im looking at importing some pipes for my bike when i get it, apparently the arrow tune or the triumph off road tune suit the pipes in question. does anyone know the cost of these?

I suspect it's arbitrary - costs you nothin if you buy pipes from a dealer.

Each time I've been hit up for $45. Plugging into a socket is hardly 1/2 an hours work but there you go

P.S saw ya lurkin in www.triumph675.net the other day.

Check out these too: www.street-triple.co.uk and www.triumphrat.net

i think they look nice and are alot cheaper then any other option out there i just emailed him asking about the db rating on them, would hate to get them here and not be able to get a wof

if all else fails ill just slap the factory ones back on for a wof

Yeah, many Speed Triple guys reckon the CRMs are a good piece of kit. I got my dual arrows at a good price from England and de baffled they are 80db at idle and 95 ish when cranked and they seem pretty loud to me but still comply.

Keep us posted

Sounds like a good deal - I hear they sound killer. You'll have to join us Striplers on a southbound ride so I can get a squizz and hear em in the flesh

AMPS had Microns for the Street Triple for $900 earlier in the year - they are the last few as Micron are no longer doing bike exhausts.

They are pretty tidy - if a little on the large side. In saying that though the Akras and the Mivv GPs are pretty huge too

Email Carl Rosner Triumph in England - 605 Quid including shipping and insurance.

Jack Lilley London weren't far off either.

At the current exchange rate that works out at $1528 NZ, then you pay GST on that and a small customs processing fee - you're still saving $800

Not the cheapest option, but here's my recommendation.

I spent a lot of time pissing about with tunes on my S3, but I was never really happy with it until Kerry got to work. Opunake isn't too far from Hamilton.

I've got the CRM's on my S3 and there's no problem with the WOF. In fact the comment I recieved at my last WOF was "Bloody nice sounding exhaust and not silly fucking loud".:yes:

Dunno if they are a bit more strict with bikes, but I've had my car (pretty bloody loud) through the Parnell VTNZ 3x since they started apparently cracking down on loud exhausts and apart from one guy saying that if I got pulled over I would be fined, they didn't have any problems with it...

That sounds good.
Am leaving my Daytona & Speed Triple with him for a few weeks shortly for tune setups etc.
Heard good things about him.
Its a long way for me to take them there, but sounds like it will be worth it.
