Got the pipe yesterday and installed it this morning. Sounds great. Loud enough to hear while riding but not too loud.

Awesome CB!!

Cant wait until my Sergeant Major of Finance approves mine. Torn between the Two Bros and the Area P Carbon though...

I dont even have the bike yet but does anyone know which one has a deeper sound? Also I have read about the power commander and do you have to get it when you change the exhaust, I probably get one, just dont know if I need to do it at the same time

Nice sound! Good on Ya!

Ozzy · 09-16-2007, 12:53 PM

looks to much like the oem canister for me :(

Chez · 09-16-2007, 06:18 PM

Yes deeper sound can be had by turning up more bass on the PC lol sorry couldn't resist that

cb11 · 09-16-2007, 07:06 PM

Too each his own, but I don't think it looks anything like the stock potato launcher. The sound is definitely better.

I think it sounds freakin awesome....wouldlike to see some better pics though.

So got my Titanium Two Bros pipe installed today, I freakin love it!! Totally happy with it, got it installed in about half hour when I got home from work, and of course had to go test ride and flog the thing! Sounds prefect for what I think it should on this bike, a nice throaty tone and healthy sound at idle and up to about 5K, then sounds good from there, but never gets too loud at all, and honestly, sounds a lot better down low than I thought it would but is quieter up top than I was anticipating, which is good cause when cruising in 5th or 6th gear, I can't even hear it till I drop a gear and romp on it... very good stuff!

As far as finish and quality, it's my first Two Bros product, but am really impressed. The titanium is beautiful, the tip is different than most pipes, a bigger magnesium opening, was really well boxed, and the VALE connector looks good and went together well... would definately purchase again. I bought it from Star Cycle, and got it exactly when promised.

Will get some pics up tomorrow of the pipe, haven't seen any online other than on the two bros website, but once i got home i had to give her a bath and by then it was dark.

Good pics. I was debating b/w the ti and the carbon but went with the carbon b/c of the heat. Both look great.

It looks and sound great. I've heard that a power commander or some type of fuel management system is needed if the pipe is changed, it that true? I really like that pipe but I would have to wait if I have to purchase a power commander too.

Looks good!!! Love mine!!!!!!!

I knew you'd like it.

zimmy14 · 09-26-2007, 07:57 PM

do you get any better performance ? i.e. speed ! low or top end ,and perhaps better mileage, please advise thanks jim

cb11 · 09-26-2007, 08:20 PM

Hard to tell for me. I changed it right after I did the first service so I only got to push the bike once or twice before I switched.

rifleman223 · 09-26-2007, 10:59 PM

Well, during lunch, I went to Cycle gear and there was an open stretch of road and I wanted to hear the pipes. First gear I shifted hard (only 7k mind you) and the front end came up. Whoah nelly!!!!

Hard to tell the difference, but who cares! I LOVE the way they look and sound.... I know, its shallow...

katamata · 01-26-2008, 06:05 AM

Is the pipe a full system or just a slip on?
