If anyone is bidding on these, retract your bid.

Theyre not renegades. They may maybe have bits of renegades involved.. a bit of pipework maybe, but they are definately not renegade cans.

Also 'the carbon cans are fairly new.' they'd be doing really bloody well to make then renes.. renegade ceased trading about 5 years ago

the up pies from the collector are renegade - rest are not

i have what those purport to be in titanium - and they are different - the silencer comonents are held on by two long threaded rods, not rivets....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Indeed. It's the only way Rene built cans.

What makes RENEGADE RACE CANS unique amongst our competitors is that all component parts, including end caps, adaptors, clips, screws, nuts, etc. are manufactured from weather resistant 304 Stainless steel.

RENEGADE RACE CANS are not held together with nasty rivets, they have their own registered design assembly system which makes them easily detachable should repacking be necessary.





Because of this modular construction method RENEGADE RACE CANS are able to offer individual spares in the event of a mishap. We also offer an end of season overhaul and re-packing service at a nominal charge.

RENEGADE RACE CANS give an immediate increase in both mid range and top end power without any further modification.

It is however a distinct advantage to a DYNO JET kit fitted for optimum performance, as the power increase can vary from one engine to another.

RENEGADE RACE CANS prices are still very competitive in spite of all the above advantages over our competitors, of which we are very much aware.

We refuse to drop our standards to produce an inferior product, therefore only genuine Carbon fibre and 304 Stainless steel is used in our products. We now have added Titanium to complete our range.

Maybe just using artistic licence on the description.

The fulll system.. headers, collector links and cans with chip retailed at about a grand, so the current price would maybe be good for the 'renegade' part of that set up. the cans look like some of the ones on fleabay for @150 quid apiece, although the photos arent that brilliant, so again theyre secondhand but obviously worth a few quid which puts the current bids as cheap, just be under no illusion about those cans.. theyre not renes!

My own personal take on carbon fibre cans: Theyre carbon and going on a big twin so the least you'd want is to know the make.. for an indication of whether they'd last with a big twin smashing the crap out of them with it's pulsing. it does happen.

They look good though but that means nothing past 'they look good'
