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, 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...

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!

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.
