Matt, I'll try recording the sound of mine later so you can see for yourself. And yes, I think they do high-level ones, but you need to get rid of the topbox!

[french accent] Never! [/french accent]

I thuink there is sufficient gap for the high level zorst and the top-box rack to coexist, judging by what i've seen from others

Ooo i want a loud exhaust, dunno if there is any point while restricted but...i got a v-twin...

Yea, get us a recording, a good quality one in MP3

OMG!!!!! Just been quoted £745 for the Leo Vince system!! (Titanium) I think they are taking the mickey.

Set of Staintunes are £548, so I think they might get the vote after all!

C'mon Mike, it's only money.

Shop around or wait until the bike show, if you're going.

Hi level exhausts not a good idea if you do two up at all.

Incidentally Matt, are you joining us at Boxhill Sunday?

Well, it's not your money is it?

I'm struggling to justify £550 let alone £750.

Yeah, bike show could be a winner.....

Hehe - easy for us to say eh Luckypants!

I dont envy you twin pipe boys - the Remus for my Zed was £200 odd and that seemed like a helluva lot of money!

Just make sure you do that V4 justice!

This is true, I think I would perhaps have a heart attack at the thought of having to spend that much Although when I inevitably buy and expensive bike I will inevitably have to
