Carbon can? IXIL can ?

having a look on the net found some cheap cans. one made by carbon can? an the other IXIL? has any one had any expirence with these if so any good or should i just forget it ans stop trying to be cheap? jus budget bit tight as only just brought the bike and deperatly want tht after market can sound!!! any info would be great.

CCC have a good reputation, i can't really say i've heard a great deal about IXIL.

Another budget manufacturer which gets rave reviews is Fuel. Thats what i would get if i was on a budget.

Cheers, i have seen the fuel cans and was quite attracted ill check em out a bit more. thanks for the info.

Fuel!!

Good quality product and awesome customer service!

check out ebay, and the for sale section on here (if you dont mind 2nd hand)

CCC oval can, 10 minutes to fit to a pointy (with angle grinder). wifes reaction " is it supposed to sound like a harley?". That was 2 weeks ago, we have just started talking again.

I got it of e-bay for not much, as it was off of a curvey I contacted them (ccc) about a link pipe, they told me £35 inc postage but why did I want one? I explained situation and the guy told me that there was a 6.5 degree difference in kick out and that I wouldn't notice it and not to bother. I think that's good customer service.

Not seen a fuel but one of my friends has just brought one and is impressed with quality of it though.

Get a can though, really rich sound and lets the engine express itself.

a would advise you not to put a carbon can on an SV the power pulses are too strong and they rattle out of there rivets most companies will not give you a lifetime guarantee with a carbon on a twin or single, check these out £195 for a coloured titanium can with a lifetime guarantee

Carbon Can Company systems are excellent well made and ideal for fitting to SVs and their customer service is first rate. I highly recommend them. Do not make the mistake of assuming that a can from CCC is carbon

Yes, make the distinction between a carbon can and a Carbon Can Company exhaust that do excellent stainless steel oval cans for the SV. My conversion is on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5sbnSTW5Ak I reckon it sounds great, even with baffle in, and I coouldn't be more happy with it. £117 delivered off their ebay shop IIRC.

cheers guys, loads of info there. i defo want to get a can just for the noise. my bike is 33bhp so its not going make any diff to the power. cheers.
