Hi everyone i picked up a leaflet this weekend for a company called the carbon can company. they make and fit exsausts for your personal taste. and i was told this includes the link pipes so anyone thinking about changing their exsaust or want something slightly different it might be worth a visit, they are based in the doncaster area cheers blinkey. phone 01302339031 www.caroncan.co.uk, email sales@carboncan.co.uk

sorry got my spelling wrong www.carboncan.co.uk

I think a few on here have them - I seem to remember Hanna has a pair of those cans - they sound good.

STAY AWAY!!!!!! Going on my own experience awful company to deal with, no customer service, they sent me the wrong size cans and with no baffles, never anwsered the phones or emails...gave up in the end!! The Carbon's starting to crack now

...will stick with Beowulf/Fuel/Blue Flame- Good customer service and plenty of recomendations from here

To ballance that, I got a set of carbon can co carbon cans (from fleabay) and they've been great. They are early ones so perhaps the quality has deteriorated with time. I called them to ask about a chip to match the cans for the falco and although they didn't have Falco specific ones they did have Mille chips, got one quicksmart for 80 quid IIRC, that was in about 2003/04.

yeah seemed when i posted my probs on Af1 last year, a few years ago they were a good company and i liked the look of the cans etc. something has changed since, the Website gives you an indication of what a poor company it is compared to others, as i said never picked up the phone or answered emails etc. Just my opionion based on recent experience of course, shame because they do look and sound good!!

Hanna does have a set of their cans and they do sound good

if and when they need changing we will go for blue flame though

Have you told her?

rofl..when ccc's were good, blue flames were falling apart all the time.. seems things have reversed somewhat by all accounts?

I first fitted CC'ns on the Falco over 8 years ago then dropped them onto my old Suzi GS500 work hack and my son's GS500 then transferred to my present Fazer work hack.

Overall, over 90,000 miles on them and they're still going strong

The way to identify the older cans (IIRC) is the sticker on them.

New ones have an oval sticker with the name on it.

Older ones have the name written out in full, not contained in an oval.
