All these pipes look good as they probably sound. One question comes to mind though, how far/long before they need repacking. I'd think they'd burn out fairly quick at highway speeds? Also, isn't the Staintune all metal? if so will they burn out?

Now just gotta figure out removing the secondary flies and a good map for it!

be77solo- I love the look of the rear, all cleaned up and the plate tucked up nice and neat. Where did you relocate the license plate light or did you just go without?

I'll try to get a better clip this week.
Well it took me some time to get it to play; but it was worth it when I figured it out! Yes, that clip won't even load, let alone play using the Firefox browser Under IE, it works; and I just love the sound

I've got the same pipe here in Houston, TX. Yeah, it screams when your on the throttle just like a 1000 liter race bike. I love the sound and when your in traffic they know your ridin something with lot's of attitude. I've check all the pipes and have to say Hands down this is the best pick out of Muzzy, AreaP and damn near close to a Hindle exhaust but cheaper. Did you all know that Muzzy and Hindle make the dual exhaust unit for C1400, GTR's? You decide what's best for you. Cheers!

Packing will all burn the same on the Two Brothers. Just that Carbon Fibers are not meant to do Dyno runs. You would need to go with a SS model for that. As for the packing they also sell the packing kit for around $20.00 on the Two Brothers.com website. AreaP will sell you the slip-on SS model for $400.00 if you mention to the owner your part of the group buy program with TSBA.org. Mike is the guy who set up this deal. Lifetime on the Packing but you pay for the shipping.
Here's the deal from Kerry Bryant.
Hi Tony,

Once again, I do appreciate your interest. The Muzzy price I noted was for Carbon Fiber (not Stainless Steel). Our Stainless Steel prices are similar and our build quality is second to none. The Carbon Fiber price is much less (than Muzzy or Two Brothers). Two Brothers does not offer a stainless steel muffler.
Two Brothers sells here in the U.S. thru some vendors that will ship for a total
$400.00 but will not offer a lifetime repacking.

You Choice.
http://www.areapnolimits.com/home.html

While once again appreciated, our name has been getting noted on a global scale and sales are very brisk on the C-14 system under the Area P name (and/or without the name as we offer them without any branding on them). We also manufacture C-14\GTR exhaust systems for many other companies as well under our private label division (our primary business).

For the Polished Stainless Steel Slip-On, $395.00 with free freight. That is an excellent buy for a premium product.

Sincerely,
Kerry Bryant

Here are some pics and a short write-up on my experience with the 2Bros. I love it.

I just got back off my first out-of-state trip on the C14. It was awsome, despite the weather. Three Day Ride North

Been a Yoshi man, the TBR was my 1st move away from my beloved Yoshi, but am extremely impressed with the quality of the Ti and it sounds awesome, lots of other bikers come up to me and compliment me on the looks and sound. Waiting for my power commander & will remove the flies, wonder if it will change the sound?

Re: Loud exhaust

While I like the look of the Two Brothers exhaust for the Concourse 14, I am concerned about the noise level. Isn't the Concourse 14 a sport touring bike. And if so, does anyone think they can stand the noise level during hours of high-speed riding.

I tried a Two Brothers exhaust system on my '05 Suzuki DL-1000 and it was obnoxiously-loud. I finally sold it and bought a Remus system.

TwoBros Racing Exhaust on C14

Hi Guys,

Does anyone here with a twobros exhaust on the Concours 14 experience low speed throttle control problem?
