I'm thinking of going with the classic Termi pipes on my S2R 800.  Can anybody give me some input on performance, sound, and issues I might run into with this?  I am not sure of what they will sound like so if any of you have a sound clip with them that would be great.  I'm also thinking of powder coating them but am not sure.   

Classic?  Not sure what pipes you mean... got a link to what you're talking about?

Oh, and FYI, you might get a better response to this sort of questions in Accessories & Mods - more people check that section

Some like Cromo's

Or like the GT1000's

and if a Mod can tranfer this thread to the Mod section it would be much appreciated.  I posted here because of the performance curiosity.

The sound will be raspy and metallic.  It's not quite the low thump people are used to from the CF pipes.  It's harsher, sounds mean - I'm not saying it sounds bad at all jsut different.  Some of the best sounding pipes i heard were the full system ti pipes for sport classics from Zard.  They sounded like something was being run over a grater... They rasped, they had a paricular 'clack' to them on decel... just mean and bad ass.

I'm not certain you can run those pipes on an S*R... the udder exits on the right for both pipes.

I imagine you'd have to do something creative in regard to pipes and hangars to get it work.

The pic of the sport classic is of a 2 into 1 set.  One of the locals around here was running something like that, that was done for the 900. 

I zoned out on the fact that it's an s2r bike.  That might make for some troubles.  The ones chromo has are for DSS monsters. 

You might be able to find some 2nd hand ARC fab slip on megaphones for your bike.  You can't get them new as ARC seems to have shut down. 


There's marvings

Choromos pipe

I was thinking of running a straight pipe and taking out the udder.  maybe some kind of cross-over rather than a two-into-one system.


Thank you...looks like I will have to be inventive if I want to do it.  I'm not sure how the S2R will sound with something like this but that classic sound is so sweet.  Something about the new systems mutes it and makes it sound too....refined.
