Which Exhaust?

Hi

In my little track off last weekend, I damaged one of my GPR cans. It's not ruined and would be fine on someone's commuter or track bike, but my Falco is my pride and joy and I want it to be perfect, so it will need to be replaced.

I've spoken to GPR and they still make the same "Carbonox" finish cans that I have, albeit with slightly different labels and hanger straps, so I could just buy the replacement. But the guy then pointed out that for about the same money I could have a pair of new Furore Nero cans including link pipes and hangers, and that unlike the Carbonox they were available immediately from stock.

I think I will probably go for the Furore Neros unless I find something better. I don't want to go with a naff make but cannot seem to find much for the Falco from the top make such as Akrapovic or Arrow.

Avoiding the budget brands, what do people here have/recommend?

Also the GPRs will be for sale afterwards, if anyone wants.

Cheers

I have beowulfs on mine, I think they sound great and look good too. Also come with a lifetime warranty.

I had a full akra system on my CBR and I didn't like it. I've never really rated akras, they seem to be the status symbol of the ill informed. In my humble opinion.

If I was going to change which I may do one day I'd probably go for GPRs

I fitted a pair of Fuel cans to the blue Falco and was well impressed with build quality, fit and finish. The mounting clamps were top quality as well, and they are by no means the most expensive out there. They also come with removable db killers; an important consideration for some.

But my other Falco has Akras, so you'd probably do well not to listen to my ill informed opinion...

Sorry, Mango.

Horses for courses and all that. It would be boring if we all liked the same stuff.

Thanks, the New GPR Furore Nero are looking like the ones to go for then. If love to find something cool though. Zard or something.

Beowulf and Fuel don't do it for me as I'm too much of a tart.

No worries...

Different opinions and views are what make the world go round. I'm pretty old-skool in my tastes. I like oval titanium or stainless cans with a single outlet. Don't really get on with triangular cans, double outlets, carbon shrouds on the outlets etc.

But I do like the MotoGP style exhausts. Just not too keen on the price (and not sure if they match the Falco's styling either).

I've been very happy with my Fuel can and would certainly buy from them again.

Were I looking for expensive pipes, the likelihood is that I'd go for one of those those beautiful Tigcraft systems.

I've had blueflames on mine for years, pretty happy with them. Removable baffles (I'm sure they're in a drawer somewhere...), nice sound

I followed someone with (I think) Beowulf triangluar exhausts. Looked very nice, and sounded like thunder.

Hi all,

I have TwoBrothers carbin on mine

But, l do like the GPR one's you mention. Also, those Mivv cans look and sound awesome, not too expensive as well....

Both come from italy, so they will be good anyways. A pic or vid on youtube would be good for us to watch when you have fitted them. I have bought some GPE poppy cans for my ZX12R

Ordered a pair of GPR Furore Nero cans earlier today. BOOM.

They look wicked, how much did you pay? Can you put a pic up when you have them fitted?

Will do. They should be here by tomorrow.

I paid £360 including VAT and delivery for the two cans, straps and link pipes. They come with circlip-retained two-stage baffles (which I'll be taking straight out of course).

Hi all,

OK Nicky, great price! Where did you get them from? Cheapest l got so far was £399. Might get some, as my gpe poppy from fleebay didn't friggin send them

Got a full refund though...

Post some pics when you've fitted them. They do look cool.

They're cool. Do they sit where the originals do or have you gone for a high rise kit?
