I have nearly bought one of these several times and then read all the bad reviews, they just look so good and I keep going back to them. Not interested in negative reviews or comments just interested in hearing from anyone thats got one and loves it.
I too love the look of them (when fitted). The problem is the construction and materials. They are very poorly made and rust in what seems to be a short time. I couldn't part with that sort of cash for a couple of bean cans welded together.
I could make one of them for half the price if you like throwing money away mate. Look good , but power sapping. Your decision. Mine won't rot either???
Doesn''t look very efficient does it???? Mind you , neither does the standard system when you look at the cutaway pix that Arthur posted?
Ahh, the TM shame it looks like that imo, I know once fitted it looks quiet cool but not for me at all! It's mild steel too or plain TIN as I call it! One of few systems that lowers bhp....LOL mind you in my case prob not a bad thing! Saying that I have seen a few threads now where people can not remove r77's as they are stuck! I've had the problem a few times seems they shrink...had one the will NOT come off...LOL
agree looks great and I wanted one until I seen the pics of ones broken and falling apart after a year and how expensive it is also
If you're not interested in negative comments, I'll just say nothing apart from the do LOOK amazing when on the bike
Only not interested in negative comments because seen loads just wanted to see if anyone was out there using one and happy with it but does not look like it.
lol, sorry mate, PM Si1000Repsol or see here :- Welcome to my Repsol Fanatic Blog He has one and loves it, does look cool on his bike..
Had one on a repsol just bought another for my 2012' Not interested in the lack of power, can you really tell the loss in bhp? Not sure about them falling apart, mine haven't. I also have a Arrow, Akrapovic and Beowulf but still think the TM is the best looking
Just fitted one with PCV it looks and sounds great weather is wet for next couple of days so no test ride. will keep you posted
It's a pity other manufacturers don't make cans like this As that was the only thing I don't like about the blade. The exhaust looks like an after thought hanging out the side.
It's a shame Ive seen one, the story goes a mate brought one in to fit, now he's a CRAP welder and I mean SH£T should never have a welder full stop, he left the TM on my table while fetching other parts to fit, I swear I thought he had made it....lol had to google TM for me too see more images of the same.. I'm not a seeker of max power and yeah the TM looks ace on Si's repsol but you have a collection of nice parts and under that cover is that NASTY can... TM get your game sorted farm out your fab work do something anything but for gods sake clean up the can even if you can't see it. Rant over.....lol
I managed to get a good deal on my exhaust and happy with it. Fitment was an issue and took me ages to get the right fit. The carbon fibre is not brilliant and sadly the paint melted but got two new carbon fibre covers shipped from the USA free after i explained the issues. They are great for customer service. I have heard horror stories but have no complaints. In terms of dyno, I was obtaining respectable bhp figures thanks to the PCV, SFM and the HRP ducts. As a result, never put me off using the exhaust.
