Just installed my TBR ti can today. I am utterly impressed with the sound. It isn't loud at all and the note is very low and mellow.

No riding today. Raining with a chance of ice.

Slippery soap and a big flat screw driver.... Not a good combination.
I'm amazed I didn't bleed to death !!!

I think it's loudest at idle. Once you're moving it's quiet if you short shift it, and it'll howl if you get into it hard. IMHO, that's kind of a "Win-Win" .

Overall, just cruisin' I think it's fine and all I hear is the wind over the windshield, the voices in my head, the Devil on my shoulder saying "Do it, Do it", and the Angel on my other shoulder saying "Do it, Do it".

I rode 20 miles after we tuned it and the sound is very very tame. Even maybe lame. I like it becuase it's quiet.

I've tuned about 6 bikes in the past 2 years. I've had several brands of performance exhausts (Muzzy, Yosh, Kerker, Jardine, TBR). All the bikes I've tuned are 1100 cc street bikes or larger.

This TBR titanium can must be the most mellow I've ever had. Very tame and I love it. Even when you screw it open it doesn't SCREAM. The most obnoxious I ever had was a Muzzy ona ZRX...ugggh!

Ready2go ( Wes ),
It looks like my bike may still beat the pipe to my house. I went out tonight and bought a C14 ( they're delivering it tomorrow ). The shipping info says my pipe will arrive on the 14th. thanks again, FBRR

I have the TBR titanium and I love it. FuelMoto sent me a map and it runs perfect! Just had to adjust the idle a little. I also installed the silencer and it dropped the sound to a much more tolerable level. I barely hear the muffler unless I hammer it past 4. I think it is the best looking on the C14.

Next week, might take the flies out.

DON'T TAKE THE FLIES OUT!

After I removed mine a very strange phenomenon occured. The front wheel mysteriously comes off the ground.

I heard Two Bros full system on a Yamaha R6 and it sounds so beautiful.Anybody has any idea if I can get the same sound on the GTR 1400.I like the sound of a superbike.

had a full TBR on my VFR800 and it was good... deep throat sound and a lot more torque overall, especially mid range.
on small bikes, tend to be higher pitch, and that with higher volume might irritate some ppl... a bigger displacement engine tends to run from that... I loved it, and will get a TBR full for the ZX14 (when i get it)

ZX14 it is (08 midnight-blue)...
Now need to get the bike and a list of mods for the bike: HIDs, AngelEyes, full exhaust (thinking Micron), pc3
that'll get me started.

When you mention cats, is it the ones in the collector box (the 2 pipes before the slip on connector?

The cons far outway the pros of having almost year round of bike riding weather in south africa .Riding a bike in south africa is something else to experience.
The famous south african mini van "TAXI"..most drivers of these "TAXI DRIVERS" totaly disregard red traffic signs, and stop signs."Rules of the road" means nothing to these guys.
I rode bike for 21 years in south africa.

Been riding bike for over 30 years and where-ever cages are involved, you must be wide awake, never met one of our "taxis" by accident. We have great roads with awesome passes to enjoy biking all year round. You can go in any direction from your house and find some great road with even greater destination to enjoy biking. Our taxis are not worst than driving anywhere else in the world.
