece and use that for support.

for the tag. build two vertical supports on the outside of the CW piece and attach here the signals are.  [thumbsup]

either way. I still think you are going to be close on the bumps. a way to test is go ahead and remove the spring (keeping the shock on and go to full compression to the bumpstop. this is one of the reasons I was thinking about making a flatter oval or other shaped exhaust for the setup when i was looking at doing it. and probably why that early 696to998 motor change had that type of flat exhaust. I know that Ryan had said even on his at full compression it touches the fender.

btw nice GS back there.

got my sc projects on, look great, not sure i want to put the stickers on

they sound great too, although you can only get so much variation between the twins... they all sort of sound the same, ill try to get a video up soon

The best part of that video was at 0:20!!! Love the pipes! Great sound, especially when you nail the throttle!

what the '55 that drove by?

Leave the sticker off.  I have the same ones.  They are great, and I'm surprised that I don't see more people with them.

You got it!!

Ok, seems as if I changed my mind... now I want this one!
This is real badass!!! [evil] [thumbsup]

(http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/8520/ducatimonster6967961100.jpg)

a evo type exhaust mixed with SF. I like that

Yeah, was just thinking maybe it's too similar to the evo, and now that I look at the layout I think performance won't be very impressive due to the amount of bends of the front pipe...

What about this one?
Only con is the plate repositioning...

wow thats hot! i want a fender like that!!!!

Wow, those are some unique and nice-looking exhausts! I wonder what the build quality is like? Looking at a few of the pictures I have my concerns.

Plate is fine
turn signals are an issue
i would have used flatter cans and tucked them inside the turn signals

The brand is Fresco, they make custom exhausts, you can actually ask them what you want and they'll make it.
The looks are great, build quality was crappy years ago but has improved dramatically nowdays.
Only con is they don't study the dynamics, so some give outstanding performance, some are crap...
On the italian forum I managed to find the owner of the first exhaust(the low side one), at the moment I'm trying to get in touch to get some feedback regarding performance.
I'm also trying to get in touch with another guy who studied his exhaust for years to get the most performance possible from the m1100, couldn't get any pics of his layout yet.

Not an issue, you can ask them to do what you want...

Dammit

[laugh]

(http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/8520/ducatimonster6967961100.jpg)

Just turn your Termis or Leos sideways.  [thumbsup]

Won't work! Layout is lower, you'd bend the pipes, you maybe could turn full Termi cans sideways but not get them as high,
Leos and Termi slip-ons cannot be turned, due to the bent piece of pipe attached to the can. [roll]

Maybe I should have made it obvious that I was not being serious. More smileys next time?

That exhaust looks sick! These are some of the one of the best looking exhausts for the Monster that I have seen yet.

Sorry, didn't realize wasn't serious![beer]

Yeah, I agree, they look great, and basicly I think I can explain why:
What this guy does is only make exhausts upon request, so all the ones he makes are actually designed following owners directions. And owners always have better ideas because they want their bike to look its best.
After that they just sell designs they have already made.
The con is that if you ask for a layout that will perform crap they will just make it as you want it, so that's why some of their creations just won't perform!

love these!!

No harm, no foul Inglese.  [beer]   Anyone know what they are selling for? Good looks are great but I still need to see some gains in performance if I am going to spend ANY money on an exhaust system. I think Inglese nailed it on why they look so good. But I don't see why they couldnt take some time to make a system that is also a proven performer and mass produce it. Then again, That would take away the joy of owning a one off peice that was designed around your taste.

meh, its italian.. they build motors for the sound... power is a by-product [beer]

Well, the fact is that if they studied an exhaust for performance they would just offer the same service as lots of others, on the other hand, if they studied every custom request well enough to get good performance the exhaust would cost much more and take much more time.
In this way they have lots of clients because they make whatever you want. And they can make it in a week's time.
On the other hand there are some guys searching max gains that have designed their own project and then have them build it for them, I actually am now in touch with one of these guys. He must be quite clever because he told me after he draw 2 different systems now they often ask him for advice on new projects.
Problem is that max performance is hard to achieve, I asked him a few tips and he just told me you have to get the right first, middle and final length proportions, the correct diameter in every section, the conical shape gradient, db, backpressure...and you name it..

Really like these. Reminds me of the superbike exhaust.

that is sweet

Dang!!! Too bad I just dropped the hammer on a set of Arrows.  [bang]

Those are freakin AWESOME!!! [bacon] [drool] Somebody with deeper pockets than I: please buy those pipes and send me a video so I can hear how those beauties sound. Nice find!!! [thumbsup]

I like these, very cool. The cans could be better looking but the pipes look great

i like workmanship as much as the next guy, but all i see is potential failure points at the welds....

The welds are actually going to be strongest points.

Those are some nice cans. Not sure if they deliver to Chile  :-[

I just sent an email to HP Corse asking if they are working on one for the 1100 Evo and they said it wouldn't be ready for another 2 months.  I was looking at their other sidepipe instalations on other bikes and they look really sharp.  I'm hoping it looks as good as I'm imagining  ;D

Does HP Corse distribute to the US?

 I just found out that the system I wanted to buy, the Zard slip-ons that don't look all angular and weird, are no longer available in the US. The Zard system was the only one i've seen that, like the termi kit, doesn't come out at a wierd angle in relation to the bottom line of the rear subframe. The HP Corse system looks like it fits quite nicely.

I emailed Comp Werkes earlier in the week asking if they were going to make a exhaust for the 12' 1100EVO. I just got a reply from them stating that yes they are and it will be on the website in a week or two. [beer]

Thought I'd shoot a quick request for updates from those who have installed the Termi kit on their 1100s.  I will soon be ordering.  I found a great price from a dealer in VA.  I'm being told the dealer needs to install to get the 2 year warranty and that it will require tuning.  From what others have said here, the 3 key on/off process will reset the TPS.  Anyone else done this with success.  I'm totally into doing this myself.  Just hate the way they make you feel your loosing out by not getting the warranty.

Anyone have an ECU fail? 

you should still get a warranty on parts. i think 1 year

You'll also need to set the bike to USA and miles, etc. If the dealer is Duc Pond, they can walk you through it but I'm sure they'd rather do the set up on their Ducati handheld computer. Your choice.

Generally you only get a new bike warranty on accessories when they are installed prior to delivery. Otherwise, you just get the parts warranty.

it's in the owners manual how to set it. super easy.

Not in 2011 NAS (USA) 796 ABS owner's manual. Maybe in your older 696? Didn't you post those instructions somewhere?

1) Hold the mode switch up while you turn the key to on. Hold it up until the display reads  "00000 PRO". Release switch.
2) Press the switch up until the display will read "UNIT     SET"
3) Hold the switch down until display reads "US". Release switch.
4) Press the switch down until you get to the desired setting.
5)Hold the switch down until the display reads "MEM  xx" then Release switch.
6) Turn key to off position.

Great.  A little more on the set up.  Talked with local dealer today that says it has to be tuned for CO2...to run right.. Do the steps posted above apply to all ducs (mine is a 2009 1100)?

If the ECU comes programmed, what would have to be tuned?

You paid 4 figures for those pipes. Let people know. Plus the Termignoni stickers look pretty cool.

Found these on an Italian Ebay store.  Pretty funky.  Ixil X55 $738.21

Are the exhausts for the M795 similar to the M796 or M696? Or all of them are the same? Nobody seems to have the M795 here

well as far as i know, the 795 is a 796 in a 696 chassis so id reckon they would be similar

DucNaked, are you still running the Rexxer unit flash? I'm interested in buying one after I buy some slipons for my 2012 796abs

Yup. Still very happy with it.

Does anyone here have this system? I like the look, but it would be nice to hear it before I spend the money. It looks good, but Im not 100% sold on it. The exhaust hange looks a cheap and doesn't fit the system looks.
I ordered an Arrow full system, but I got jerked around on when it was going to be here.. Three weeks later and no shipping date I canceled my order.  Now its time to find another exhaust system. 

This is the slip-on I made for my bike, still not sure how I want to mount the back so I just have it hose clamped for now..

Thanks Wannabfast, got it now..

that looks sweet! although might want to weld on some clamps to the cans and run a strap to the foot peg

Thanks Wannab..Yeah, I have a couple things in mind, also thinking about removing the passenger pegs, that would really open up the back and make naked bike more naked..

the passenger pegs on the evo arent that intrusive compare to the 696/796 it looks good though

SO i AM THINKING ABOUT UPDATING MY EXHAUST ON MY 09 696.  I WAS THINKING ABOUT SC, OR ARROW, AND A POWER COMMANDER.  I HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE FOUR STROKE SEEN FOR SOME TIME BECAUSE I WAS INTO VINTAGE 2 STROKES FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS.  MY WORRIES IS THAT I SEE WITH SOME EXHAUST THEY COME WITH ECM, AIR FILTER.  IF I WAS TO DO THE EXHAUST FIRST WILL I HAVE A LEAN CONCERN AND POSSIBLY HOLE A PISTON? I WOULD WITH A 2 STROKE. LOL  WILL A POWER COMMANDER WORK PROPER FOR THIS BIKE.  I READ THROUGH ALL 30 SOMETHING PAGES FIRST BEFORE POSTING THIS AND FELT I NEED TO STILL ASK. AS I SAID I AM A NUBE AND COULD USE SOME ASSISTANCE.  THANKS FOR ALL REPLYS

uh. first. you might want to turn off the cap lock.

second, unless you are modifying the intake system or running a non-standard filter you'll be fine if you just run a standard slipon replacement.

if you run something like boomtubes, you should use a powercommander V.

that being said, a Powercommander V will help smooth out the bike even with a stock setup.

thanks for the info Raux.  sorry about the caps.lol   

just added the leo vince gp exhaust to my 09 696.  left the db killers in, they sound great.

Any issues with heat from the exhaust?  It looks like you are gonna melt your tail light or your passenger....

Slim1899, It's like any other Ducati.  It get's pretty hot when your not moving.  The exhaust itself is ceramic coated, I can actually touch it after long ride without burning my fingers.  As for the tailight, no issues there.  I have ridden the bike 1-2 hour trips and my tail lights still looks brand new.  As for burnning passengers, I could not tell you.  After I knocked up my wife she's no longer availble to ride with me plus I recently remove the passenger pegs/stock rear set in favor of a woodcraft rearset.  I'm ridding solo now, so no passenger burn test.  

That's good to hear and congrats on your wife being pregnant!  [beer]

Here's the Leo Vince ll SBK Carbon on my 796:

Rear view:
(http://i1075.photobucket.com/albums/w436/hardtouse/LeoVince/20120629_7FIX.jpg)

Quality was excellent, installing was not quite as good.  The two elbow connectors look the same but they are not.  Had I put the three inch square diagram that poses as instructions under a microscope I would have noticed the different part numbers.  Had to find out the hard way.  One side is still has a little movement in it, nothing I can do seems to make it as solid as the other side.

With the DB killers in the sound is sort of OK at idle, just a bit deeper, but they come to life when the wheels are turning and sound really great (but not that much louder than stock).

DB killers out?  Awesome..... but I'm not sure if it might be a little bit too much for my somewhat aged taste.

(http://i1075.photobucket.com/albums/w436/hardtouse/LeoVince/008.jpg)

So I'm contemplating some minor surgery on the killers (above) to maybe find an in between level.  Anyone have any suggestions as to cuts/holes?

looks like you installed your tail light in upside down dood, those cans look good though!

Upside down?  I thought something looked a bit odd with the Evotech.  Doh!   bahaha I is truly a idiot.
Thanks WannaB, it will get fixed......... sometime  [roll]

No no, thats intentional...its underglow for the pileon!  ;D

Cyberswine, can you let me know where you got your exhaust and if you don't mind, how much did it run you?  It's tough finding parts for a fair price up here.  :o  Thanks. ....Steve

BAHAHAHA!  I saw this and immediately thought....."hmmmm.  That looks eerily familiar to how my back light looks, and I knew something seemed wrong."

It seems I too have another project to do........sometime.  [roll]

Although I have to go back in there anyhow.  I just put the Evotech kit on my bike last week, while also swapping out the signal lights for LED's, but I didn't put resistors on, so now I need to go back into the wiring to do that too.  Sounds like another couple hours in the garage while the other half looks after the kids!!   ;D

They seem to be a little overpriced for what they offer though. Definitely my favorite exhaust for 696/796/1100 that is currently offered.

Then again anything is better than my H-Comp..

Got it from Monsterparts, (where else?)  Geoff's price is competitive but then there was shipping, tax, duty, brokerage blah blah blah.  Probably about 900 Cdn in all.  Same as the Vance and Hines CS Ones.  Had them ordered from Dennis Kirk for a couple of months but seemed like they weren't ever going to arrive in stock so I gave up on them.

$2100!! I would like them better if they were a bit higher, but that is just me.

What do you not like about the H-Comp? I think it is the best looking system out there but the db's scared me away.

Mark

Exactly what you stated, the db's. I love the look of the H-comp system and no other system really comes close in terms of aesthetic appeal for me.

However, it is way too loud. To clarify how loud we are talking.. I enjoy loud exhaust. I have GP exhaust on my gsxr and it's loud but it sounds good.

The H-Comp is on another level of loud entirely. It is ear piercing and ear wax liquifying. I find myself trying to ride without making too much noise rather than just enjoying the ride. I even installed a fabricated db killer into the tip in an attempt to help. It did, but only slightly.

I'm currently toying with the idea of buying custom fabricated mufflers and mounting them under the bike using the H-Comp mid-pipe and a fabricated 1-into-2 adapter that would allow the attachment of 2 real mufflers under the seat.

Very similar to what DoWorkSon has done with the Yoshi RS-5 but with 2 smaller mufflers; probably from 2-Bros.  

I'm looking at several exhausts that I can modify to fit under the bike accounting for heat and proximity to the underside.

I was looking at these:
Comp Werkes
2 Bros
Yoshi RS-5

I just need to find a local shop to fab the 1 into 2 adapter and then fab some mounting brackets.

Thanks. I'm down in Idaho now for vacation and ordered a set from Jeff on Tuesday. Having them shipped to me here and then I'll take them home with me. Should save some cash that way. Excited to get them and try them out!

Trying to install my LeoVince Carbon's on my 2011 796 and I've got two issues:  First, I can't get the two pipes to look the same from the back.  One is either lower or closer to center than the other.  I've tried it a few times and still can't get them even.  Call me picky but they should both come out the back at the same height and angle.

Second, they're not tight.  There's mention of an exhaust gasket in the "instructions"  [roll] but I didn't have one stock and the kit didn't come with them.  Anyone else notice this?  I haven't started it up yet but I'm assuming it'll leak as much around the pipes as what actually comes out the back.

Any help appreciated!  I'd love to get this thing out on the road ASAP. Thanks. ...Steve

I can wiggle my pipes in the socket at the midpipe.  (my 696 with termis did it real bad one one side) the 796 with the arrows a little less, but still there.  My cans came with a tube of goop to smear on the joint...it was like a graphite impregnated grease of some sort...which naturally leaked all over the pipes when it got hot  [roll]  but it wiped up with some WD40. 

Either way, all these aftermarket exhausts are basically a strait shot of pipe...they dont really create enough back pressure to cause that joint to leak much  (then again with the DB killers installed that might be a different story.)

As for the allignment issue your having, pictures would be helpful. One from the tail showing the difference in the two, and one from each side showing how you have the mounting brackets...Im almost suspicious you may have one of the tabs that hang off the frame the wrong-way-round, or the stack different from one side to the other (by stack i mean the order in which the hanger and strap are on the mounting bolt..)

Like i said...pictures pictures pictures.  [thumbsup]

Keep us posted on how this works out.  I've got the CW fender eliminator with the plate mounted in the low position...even with that it has 2 dimples in the plate where its smacked into the hugger...and Im not even a heavy guy!) If you can get clearance for a pipe under there, I'd love to see what you come up with!  (and I know its been done...Indianapolis ducati has a track 696 with an undertail exhaust... http://indyducati.com/articles/view.asp?id=264 (http://indyducati.com/articles/view.asp?id=264) ...but since its a dedicated track bike they were able to ditch the tail light to grab a little more space.)

Mine were a little loose around the joints but there was minimal exhaust blowing out anywhere.  Now they've been on a few weeks they're nicely gunked up and much tighter.  No excessive decel pops - prolly less than before - so it's all good.  But yeah, I can't get mine lined up exactly  [bang]

Looks almost identical to mine, lol. As far as the DB killers, I took mine to muffler shop and had then chop about half the length of the DB killer off! The sound is a bit deeper than before, I might drill some holes next and try that.

Hey ladies and gents, I'm looking into perhaps upgrading to a termi system.  I like the idea that it comes with a more active ECU and air filter as well as the fact that I love the sound. So while looking through, there is titanium and carbon fibre. I know there is a weight loss advantage with both, but I'm not a track rider (yet). Are there performance/sound differences between the two? I'd appreciate your insight...

I believe the Ti cans have a catalyst in them...or they get hot enough to have a catalytic affect...something to that effect.  Other than that there should be no difference between them.

Ti is homologated if you leave the db killers in. Ragged edge of "civilized".  8)

They do sound different as the materials resonate differently

Hmm, good call.  I recal a difference in sound between the 696 with Carbon Termis, and the 796 with Arrows, but I guess I attributed it more to the somewhat conical shape of the termis and the difference in engine displacement more than anything, I hadn't really thought about the difference in material making much difference in sound.

I know the Carbons sound great. I heard those on the monster I test drove. Personally I'd prefer the "look" of Titanium, but that one reason alone doesn't really make the choice valid.
I could use some teachins on the term/idea of homologated pipes. Is that, from what I gathered contextually, only pertaining to decibels? Does it involve other aspects such as Freeclimb mentioned (a cat con)? In turn making them more/less restrictive?
I went to the termi site, and perhaps they have a sister site, but I found nothing for pipes the make for ducati.

Also, a big question, is it worth it? Is the ECU, filter and pipes from termi a better set-up/deal then a filter, aftermarket pipes and a mapped ECU?

That last question will get very opinion based I'm sure, but we all made the smart decision to own a monster, so I thought the opinions would be worth consideration.

reread the entire thread and the closed loop ecu thread, you'll get your answer  [thumbsup]

Go to the Ducati site for info on Termi for Ducati.

I just purchased my new monster yesterday and wow. My only concern is cw slip on. Personally I think it makes the bike look and sound so much better. But I'd really like to know if anyone here can assist me in telling me whether I need the bike tuned or will it damage the engine. Ducati claim it will and will void my warranty. Thanks

Lol. now buy our $1600 termi system

tell them prove it

Is 1450 a good price for a new carbon termi set?
Anyone seen a better price?
Also, is it the same system regardless of ABS?

that seems about the range for the CF.
and no
the ABS vs non-ABS would be different ECUs

Damn... My deal for 1400 fell through....
Anyone have any good leads?

 I would recommend doing an on line search using the part number, and asking the seller for a discount, you'd be surprised by what you can get, also keep an eye on eBay.
 I just purchased a full termignoni exhaust system for my 1100 and got a big discount just by asking.

 My new to me M1100S came with Leo Vince mufflers with no Db killers, is there an economical alternative to the Leo Vince ones that cost $110 a pair?

i see.. well good luck with that.. comes with the territory though, wont find anything cheap that will hold up for less than $270, might be able to pick up some stockers from some people, but i dont know

 It is just the Db killers that I am after! Sorry for the ambiguity!

Does anybody know where I can purchase the Miiv GP exhaust?  Love the sound of it

Thanks

You know.... i find this funny how we were on the phone about this earlier today and it was posted by you 361 days ago he he.   [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

I'm nearly 43 and you're asking me to recall this exact procedure
plus i had pizza in my hand
i helped didn't I

and i did remember the hold while turning on

Look what Silmoto just posted on their FB

(http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/285245_526943167328657_92700338_n.jpg)

wow thats a weak photoshop...

 After reading about cutting down Db killers to achieve a desired sound level I decided to forgo the full Db killer and go straight to the short version. I ordered 2 bronze bushings that have flanges that are 2 inches in diameter and inner diameters of 1 1/2 inches. I drilled and tapped holes next to the flange and bolted them into the Leo Vince pipes with a lock nut on the inside.
 The sound level is still fairly robust butt no longer has the sharp edge that it had, the sound is round and mellow butt not very conservative!
 If I decide I want more attenuation I can braze some washers or tubes to the bushings. For now the sound quality is quite nice, and I have 16 bucks into it so far!

I went to the local dealership tow days ago to have my rear tire replaced, and waited and watched them doing it...
Bad mistake ... I got to hear the sound of exhausts on different bikes there,  all of them are termis.. and now I found myself just finished reading this whole thread and thinking about which slip ons to get   ;D

Okaay .. I finally stop resisting the temptation to get a new exhaust. I contacted some of our sponsors, but I found out that there's an Arrow dealer here who also sells other brands. After researching the web for sound example of Arrow, SC, Zard and LeoVince, I visited the shop today. He deosn't have Arrow in stock but have LeoVince, SC Project and some other brands that I don't remember.

Anyway, I ended up bought Leo Vince One EvoII Carbon slip-ons  ;D

When I got home from the store, I installed the LV slip-ons with my daughter. BTW, I weighed the slip-on on a bathroom scale. The stock slip-on weigh 4 kg each, while the LV weigh 2 kg each. Don't know how accurate or inaccurate the scale is, but that's the result I got.

After the installation, which was easy... I started the engine, with the db killers in the slip-ons. It's louder than stock slip-ons and has deeper (bass) sound than stock but I think it's not that much louder.

Then out of curiosity I removed the db killers and started the engine. Now, it's much louder than stock  ;D I really like the deep sound and the growl.  [thumbsup] So I decided to leave the db killers out and see how it's like tomorrow for commuting. If it's too loud and sets off cars alarm in the office parking lot, I'll replace the db killer. But for now, I like this new deep, bass and loud sound. [Dolph]

Installed my MIVV GP Slip On and they sound great!  Can't wait to try them out tomorrow since the weather is suppose to be real nice  [thumbsup]
The install was simple and easy.

A preview of my custom shorty 2-into-1 GP-style exhaust.  More details to come [thumbsup]

Here are some pics of the Zrd install on my 2013.  Went easy sounds great!

That looks awesome man!  I like the black endcaps.   [thumbsup]

Been told by the Ducati mechanic that I need to upgrade my air filter and the ECU maps due to the exhaust upgrade, has anybody else been told this?

not necessary

Supposedly he connected the ECU to his laptop and stated the bike's fuel injectors were jumping up and down, basically they were not repsonding to throttle position properly.  He reset the ECU and ask me to ride it as is then bring it back to see if they have adopted to the new exhaust.

what exhaust did you put on it?

Are the O2 sensors still connected?

Did he reset the Throttle position sensor?

If everything is as stock except for the slipons, then you might have a different issue unrelated to the exhausts.

If you change the air filter, THEN you have to remap the ECU or add a fueling additional computer like a powercommander

more air in needs more fuel in.

more air out, is just a minor adjustment that CAN benefit from a remap and/or PC but isn't needed

Have the MIIV GP slip on and the O2 sensor are still install.  He stated that it wasn't getting enough air due to the stock filter and recommended me to purchase a different filter than he would re-adjust the mapping with the new filter.

well if you want to go down the mod road, sure
Start a new thread in the acc & mod section for the changes.

this thread is for the exhausts only.

it says 696/1100
but no way that will fit the 696 swingarm. (edit: maybe, it does kick out a lot)

Yeah nobody needs to hold their breath. Got some more informations. That prototype is 2 years old and had trouble getting an official permit. Because of that it never could enter production and it is also more than questionable we will ever see something like that. Maybe a slipon for the 1100 Evo but nothing for the 796 or 1100.

 Holy guacamoly! I would love something like that! As I eliminated my chicken wings another muff support would be needed, butt I would buy something like that in a heartbeat.

Nice exhaust. Waiting on mine to come in today. Any fitment issues with the QD exbox???

Ok fit kinda quirky but over all ok for a of the shelf kit. A lot quieter than the termis.

^^sick bike!!!^^

Just put the Danmoto GP Conicals on my 796 today. Here's a comparo between stock recorded on my HTC One.

http://youtu.be/gaiQxRd9lk0 (http://youtu.be/gaiQxRd9lk0)

 [thumbsup] [Dolph].. I'm biased since I have same pipes on my 696.. No baffles [evil]

Those sound great!

Those do sound great. I wish Danmoto would offer a $350 exhaust with better fit and finish. There aren't an options between the $240 Danmoto and the $580 entry level Arrow/LV. There is a market niche for someone to fill.

I completely agree.  The pipes themselves seem to be decent quality, but the mounting hardware really could use some improvement.

I did spend the extra $100 and had the danmoto pipes ceramic coated.. Took me to the $350 price target..

Well I sold the Danmotos.  They were just too loud and I was tired of riding with earplugs.  I decided to go with the Leo Vince LV-Ones as they look good, are relatively inexpensive, and have a removeable baffle.  I thought it was too quiet with the baffles in and sounded pretty close to stock, atleast when it comes to volume.  Conversely, it was too loud with the baffles out, so I decided to cut them.  Was pretty easy to cut them with a Dremel, I think the hardest time I had was getting the damn baffles back in and lined up so I could get the retaining screw back in.

(http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/rr289/dyltayvb/IMAG0060.jpg) (http://s492.photobucket.com/user/dyltayvb/media/IMAG0060.jpg.html)

And here is a video comparing stock, to the Leo Vince with baffles in, out, and cut.

http://youtu.be/p-wH5VIKMB0 (http://youtu.be/p-wH5VIKMB0)

Sounds good man, I think I am going to cut the baffles on my Termis.

Swapped out the 796 exhaust with 1100Evo setup. Pretty simple just direct bolt off/on, hard part is finding the used headers cheap.

(http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5525/9295230889_41f480bc74_b.jpg)

you do realize you get more hearing damage from the wind noise not the exhausts.

Looking good Flaboi...now ditch those chicken wings!

Found a brake pedal for cheap! shipped today, so swapping out those "chicken wings" very soon...  ;D

Finally got to install my SC Project 2-1 exhaust.  Running it without the baffles and it is loud but still has that monster growl.  Really opens up the left side nicely and disappears into the bike.

flaboi. I could use chicken wings in black. Are you selling yours once you swap them out? :)

Don't know if any of y'all have seen this but it looks pretty damn good to me. Its a full system so I can't see why it wouldn't work for an evo. Its supposed to be pretty light too. Available from motowheels.

Looking through some of the exhaust pics I notice someone used a yoshi undertail pipe in place of the Roden box they removed.....why hasnt anybody done this with say a LeoVince LV-One??? Someone get me some pipe measurements I might just do this!!

The issue is clearance

i like the way that full low spark exhaust sits, but i just saw on their website, 112dBa... WAY too loud for me

I thinking a shorter pipe like this Jardine maybe even the Leo Vince but further up and towards the brake light like a Honda 600RR. Im thinking heat shield, custom bracket, and maybe a little bit of pipe to connect the the factory header and it may work? Looks like a trim down of the leo may make it work also?

someone has done it, but there were issues, like it was a track only bike and they basically took everything off the tail to make it clear.

http://indyducati.com/articles/view.asp?id=264 (http://indyducati.com/articles/view.asp?id=264)

looks like the jardine pipe would be the best bet. I can see the issue your talkin about in that article like no brake light, but he also used a full length rounder pipe. If i got a cheap enough Leo i could cut it down to about that size, im using a intergrated rear tailight so blinkers wouldnt be an issue. hmmmmm Have to keep an eye out on ebay and the 600rr forums for a dirt cheap jardine, I like the 2 into 1 pipe in the pic

Any of you guys know if Two Brothers exhaust any good? Besides Termis, two brothers is the only brand in my area. Do i still need to tweak my ecu if i decide to get two bros? Price diff between the two made me want to consider two bros, Termi  50% more expensive.

I had the two brothers slips on my 900, and it sounded great. I'll try to find a picture. Build quality was excellent.

How difficult is it to install and/or uninstall the removable baffles on the Termignonis slip-ons? I'm considering putting them on my 796, but am reading they are too loud with the baffles out and too quiet with the baffles in. I also read a thread a while back saying the baffles were hard to remove, but can't find that thread again.

By the way, Happy New Years everyone!

I posted advice on getting the baffles out here

Some Footage and sound of a SC Project 2-1 Full System.

Great product and extremely happy with the quality, finish, fit and SOUND!!!

It is not for the faint-hearted, but it's a great, quality sound. If its to pound you can always add the db killer which renders it EU complaint.

Enjoy.

Nice, I've been looking to replace my underseat exhaust. I've tried to get ahold of Motocreations for a set of Boomtubes but no joy on any feedback from them.

Hi,

What's the weight benefit when fitting the carbon Termignonis compared to the stock exhaust?

G

New exhaust for the 1100 EVO. Sounds awesome! Only a slip on but still very surprised with the quality. Havent seen a lot of people with this one.

I bought a used 696 with Termi's - how can I tell if it's been installed with the ECU/Filter? Sorry if this question doesn't really make sense.

At slow speeds 1st and 2nd gear, I'm hearing a little backfiring when letting off the throttle.

If am upgraded ECU was installed, I believe the word "racing" will scroll across when you first turn the ignition.  Hopefully someone can confirm that is correct.

The best way is the remove the tank skin and lift the tank (and the overflow/ vent hoses). You'll be able the see the DP ECU and reference it by product code.

If you pull the airbox lid, you'll be able to see the filter type. Stock filters have an orange ring and paper filter media. I cant comment on what the DP filter looks like since I have a K&N.

This may sound like a lot of work but its only about 30 minutes time.

 I think that looking at the display is easiest. It will say if the kit is in there, it says Racing.

Just got mine back and had the Leo Vince slip ons tucked up and in against the bottom of the seat.  Looks a lot better than it did, and sounds great.  Too loud without the baffles in, so I'll probably install them soon. Pretty happy with the new look.

Looks great, share some details on what / how you had it done.  I have termis and this looks like a great next mod.

I took it to a small, custom welding shop that does mostly high end cars, but dabbles in bikes and explained that I wanted the exhaust valve removed and the Leo Vince cans tucked up and in.  He did an amazing job cleaning it up and I'm really happy with the look.  I haven't ridden it yet as the roads are still covered with winter salt and gravel, but I can tell you it's ridiculously loud and shoots the occasional fire ball out the back when I blip the throttle.  I'm going to put the db killers back in and hope it quiets down a bunch, and go from there.  I also have a Duc ee valve eliminator on the way so I can completely remove the motor.  Right now, the cable is off and the entire valve assembly and y pipe was removed and I haven't seen a CEL light, but we'll see how that goes.

It's definitely "snappier" in sound and has better throttle response, but I do need to address the noise issue before I can ride it. 

Not sure if this is mentioned as Ive seen a few posts about the SC Project Exhausts.

I wanted a GP style exhaust to eliminate the "moped" skinny tire/huge cans look I really disliked about the 696. (especially sitting next to my brother's R1) After a 2 month wait for a Spark exhaust that never showed I found that SC Project offered a low exit MotoGP style kit for the 796.  After speaking with G-Force out of Thailand they assured me that the 796 GP kit bolts up to the 696 without issue and sure enough they weren't kidding.  Bolts up with no issue*

*Okay there is a very minor issue and its that the O2 sensor out of the rear (top?) head interferes with the rear brake line.  I went to the local auto parts store, grabbed a Ti exhaust wrap and heat resistant sleeve and wrapped the pipe and sleeved the sensor et voila! no more issues.  Fits like a glove.  That stock system is a PITA to remove without removing the tank.

Pros:

Gets rid of the moped look
Loud as all hell
"can" is removable so you could probably switch to another slip on if you wanted to
Ti pipes turn a freakishly cool Blue color after heating up
Cleans up the back of the bike tremendously

Cons:

No Db Killer
Loud as all hell
Will require some sort of fuel modification or ECU flash (z-Fi, Rexxer, etc...)
O2 sensor on the mid pipe is kind of unsightly sticking up just in front of the rear brake lever/pedal (which is removable with the Rexxer Ive been told)
(http://i68.tinypic.com/349f6lz.png)

Mine.. keeps some distance in the pipes to maximize the power curve through the RPM range. Sounds good without a baffle, loud enough but not obnoxious douchebag type loud.

Hello everyone, I've just joined the forum today, and my goal is to try and identify exactly what model of Leo Vince I am in possession of. Before anyone asks, NO I did not steal them, they were on the 2012 Ducati 696 that I bought on craigslist, which I have since totaled. So I am now trying to identify them to find out exactly how much they are worth, and I'm having trouble.

All I know is that they are some kind of SBK, which is all it says on the actual cans. So if anyone has seen these particular exhausts before, please, I am begging for any more information! Thanks in advance fellas

(http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b616/fbeetleson/Both%20Exhausts.jpg)

Leo Vince constantly updates their products.  SBK is an older model if I remember correctly.  You could try sending a photo to  infousa@leovince.com  I wouldn't worry much as long as I am sure of fitment.  They do make great exhaust.  A fair price compared to any quality brand and they should move quickly.

Nice looking exhaust... how did they sound on the 696?  Leos are on the short list for my 796... 

I really liked the sound, from what I remember they were a very unique sound, but not too overpowering. I would absolutely recommend them.

For anyone who might be wondering, I got a reply from a Leo Vince rep who says that these are from the "Oval" series model no. 8136, probably because they are ovular in shape...

 (http://www.redmoto.cz/user/shop/big/1792(1)(1).jpg)

Carbon or blacked out would look good.

Nice!   [thumbsup]

Mounted the Spark High a couple days ago...

My personal feeling is a monster is not a monster if it doesn't have dual high mount cans. Just my personal opinion.

Finally got a set of Arrows on the 796!  They look pretty nice, construction is pretty good but the cans don't line up at the rear... the left can is 'clocked' a bit further in... someone at Arrow needs to reset the welding jig.  Install was easy enough, even without any instructions.  Biggest problem was trying to form the muffer band around the exhaust can, with the rubber piece trying to fall out all the time.

I was actually surprised... when I mashed the starter button the first time, I had to do a double-take to make sure I actually didn't have the factory cans on it, it was so quiet.  A subsequent 100mi road trip proved otherwise, however.  The low-end has increased a LOT, I can take it down to about 3200rpm now without all the herky-jerky, and the top end is much stronger; this on the factory ECU.

Pulling the DB killers out, however... jeepers! those things are loud!  As much as I love the sound, I will need to run the DB killers... after modification!

Anyone have any experience with the straight DBK's and how to mod them?  I've looked at a few videos, but most of them are for I-4 bikes with different DBK configurations.

I experimented with a few modifications on my Arrow DBK's, including adding holes in both the length of the baffle and in the end, but at the end of the day there was little difference... so I just chopped it all off.  Currently, the DBK's have 2" of pipe internally...

Full length DBK...

...and the modded (L) and unmodded (R) cutoff pieces.

Road test to follow...

EDIT:  Road test!

Took the 796 out Friday night... the cut DBK's are perfect!  Still more power and lugging ability, good sound without the boom.

One of these days I'll ride out with the DBK's in, and ride back with them out just to see if there is any real-world benefit to the extra noise.... but I find it unlikely it will be anything earth-shattering.

They look great Dennis!

Thank you, Mark!  I probably need to show them to you first hand... we need to come up with a ride, again, soon!

Low mount SC-Project that replaced Carbon Termis, so Termi ecu still there, along with PC5 and O2 Optimizer. Had her dynoed, so runs a lot better below 4000. No two dynos are going to agree, but mine registered 86 rwhp on this dyno. Since then 24000km service, and the mech said my desmo closing clearances were loose, so might have improved. Feels a little smoother, but I could be kidding myself.

You are correct to ignore the peak numbers and focus on the before and after curves.

What make/model dyno? Latest Dynojet dyno programme reads up to 10% lower than previous software on the same machine. Factory Pro dynos also read lower than previous generation Dynojet dynos. This is what industry insiders have told me.

Custom made 2in1 pipes on my M796abs and Hp Corse Hydroform muffler. In real, sounds is crazy, like proper Ducati....

Dynojet.

Cool.  [thumbsup]
There are different Dynojet models and even the same model can vary due to different maintence and software upgrades, etc. I have seen the numbers drop 10% or more due to new software, so even the comparisons on the same dyno only go back so far. After a period of time I have to add 10% to get the readings comparable over the years.

Nice shot! Which exhaust is this?
