Just installed the oval exhaust from APH on my 08 1125R. This slip-on is a beautiful piece of work all the way from design to execution. Tucks up very nicely. To my ears the sound is spot on-no tin or rasp-just a good hard hitting song. Thanks to Alan for his superb craftsmanship and first rate service. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
My exhaust cost me 400€, but it was on 3 unit order, two OVAL and one REVERSO. But the REVERSO is for an XB so I don't know how it sounds on a 1125, but I must say that is amazing on XB, sound great and it looks fantastic. Tomorrow I'll post some images from my friend XB
Honest the vid doesn't do the NOISE justice it is REALLYREALLYLOUD!nearly wet myself. It'll be awesome at 7k on the line,the silencer only loses a couple of mill groundclearance so if I can't stand the noise of the open pipe I have a light weight,free ish flowing quiet option. The megaphone length will get modified on the dyno for best length. A sidewinder would have got me another 1/2" of groundclearance,but would probably melt my right foot,so this is a great solution for me,nothing needs moving.

It really is tucked in close. I use the side stand mount to mount my air shifter and with it fitted the centre section is only the lowest point by 10mm. And like I said before no need for anything else to move.

s133py no foot melting issues i have some bends etc on order so i can make some more headers soon, once i make some more i can sort out a price, it will be good though they'll run pretty much along the lines of these ones
or i can modify stock headers so you can put the oe can back on if need be
Just installed my APH on my 1125R...Can't say enough good about it. Beautifully built, perfect fit, gorgeous sound( a touch loud when you nail it... so what!!) and, it seems to me, a bunch more power. Changes the entire look and character of the bike all for the better. I am set up with a K&N in the stock airbox ,APH exhaust and Buell race ECM done to Drummer specs.Sounds like a cross between a top fueler and a World Superbike machine. Yes, it will make you jump on startup.
