    Ciao Mega,
    Ho appena scritto un email al sito che hai procurato. Gli ho chiesto un listino prezzi, di un importatore o costo circa della spedizione qua. Ho chiesto anche della possibilita' di un acquisto scontato per il club (cafe Husky). Grazie di nuovo per l'assistenza. Sensa di te, credo che la possibilta di trovare scarichi per la TR era soltanto un sogno! A presto.....

    Just dropped an email in Italian to the link you provided and asked them about pricing, US importer, if not shipping costs and a group buy. Will post anything I get back. Thanks again for all your efforts. Without your help, I think the thought of finding a produced aftermarket exhaust was only a dream. Talk to you soon....

    I too sent a email to the one provided...cant wait. Biggest problem for me is choosing between all the choices.

    Wow...to even have 1 was a stretch I thought being as the bike may be a 1 or 2 year production run.

    Now tell me which you'd choose and the pluses or negatives to each. It seems the twin sounds really good...the only advantage to 2 is sound I'd reckon? Probably saving a bit of weight even tandem compared to stock...but going with the single saves the most and leaves a space for storage? Sounded less refined IMHO....if a single is ever "refined" ...lol

    Mega, you sure earned your title not to mention your bacon on this one mate! Thanks for opening this connection with great sounding folk at GPR. Really impressive amount of time and energy has gone into this level of development and array of options. Looking forward to seeing the finished product on our wheels this side of the pond!

    Only benefit i see with the twin can is breathability. Weather that's really an issue here i'm not qualified to answer.
    Quieter the better for me. As deep and grunty as the twin system sounds. In addition to the weight saving, i'd be leaning towards the single can, Just a tad quieter .
    Black by far the sexiest option. Ti if you want to shave a few more grams from the can and your pocket. Carbon, not for me. If all the other farkles are killing yer' pocket book. There's al;ways the cheap and cheerful alloy! Spoilt for choice is the problem!

    I noticed the same on the single. Maybe it was just the video. I would think the single would have more of the deep sound say like a cr450f.

    Pretty much going with a single. Weight as always will be a savings and my plan would be to fab a fuel cell in lieu of second muffler.

    information from the first (which I will confirm later) with single exhaust the bike has more pull at low. With dual exhaust, the bike has more stretch at higher revs.

    dalle prime informazioni (che vi confermerò più avanti) con scarico singolo la moto ha più tiro ai bassi. Con scarico doppio la moto ha più allungo agli alti giri.

    Am I right in assuming the dual option doesn't require the header...so we can simply remove and replace the cans? The single requires the purchase of the header? Can we guess at pricing based on what other systems cost from G.P.R..?

    Reckon they will hook us up with a group buy.? Gets kinda expensive pretty quick...just about a must for a PC or other tuner too? But it will sound and run better. Going to tell the Mrs it'll be better on fuel too? She's onto my tricks by now though....so not a easy sell for me. I need to sell some stuff.

    I like the sound of this, as much as i like the sound of the single can! Can we speculate on cost for the various options yet? Or group buy as suggested earlier?

    Just got a reply from a fellow at GPR named Alex. They are the sole distributors and willing to offer a group buy. He is sending me price list etc and info. Will be glad to post upon receipt.

    Sent an email too, but up for a group buy if can be arranged. It would save on shipping to the US from Italy, for sure. Leaning strongly to single can, but duals would work too and be an easier install. Storage unit looks good, and lots of space in there too!

    Toyboy started a thread for a group buy includes a download spreadsheet for optional cans - header. Looks like a go!

    They look like they belong on the bike! I'm still trying to decide between a single full system or the two slip on. Toyboy has a single full system on order, i'd like to hear some feedback on noise, performance once installed. Maybe you could provide some feedback compared to OEM when you get a chance.

    I am trying to decide between the single & dual as well. The factory header looks pretty open to my eyes. Not sure of any gain to swap out the original header...unless you just want to eliminate a can. I don't mind two ...looks to be a much easier install to just replace the cans too. Video sounds sweet...

    I'm certainly open to some input on this consideration. Much as i'd love to drop as much weight as possible. I also have a concern for keeping things running as cool as possible. So questioning weather either would show much difference on this issue?
    I could see by eliminating the cats from the stock cans and going for slip ons, this would help things breath better. As would a full system no cat. I prefer the idea of a single, but might have to go with a cat in head for Ca emissions. Also might help dampen the sound. What then concerns me going that route is just how hot that header would get, knowing the stock setup has already burned a rather large hole in my textile pants. Days above 90 deg are painful on the left knee!
