I have 0 photo shop skills so I am looking for some input from the DMF..    What would the M1100 look like with Zard style exhaust ?


here it is all stock


here is a shot of a full system without a pass bracket..  I think the full system was designed to tuck behind the bracket and in this case it looks funny IMO.


Here it is with the bracket in place but i think if the pegs are replaced with rearsets or modified it will look funny... 


What do you guys think ??

Love the looks of the Zards.  The Termi's look good too.  I saw some dyno numbers some time back that showed those zards on a Sport Classic to be a little behind vs. the Termis power wise.  Not a big deal if the looks mean that much to you.  I'm sure the sound is excellent.

Go opening things up much and you got the whole ECU thing to think about.

Once again, if MonsterMash is re-flashing ECU's it would make a difference.

Brad Black posted some good numbers in his articles that included those very zards maybe. 

Jebus, those Zard xhaust do look good don't they?

The Zards would look amazing on the bike!

You get the idea...

now would it work visually with no passenger peg bracket ?

Need someone with better photoshop kung-fu

i think what someone needs to do is use the rizoma rearsets that have the extended passenger pegs. it's not the fact the passengers pegs are on the stock it's the SIZE of the stock casting. thin rizoma billet pegs in black would look great. and even with passenger pegs wouldn't detract from the exhaust and swingarm

IMO, you could put those Zards on a turd and it would look good.  :D   [moto]

Munch's Photoshop is good enough for me!!   [moto]   [thumbsup]

However, some angles might need tweaking.  One of the reasons that the Zards look so good on the P. Smart is that the lower outlet follows the line of the "hump" in the swingarm and the upper outlet is tucked up high.

The latter could be reproduced on the 1100, but the SSS on the 1100 precludes the former.

All I can say is I heard an 1100S with the full termis and it was bliss! The stock cans sound nice, but not even close. It's like listening to Iron Man through your TV speakers vs. a full blown THX surround system. Okay, not that dramatic, but you get the picture.

I heard THIS bike with this fully massaged system on it and it is a nice and nasty sounding piece of work...Donnie did a fantastic job with it...and is still considering some more to boot!
