Scorpion Exhaust
Is this the only end can on the market with stainless steel internal wrapping material (Never Needs Repacked Technology)? What is the general overall consensus of Scorpion exhausts?
Cheers, Richard |

 I can vouch for the quality of their cans but I am pretty certain that they are not immune to needing to be repacked - whatever thay say! Mine did nearly 10,000 miles and was sounding one hell of a lot louder after about 5,000 miles!! HTH |

After 1,500 miles mine is running in nicely
 Set off a car alarm with it on the way home last night  Why bother re-packing it

Mine is Oval, but I doubt there is any difference between oval/round
It's definitely getting louder - not massively so, as if it's falling apart internally, but in a more controlled way - just seems a bit more throaty. Much much better than the standard can Scorpion were at the Ally Palace bike show, as were Renegade, and most of the others. You might be able to pick up a bargain there

I'm sure my Scorpion is getting louder. When I started the bike in the morning I was worried that I was going to annoy the neighbours, so I asked my missus if she could hear the bike when I started it up. SHe said not really. However, yesterday she complained that it was vibrating the entire house.
So that's nice!

Having followed Scoobs through the tunnel on the way to Brighton, I can vouch for the sound - couldn't hear my stock SV1000 cans over the sound of his 650 woth the Scorpion
I had twin Renegades on my 650, which sounded bl00dy awesome - a bit deeper and throatier (MISQUOTE ALERT) than the Scorpion
