[ST] Remus Exhaust Report



Ok Dawgs I know you've been waiting with baited breath for a full 
report on the Remus exhaust, I received it about a hour ago, and 
fitted it in 20 minutes. So I'll not keep you in suspense.. In fact 
I'll even save you all the trouble of reading to the conclusion and 
just say up front that this is by far the nicest exhaust I've ever 
had the pleasure of installing! First off fit and finish are by far 
the best I've ever encountered, nicer even than the very pricey 
Staintunes.. The system just plain fits PERFECTLY no fiddling no BS 
everything just lines up first time on the button. A few of the nice 
touches are the connector pipe ( the system is two pieces ) which has 
the clamp built in, just slide it on and tighten. The can slides on 
the connector and is held in place by two very strong springs. The 
can itself is a tri-oval I got the Carbon Fibre and it's beautiful. 
In fact the whole thing is Stainless Steel, except of course the 
cover ( Titanium is also available). Another nice touch is that the 
can uses a bracket that bolts into it, very much like the stock one) 
so no messy clamps , very sano! Additionally it is one of the very 
few after market exhaust's that meets German TUV specs. Also unlike 
the Two Brothers it does not need re-packing and comes with a 2 year 
warranty. What else , oh yes it fits perfectly in either the low or 
high position; if using it in the low position just use the factory 
hanger that comes with the panniers. It's also way lighter than 
either of the Triumph pipes. As for performance can't tell yet, 
haven't ridden the bike, poor roads etc.. Sounds great though, about 
the same as the Triumph performance pipe in volume, nice deep meaty 
tone. So what more can I say.. well if you're thinking about a pipe 
for your ST or RS.. yup they do have one for the RS, I can't think of 
any other brand even worth considering. Belive me ( and I am awful 
fussy) the Remus is worth every penny.. maybe even a bit more ;-)
