Aftermarket exhaust question ...

Looking for a complete exhaust upgrade but there are still many that are in the developmental stages so I may be better off to wait. At any rate, I have my eye on the HKS titanium ... is anybody out there using it? If so, how does it sound and are u happy with the performance. Also, can anybody recommend other full set-ups that they fully satisfied with? Any help would be appreciated .... thanks!

I've only been hearing good things about the HKS Ti. HKS in general has always been good quality and the titanium has to be nice as far as wait reduction.

The only thing I have bad to say about the TI HKS is the fact that is does not have the bung weld like MYEVOVIII said other then this it would be a great set up

Cheap fix...Take it to your local muffler shop and have them weld in one. Should be less than $30

Not if the tubing is Ti, you have to seal the tube and fill with Argon (I think), local shop will not be able to weld on the bung. Here where I live we have several Ti bike manufacturers who could handle it.

Ignore all this if tubing is steel!!

Have been looking at all the exhaust options around... but I have narrowed it down to Buscher Racing and Ultimate Racing, however I am leaning towards Ultimate Racing because it's local. Has anyone tried their exhaust yet?
