New Exhaust System

[bandet01]

nice looking bike but i will just buy mac are a jardine system for my bike

oooops off with the seat to fix the grab rail......don't use that much so did not notice. Thanks you observant lot. I could have said I was just testing you :-)
All over the system is nice and sits the same as the original 4 in 2 as far as spacing and distances from all the other bits. I can only recommend highly, would try to put a recording of how it sounds later

[bandet01]

i bet it sounds good but how long is it going to last before it rust out or needs replaced

.. ok, i dont have a sign on my key board for the english pound so i'm going to use this #s insted
.. i have found several places in the UK that sell the Motad XS11 exhaust but these two places seem to have the best prices:
.BB Bike Shop UK 219.16#s after VAT, converted to US dollars is $376.73
.LM Spares UK 222.13#s after VAT, US conversion $381.05
i think that VAT is a tax, if these taxes dont apply to people outside of there country [thats a big IF] then these prices will be about $32 less.
these prices are not that bad for a really good product, triple chrome with care will last a good long time, definitely worth looking into
..also i'm not sure but shipping might not be as much from UK to US as from UK to Sydney, but the shipping cost will definitely bring the price of these up
.. the part # is: M11Y for those interested
. by the way auxtian your bike looks super cool even with the grab rail upside down ..and your new exhaust looks better than any of the cheap crap they sell over here for our bikes at the present time

yes vat is a tax over here and you will have to pay it even though you live in the usa,

I don't know how many here in the states have this Motad system. I've never seen one in person. But I just bought one about 10 minutes ago.

After I get it installed I'll post pics and let all know how it went.

This exhaust issue is one of the areas where the Eleven has few options here in the states. If you can't find something used...it's either a MAC or Jardine. Kerker, Supertrapp, Vance and Hines, an dHooker have all stopped making them for the Eleven.

MAC used to make a 4-2-1 for the Eleven called a "Tri-Y". They claimed this design was not as "peaky" as the typical 4-1 design and developed power over a broad range of rpm (4000 to redline vs. 6000 to 8000).

This Motad was the only 4-2-1 I could find IN THE WORLD for our bikes. I've been watching ebay for a long time now and have not seen any other 4-2-1 systems. Alot of 4-1 but no 4-2-1.

Here's the specs on teh old MAC tri-y system that our resident XS Guru Dan Hodges sent me.

Also there is Marshall Exhaust in England but I went for the Motad, they also make the Venom racing exhaost systems.
