Just thought i would post a few pics of the Beowulf Warrior's on my Falco.

First time i've tried posting pics, hope it works.

They look lovely! Sound to match?

Now chrome plate the rest of the bike to match.

Very nice anyway

They sound superb, deep and very loud, evan with the baffles in.

Nice

I have Beowulfs on mine although they are oval. I too love the sound but had absolutely no idea how good they sounded until I gave the keys to a mate and got him to do a flypast!!

I know it's my bike and I'm obviously biased but I don't think I have heard anything better going up my road - and there are plenty. They get to open it up fully about 200 yds up the road and it has put me off noisy 4 into ones for life. Amazing also how many sound like they are running poorly

Fausto- do you run them with the baffles in?
If not, have you had to change the air box, filter or mapping (chip)?

The bloke at Beowulf told me they are ok to run on the standard setup but I’m a bit worried derestricting it (snip and unbung) might have upset the fuelling.

I know this might be a stupid question but my understanding of the mapping and such like, is very basic to say the least.

Like you I’m well pleased with the sound, I drown out all the bikes I go out with, (except a 1098 with race cans), the only down side is my wife now wants a race can for her 600 gsx-r as she says its too quiet. have you seen the price of a k6 can

I'm liking the way the shape of the cans sort of reflects the angles of the tail section. Thought only round or ovals would do the job before seeing yours.

Morph, I run them as they came - with the baffles in. My bike has had the snip/basic airbox mod and it runs beautifully. Of course only time will tell if it's running lean and holes a piston or something but the exit openings/baffles look nice and black and the plugs looked ok when I changed them. Kwackerz suggested some useful basic mixture analysis comments recently and I'll be having a closer look sometime. https://www.ridersite.com/viewtopic.php?t=1786

Yea, pretty smart and something a bit different. Shiny cans, shiny bike

Pity about the 3" layer of dust on the rear rim though . Shocking.

Cheers Fausto, just had a look at Kwackerz tips, look useful.

Pierre – just glad you didn’t notice the chicken strips, there even bigger

Edit- Oh bugger you will now

When I first looked at it I noticed them ..... and then thought that it must be an illusion of the light or the camera.

Have you been hooked up to a sidecar or something?!!

Anyway, plenty of wear left there.
