Installed it today, carbon fibre. Looks great, bike actually looks like a sport bike, not so goofy. Sound is FANTASTIC. Not sure it makes any real difference in power, but sure as hell makes a huge difference in the size of my smile when I button on. Very Happy Very Happy

Could not be happier. Got it from Morepowerracing in the states, delivered in 10 days as promised given the delivery option I selected. Second time I bought a pipe from them, would recommend them to anyone.

One question. What does repacking them involve. I see it has to be done every 5,000 miles.

I don't know of anyone who has had to repack any brand of after market muffler. I know that's what most of them say but I don't think it has to be done. Not for road use anyway.

Pull one end off and remove the filling and then repack it with fibreglass insulation. I wouldn't bother doing it. You may be able to change the note by packing tightly / loosely.

Vellies,

Nice look on your faired bandit.

I like to short look of the R77 & the throaty sound of the RS3.

Morepoweracing - CF R77 479 + 97 freight 576 usd. currently equates to 550 aud. Can pay CC or Paypal.

Been watching this one on Ebay. Works out to 530 aud (currently)
