I can't remember offhand but it is either 1 bolt or a circlip. Easy anyway.

They sound great and build quality is nice.

They sound good but that's bloody insane for a can. Beowulf sounds just as good for money.

Also I do not like carbon, you need to repack them regularly or the carbon gets blown to bits. More hassle than it is worth. Stick to stainless or titanium.

Maybe I am biased, beowulf is couple of mile from me and guy who owns it is spot on and helpful.

Great exhaust cans and really nice people to deal with. Can't fault my Warrior for fit or quality and is it LOUD!!! I've left the baffle in just in case I get stopped by the law.

Lovely sound. Baffle is held in by small nut and very easy to take out / put back. Good value IMO. The company will also supply a free link pipe if you ask, so you can put your old end back on, should you ever need or want to.

Beowulf are brilliant. I am due to get a second one this week to complete my twin can conversion. (titanium 450mm).
Love the sound. Chose them based on value for money and build quality and comments on here.!
