firestorm exhaust sound

Post by solorider »

parked up my storm at asda and a bloke came up and had a look,he had to make sure what his ears and eyes were telling him,he realy thought my bike was a ducati (it was dark and at first he didnt see my bike) as he is an owner of a 996 ducati and he was impressed with the sound.mind you it does sound 8)

To be honest the cans I had made sound very similar with baffles removed, they are just there to help with MOT. Baffled exhausts should not sound like this :twisted:

Hi guys,
Just in middle of doing some mods on my storm which incl. fitting coloured oval titanium twin outlet hi level blue flame. The video's don't do the sound any justice far better than either sets of microns i have got still to get rid of and remus as well.

The cans are on offer at the mo on blue flames web site at £544 but I collected them (skelmersdale) and they did them for £510.

A MUST FOR ALL STORMS!!!!!!! :twisted:

My wife and college daughter would disagree at that price..im still scouring fleabay for a decent set of high level cans..budget of £150 is making it a little tricky though (got outbid by £16 about an hour ago)
