well guys great news i got my fmf powercore S exhaust it look great and sounds awesome its alot like an AKRAPOVIC the bad news is that it is a B*tch to put together you almost have to hammer the mid-pipe to the exhaust but its worth it. the fmf pipe does not even get no where as hott as the stock pipe. so less 3rd degree burns... as soon as i get the sound of it recorded i will post that too... (frankie's wife talking here) frankie will post as soon as gets home to see it...

frank,
can you elaborate a lil more on the installation process? i was a fan of FMF back in my MX years and am thinking of eventually snagging a slip-on for the streetbike. their prices are a little better than yoshi or akro to boot[^]

involves a canister and mid-pipe, one clamp and two springs.
the mid-pipe has to be inserted in to the canister before installed on the header but hi temp silicone helps it slide to gether easier but make sure u line up the canister before completely tighted.
overall and farely easy project. worthit for the sound and price!!!

thanks for the input, frank! cpl more things: are they 50state legal? are they quite a bit louder than the stock cannister(give examples of before and after decibles if possible)? did you go w/titanium or aluminum and what did you pay for it?

 

[Guido]

looks like aluminum in pic but cant be sure.

 

[kawi_ohio]

it is an aluminum powercore s i paid $289.00 sent to my house.

its not louder then stock and its a deep sound kinda like a vtwin.

 

[Guido]

heh...LOT or NOTlouder than stock?

twould seem pointless to get ifn its not louder than the stock can!

sorry i can't type yeah it is louder then the stock pipe
