I've emailed my demand for the order to be cancelled and issuance of a full refund..

$60 to ship one but $400 to ship 3 . Shocked

WOW what a rip .

Put 2 in a box and 1 in another? mix and match headers and mufflers in 2 boxes to get more efficient use of space?

OR ! Honor your business practices, EAT this one learn from the mistake and make the appropriate changes to your FREE shipping policies !

Brett, How about more pics? Full top & side pics? Do you think pipe will allow oil changes w/o removing? Thanks!

Must have boxed them up in the same container?

Ordered one over the Christmas break- received e mail today- out of stock for more than a month...... Bummer

I'm sorry to hear you guys are having those issues, that sucks. my transaction was very smooth.

As for fit, it's been 30 below windchills outside, so I'm not sitting in the unheated garage working on it. It's going to have to wait.

Know any Merchant Mariners? I think they get special rates.

Found their web site, it is not a big operation:

I had no problem with my free shipping when I spent more than the required amount....I received my stuff in less than a week as well. Lightning fast.

Then again, I wasn't trying to game the "free shipping" practice by group buying three of the largest items that cost the most to ship either.

I'm sure if you ordered one pipe and something else (as the business intended) you would have received your stuff with free shipping.

You tried to pull a fast one, and it didn't work....Stop crying. Some people are always trying to scam everything and everyone.

I normally review the web sites shipping policies prior to ordering anything.

Their site says:

We may charge customer for extra shipping fee even if his/her order apply for "free shipping" when the order cannot be packed in one box.

any updates on this brett? did you get it on? will it need to be removed for oil changes? any thing else you can think of?

Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2015 3:36 pm

No update yet, but soon I should get it out of storage. The snow is gone, it just needs to warm up now!

Eric,

I think this is the same pipe on this bike in this thread.

Could it be that the poster of the exhaust for sale used a translation that was incorrect. I think it should say that if your order comes to $418.50 or more, the shipping is free.

Well I finally bolted it on and test fired the pipe today, after I welded on an O2 bung. It bolted right in with no issues. Frankly, I think it went on much easier than my V&H pipe. Build quality is very nice.

The sound with the stock baffle is very nice. A lot louder than I expected for a baffle with a 1.12" id straight thru section. It's a nice loud though. It sounded very nice and throaty, but barks when you get on the throttle. I have a larger 1.56" id baffle on order to try, but that may be over the top loud. Thought I'd give try and find out.

Overall it's a very nice pipe. The only drawback is the paint on it is CHEAP. There is no doubt I'll be sending this out for ceramic coating during the winter.

I recommend this pipe if you can still get them.

On a related note, does any one have any thoughts on what id of a straight thru baffle is required for a 1100F with CR33's on it? Is a 1.12" id baffle going to choke it?

Just to clarify, the center stand must go to fit this pipe on.

Brett,

Does the header leave enough room to change the oil without unbolting it? And I'm sure we'd all love to hear it if you get a chance to post a clip...

Thanks!

The oil filter will not come out with the pipe on. Nor could you run an external filter adapter.

Changing the baffle on my Yosh to a straight through setup made a change that I never would have thought would be that big. Its not over the top loud, hell, I cant even hear my bike when I ride with my Harley buddies.

Dropping the header to change the oil filter is a non starter for me. That sucks. Especially when you consider how often I have to change the oil on my bike. Probably every 6-8 weeks.

Posted: Tue Apr 28, 2015 7:25 pm

I can handle dropping the header once a year to change the filter. I don't put a lot of miles on in a year, so it's not a big deal. $10 for new exhaust gaskets also.

Miles. Its turned into my primary transportation. And sometimes I'll get bored and just go bust 150 miles on it. Granted the last month or so hasn't been that way, but Ive been fixing it Laughing
