I'm looking to buy a new can end for my SV650 k5 and the other day I found a nice looking can in ebay that was sold quite cheap. It was a PRP (Performance racing parts) can, but I never heard of them before. Does
anyone knows anything about this maker? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=150319767474 |

Looks ok even though the guy is wrong when he says it will fit '98 onwards. The pointy exhaust has a larger downpipe diameter.
Any can will do, the SV isn't that sensitive to cans. Fuel is about the best budget (~£120) ones out there and is English and has a guarantee. |

My mate had some cans made up for his duke 999 by prp and they dont look too bad, i wouldnt say theyr as good quality as fuel/ccc but you get what you pay for at the end of the day. Think he paid bout £200 for a pair but i think hes put the prices up a bit now.
If it was me i would rather stump up the extra 20/30 quid an get a fuel can after seeing my bros falco with em on - wat a noise!!! ![]() |

I sent them an email asking how much for that tri-oval can in carbon with a hi-level link pipe and a removable baffle and i just got the reply... £195 plus postage. It looks like they are not as cheap as i thought.
Do you think it worth to pay that money for a PRP can? |

Going on the quality of their cans and my CCC can i would rather pay the £198 i paid for my twin exit carbon can, ok it was only a standard link pipe but i dont think theres much price difference between the two.
Mine came with removable baffles aswell but i think most cans do nowadays anyway. I would have to mention aswell that my mate with the duke recommended them to another mate from work but he wasnt happy with it and sent it back, might be a one off though |

Bit of a long story but basically i had a bit of an off last year an scraped the standard level link pipe i had so i decided to get a high level one.
My mate wanted a half system for his duke and went to prp to get it sorted, the guy at prp gets all his pipework made at a small workshop near market rasen which is where my mate had to leave his bike to get all the pipework formed. I started speakin to the guy there an he said he could do me a high level link pipe quite cheap and i found that they do some work for Bike-it so the pipework wasnt bad quality. Did take a second attempt to get it right though but now i really like the look of it. The pipework on my mates duke looks really good but i just didnt like the look of the cans, where normal cans have rolled ends on the exits his had what looks like a weld seam thats been ground and polished. My mates really chuffed with it cos it was cheap an a one off but id have rather paid a bit more to get better quality |
