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.

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

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?

[semyhr]

Any user pics/videos of the RoadsItalia exhaust?

The good looking ones are the special design slip ons?

[Raux]

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.
