So I called Staintune
Posted: Thu Sep 04, 2008 4:05 pm
I made an enquiry to Staintune a week or so ago wanting to find out if they make a slip on for the ZRX1200R. They didn't return my email so I called them today. They don't make a muffler for the 1200 because they would have to fit a catalytic convertor to it and that the attempts they made to make a street legal pipe didn't work- too noisy. I asked them if they fitted cats to the ZZR1200 (i just sold) pipes that they make and he said they didn't because with a twin system they could get away with it.
I would like to fit an aftermarket muffler to the bike that sounds good, but not too noisy (gittin old and don't need any undue fuzz attention) is much lighter than stock (main reason - if the stock pipe was lighter I'd keep it) and looks good- has to be round (looks gay in my opinion having a circular front mount with an oval pipe) and not carbon as well as making some extra power everywhere with no flat spots or re-jetting. It should also last well, or forever! The staintune would fit the bill if they made one. A mate has a new pipe off his ZRX 05 model which should fit and never has seen exhaust gas. Could try and mod that. He fitted a Micron from new. Was oval too but nice. Micron have stopped making bike pipes now.
Any suggestions for pipes that would fit the bill? Ta.
