Title: Carbon or Titanium exhaust on Dark bikes? Post by: vigge79 on June 24, 2010, 07:03:25 AM I've always been dreaming of carbon but now my dreams is coming closer to reality and I'm doubting, maybe titanium cans will look better... :-\
Any opinions on this? Title: Re: Carbon or Titanium exhaust on Dark bikes? Post by: Heath on June 24, 2010, 07:18:43 AM which dark and what exhaust system?
I had Titanium Zards on my s2r 800 and they looked very good. Ended up switching to some Carbon Termi's which I like better. There are some people on here that have titanium Termi's on their M696 and it looks very good too. Title: Re: Carbon or Titanium exhaust on Dark bikes?

I use carbon in most cases- but I have titanium cans on my red 996R, black 999R and black SC1000.

The Ti really stands out on a black bike whereas the CF blends in on a black bike.

Post by: desmoworks on June 24, 2010, 07:30:32 AM I really like Ti with dark bikes if it is a cool looking exhaust as it pops out more. If it is something like a stock exhaust I'd rather it be black so it fades away [thumbsup]

Title: Re: Carbon or Titanium exhaust on Dark bikes? Post by: IdZer0 on June 24, 2010, 09:25:35 AM I bought the Alu Termis because I think they look beter on a Dark, now I wished I'd gone with the CF ones for the sound!

I think the alu sound better in most cases because CF pipes require more packing.... ???Title: Re: Carbon or Titanium exhaust on Dark bikes? Post by: IdZer0 on June 24, 2010, 08:09:50 PM The Alu Termis have a more booming sound to them; the carbon ones are more throaty. The booming is also reinforced by the closed helmet and for me has reached the obnoxious level. Carbon ones have a lighter crispier sound. To each there own taste I guess.
