Title: KTM Finished.
Post by: MOzZereLLa on October 11, 2018, 03:41:28 PM
Not much pissing about with it. 

Tail tidy, seat cowl, bar end mirrors, de-pegged and AR shorty slip-on. The can is loud considering it's still bolted to the cat.

Cheapies from Amazon made by a company called Alchemy Parts - not Rizoma or Puig quality but OK all the same. I went cheap to see how I got on with them.

Look very similar the bar end mirrors I got for my Ducati that after a couple of months were absolutely covered in rust

They're anodised alloy - can't see how they would rust??

I avoid wet weather anyway but after washing it and leaving it no evidence of rust.

Hopefully they are different! It was the ball joint part behind the mirror that just went the fluffy orange

Looks awesome and the bike I'm considering if I was to chop in my 2003 R1.

Mini review?
Handling, riding style - sit up or more between sports bike and sit up style?
Power and delevier/weight.

Made me laugh that video. He has to be the biggest bell-end on the planet to post that.

Speeds that will get him a custodial blatantly posted on YouTube.

Great sounding can though 😂

I was a bit surprised, posting that on UTube. Does sound nice. Has he done the de-cat or is that just with the can fitted.

Post by: MOzZereLLa on October 21, 2018, 10:30:28 PM
Just the slip-on. Sounds just like mine.

It's amazingly loud considering there's a cat in place.

Makes you wonder WTF BMW put in their cats to strangle the noise as much as they do.

Same with mine.  You can take the can completely off and it's no noisier.  I'm guessing they must do it like that by design.

Akky Can on my S1000R sounds delicious...I'm too old for stupid loud exhausts now anyway. 😊

:shocked: Surely at your age and hearing degradation you need a louder can?

Not a hit Alzo - just wondered really. The KTM with the slip-on is just a tad too loud for my liking. Looks miles better mind.
