Title: Ajko
Post by: hackers2r on August 07, 2010, 03:26:53 AM
Anyone seen this system they did yet?  Badass looking but no sound!  How is Ajko's quality?  Enjoy

That's beautiful. I love the hand made, all pie cut exhausts. They potentially lose a small bit of power, but the handmade, lovingly constructed, mechanical look of it makes me lust for something like that.

Looks like the header is blocking the oil filter...

Yea, but based on the fact that you will have a mid rare right leg in no time flat, changing the oil wont come too often....

I love the craftsman-ship, and know it takes a long time to fab something like that by hand....but I'm a function over form kinda guy.  No way I'd buy something like that and have to remove it to perform routine maintenance.

Anyone looking for low pipes with a high angle, these would be nice.

I would think that exhaust would sound similar to the Zard.

I think the zards are 2-1-2 not 2-2 but i could be mistaken. if you look close it looks like there is an H pipe in there.

the Ajko are true 2-2

just change your oil every 100 miles, no big deal...   [roll]

I was at Target today and heard a lawnmower coming up.  Loud and high pitched...

and then I realized it was a Ninja 250 with what looked like V8 can for exhaust.

All of the suburban housewives stood transfixed, annoyed but slightly sexually stimulated.

I realized I have been willing to pay too much for an exhaust.

If you had the ajko setup, instead of just staring you might have had a few of them wait to chat  [wine]

Nah.

A lot of flirting and not much action.

Besides, my uber-hot wife might get a little annoyed.

both of these things seem like a pretty serious problem with this system. ignore the oil thing, how the hell are you supposed to avoid cooking your leg?

the over-the-clutch routing isn't that novel or problematic

I actually like the look of a few of their mufflers:

I tend to agree with the lot of you about the problematic pie design, I much prefer the stock routing - it's just the beautiful pie cuts & welding that make this stand out. If this came with the stock routing + all the awesome sexy welding I'd sell my wife to buy one.  [moto]

that has 2 guards that are each larger than the one in the OP. it also tucks behind the frame at the most necessary point.

Anyone try and contact these folks for a price on that S4R exhaust?
I sent them an email a while back through their website but never heard back.
