RE: Pipemasters

Paul,
	Good to here you are close by.  I sent an email over to them for input on 
a custom system.  Since Baby has been put to rest I am going to buy triple. 
 Black widow makes an underseat exhaust for the bike that requires 
extensive mods to the bike and yet more motor work to max out the pipe. 
 Not to mention it is $1200+ from Black Widow for a "slip-on" kit, I think 
it was really designed for the Daytona and I think the system Grant has 
looks better.
	I am thinking that I could avoid a lot of this if someone else comes up 
with a pipe similar to the one Grant Soosalu had made up through Pipeline. 
It didn't look like he had to put in a special battery/computer tray stuff. 
 I want something similar that either comes very close to Triumph race can 
performance.  If it comes in at better than that excellent.  I would 
inquire about pipeline's pipe as the triple has the very same motor as the 
ST/RS but I can not find email for the company and I have yet to discover 
someone capable of mod'ing the FI to properly use it.  I have even sent 
word through to Sagem trying to get info that way, even buy a latest 
version control unit to learn how to mod it, to no avail.
	The only problems I can imagine is that they (Pipemasters) are over there 
and I am over here (USA) so where are they going to get a 2000 Speed Triple 
to fit it to.   And two, are they capable of modifying the FI.  In any case 
I should have some word back from them in the not too distant future.  As 
for as intel for me, are you interested in an under seat exhaust?

Martin,

They're just up the road from me (literally 5 mins. away). Reputable
company, been around for years. I've not had dealings with them personally,
but have asked for general comments from a mate who has. He had them build 
a
custom system for a super-motard special he built, he knows them well and
I'm pretty sure he was satisfied with their service. I will post his
comments when he replies. Is there anything specific you wish to know? Be
happy to gather intelligence for ya!
