I will be showing my latest exhaust project after over 3 yrs of R+D at homecoming this yr.Affordable,quiet and will last longer then your bike! No B.S.,just the best quality.Installed,and remapped to match your bike for under $500! I will post Pics tomorrow. | ||
| Mermark |
Let us hear it as well | ||
| F22raptor |
I wish I could record the sound digitally, but it seems like alot gets lost in the process! Any suggestions? | ||

Ready for pics! | ||

i'm not holding my breath for this | ||
| F22raptor |
Here are some pics (I was digging-out from a snowstorm this A.M.!) E-mail me if you want better resolution and more pics!   | ||
| Mermark |
Well it looks better than anything out there, if you can get one to Al @ American Sport Bikes and have him bless it you can probably quit your day job | ||
| Joel9 |
looks cool! how you mounting the chin fairing? | ||
| F22raptor |
Why would I give one to American sport-bike. I have many times the experience in E.F.I mapping and set-up.. I not bragging, just trying to keep it real. B.T.W, ANYBODY that knows how to run a dyno can make the numbers that they want! I chose a XB9 to show what could be done with a short-stroke engine (volumetric efficiency) Ignition timing maps make my 9 run hard below 4 grand, after that, good-bye to the 12's Next yr, I will install the latest crank and bigger throttle-bodies with shower head injectors to keep a safe red line at about 9k,should make about 100h.p. with alot of torque | ||
| Mermark |
Sounds good what's the final cost and because both my bikes are 12's does that mean I should wait ? | ||
| F22raptor |
Nope, got a map for your 12.... Hold on! Just keep in mind that that engine is not meant to spin....But I can make it awesome between 2-6k! B.T.W final cost is under $500 installed and mapped, sorry I will not send out just the pipe as there is alot of work to make it look real,(a.k.a. factory installed) I even mill the rear mount to fit! But it is well worth it, as what motivated me was all the crap out there. Taking a stock can and gutting it pisses me off as I have spent so much time in a flow-bench tuning flow and back-pressure. | ||

Can't wait to hear it. | ||
| Fast1075 |
That looks familiar. REALLY familiar. | ||
| Pontlee77 |
I was wondering, how would we go about if a couple of Spanish guys want one of your exhausts and mappings? | ||
| F22raptor |
Fast 1075, what are you insinuating, or are you just a a-hole by choice. I am not in this for the money, or the fame...There is so much crap out there that I thought I would offer a better option. The time I have into the removal and milling of the rear mount does not cover my time....Put your face closer to your monitor...so I can smack you!  | ||
| Damnut |
Can we see some numbers to show how much better this exhaust is from the others out there? | ||
| F22raptor |
It is WAY better! as stated before, you can make a dyno show what you want it to. I build and tune for real world riding....I also am the only one to offer NO popping on de-acell. I am not in this for the money (I have enough, thank you!) I am just offering a option. I also own Ducats and was surprised by the aftermarket crap being sold for Buells. Anybody who paid out $400 to have there stock can cut open and gutted, only to sound like a elephant farting under water, is beyond me!  | ||
| Guell |
Honestly, i would want to see dyno numbers, and the fact that you have to install it kills it for me anyways. | ||
| Blackm2 |
 So far all we hear is talk. Why would you start this thread, saying you are releasing this great product, with no details, no numbers, old pictures, and no video? Were you starting it just to smack talk people that are wanting the details of this great product, or the ones that pay you a compliment? Mermark and Joel both paid you a compliment, didn't see a thank you. You need to learn a little about business and dealing with potential customers. Maybe you should take an example from Erik Buell. Don't say anything about a product until it's ready to be released, and be HUMBLE. The only A-hole here so far is you. Anyway, don't you need to be a sponsor on here to be pimping your merchandise? | ||
| F22raptor |
I Don't want this coming to a pissin' match, so I am going to ask a moderator to remove this post....B.T.W. Eric lives literately in my back-yard, across from a wildlife refuge. He offered me a job, Please pull this post, so I don't have to hear anymore crap. | ||
| Mermark |
Dude don't remove the post everyone that has skill dont have the interpersonal skills and it's ok Einstein had thin skin too, if you believe in your product keep pushing it I got two different pipes the Edlebrock and a drummer and if yours is better I'd like to have it, dont let emotion override the opportunity to share let's not judge until we try his pipe | ||
| F22raptor |
Mermark, all I got to say is "Thank-You" and for you understanding that I am trying to raise the bar in terms of quality.. (Message edited by f22raptor on February 28, 2012) | ||

As far as the sound, you're always going to lose 'something' unless you use a few professional mics and have someone actually do a mix down to try and replicate what it sounds like in person. The problem is when you record a video on your cell phone (crappy mic) and play it back on your computer (crappy speakers), it's going to sound like crap. If it were mine, I'd run a couple mics (SM57 and a Beta-52 for bass) and put into a DAW to get a mix down and time align it to a video if you wanted. Then you'd just need to make sure everyone had good speakers or headphones to listen to it. | ||

Raptor, PM sent, with questions on turn around time for such a modification on an '06 XB9. Thanks in advance, Keith K |
