baracuda exhaust ???

Post by TONY-J »

hi, has anybody heard of or had any experience with baracuda exhaust systems??

they seem to be pretty cheap and usually you get what you pay for so thought id ask if anyone could give some info on quality, fitment and if they sound any good.
thanks in advance. :)

In my experience a good Cuda depends much upon the person fitting it. If you make sure it's well lubed up beforehand you can literally slip it in in one motion. But your aim needs to be good otherwise you can damage your little finger. HTH

back on topic (you sick fuckers)

I bought an Ixil pipe which at the time was under half the price of yoshi's and two-brothers pipes. Other than a factory fault which creates a ridiculously small leak at the bolt point (not slip on cuz its old) - its great. I love the fkn sound, and being a shorty its not a baby-cannon which i rather the look of.

That doesn't answer you Q about barracuda but... I got a cheap(ish) pipe and had a good experience. YMMV

well the barracuda is $750 including shipping for a complete 4in2in1 system and thats about half the price of anything else i can find, and alot of suppliers don't stock pipes for the zzr1100/zzr1200.

read some positive reviews, nothing bad as yet, and since theres not a shit load out there i might jump on it and take a chance.
thanks guys
