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... Undecided

Any opinions on this?

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.

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





I think they all look good. The Ti really stands out on a black bike whereas the CF blends in on a black bike.

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  waytogo

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.... Huh?

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.

Then get Titanium. No reason to fight with your wife over a sensible decision!
