Carbon fibre oval 2" available now

[GT250R]

I work for PitStop group and after many hints towards us importing a bike muffler they have finally done so...
Only one available so far to test the water
2" Oval with perforated internals spiralled in the centre to increase flow without ecxess volume of noise
Fitment is universal and comes with spring clips at inlet if you want to keep it removable but welding of course is always an option
Have just fitted tonight on my GT250R and I would have to say it runs alot better than the standard muffler I had modified internally by Virgin mufflers no where near as much back firing or popping off throttle and the accleration is alot cleaner on first ride tonight
any inquires are more than welcome
Happy riding all!!!!!!!

[SwanTiger]

Looks nice and suites the bike, how much are they?

[Mr. Peanut]

Wow, it looks really fast *giggle* :motu:

Gees poos, that was PROPER wit! Not your normal half attempt at all.

I think the pipe looks great GT, and if you're happy taht's all that matters. Ignore the snobs.

[Mr. Peanut]

I love it, I'm just jealous 'cause all the girlies won't know any better. :wait:

HAHAHA ABOUT THE SAME SPEED AS AN FXR150 EH. CHECK OUT SWANNYS PIC AND PROFILE WHAT A TOSS, nMMMMM HYOSUNG,.....

[SwanTiger]

fxr 150 has odd gearing which gives them 130 kmph top end or there abouts, maybe more, hyosung gets there much faster and goes to 160 kmph or more.

tristan go crash your bike again, you missed a fairing

<img src="http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/customprofilepics/profilepic2317_32.gif">

[N4CR]

I HAVE PERSONALLY WITNESSED (ON A TRACKk....) 164KMH ON THE SPEEDO IT WAS IN REDLINE ABOUT 1/3RD TEH WAY IN TOP GEAR.

REAL SPEED WHO KNOWS, BUT STILL SIMILAR SPEEDS.

edit thats the fxr. I hope the owner don't read that or get reminded ;)

[SwanTiger]

no not similar, i have had mine speedo reading 168 kmph on flat at 10,000 rpm with 10,500 rpm red line, only taken it up to 160 'ish three times to see what the top speed was, but quite easily hit 120 - 140 with no problem, i know a fxr can't do that without a good run up so there is no comparison.

don't talk shit unless you know your shit

ZXR 14sec 1/4 mile
GTR 18.9sec 1/4 mile
Scooter 19.4sec 1/4 mile

[SwanTiger]

ZXR 14sec 1/4 mile
GTR 18.9sec 1/4 mile
Scooter 19.4sec 1/4 mile

I presume that reads as:

45 HP CRANK ZXR 250C INLINE-FOUR FOUR STROKE@ 145KG
27 HP CRANK GT 250R V-TWIN FOUR STROKE @ 155KG
19 HP CRANK GILERA 180CC TWO STROKE @ 105KG

Point being, in retrospective of the GT 250R's traits it is not slow. Although it is no where near the fastest.

I imagine a good exhuast would give it a lot more power too, it would be interesting to see how much extra power is acheived with this particular new exhuast considering the stock ones are rather restrictive.

EDIT: Who cares anyway, the GT does highway speeds and more. If a person only enjoys a bike going fast then I don't think they'll be riding long unless you hold a career in racing. Stop knocking the fucken hyosungs, they are alright for what they are.

[texmo]

Rember the zxr is 12 years old and gtr is new with thoughs 1/4 mile times and a gtr is slow why are you bothering to talk it up?

[SwanTiger]

I'm only interested in correcting false comments so that prospective buyers of a Hyosung who might happen across such a thread have accurate information to base their decision on. When I upgrade my next bike more than likely isn't going to be a Hyosung, however I'm excited to see a company develop its brand in a Jap dominated market. Sounds stupid, but I suppose it is the same as someone who likes Rugby and follows a certain player through their career.

[N4CR]

Mine is 15 years old tex.....

I dunno if you were using dry or wet figures there but mines 160 wet.

Tops out indicated around 200.. real 190.

:whocares: leave the guys thread alone....you want to talk this shit start your own.

[NSR-Dan]

12 years ago full fairing sport bikes like the ZXR CBR were built as race road bikes.
you should be comparing the GTR to a full fairing comuting bike of the day. like the ZZR.

[ZeroIndex]

No I was reading it and read this though I might comment.

[Buster]

Looks cool. How much are they?

[GT250R]

WIll be able to sell them to all the kiwibikers for the demon price of 270 incl gst orders welcome...........lol

[N4CR]

Shit that's friggen cheap for a CF can... what are the mounting points like? I'm looking for another can for my bike, have 3 already :|

60mm between mount holes and in triangular fashion is what I'm looking for.

Are they very loud or easily made louder if they are very quiet? I don't want a silent bike I need something pretty free flowing cus that's what it's tuned for..

edit: just saw spring clips... argh

[imdying]

Seems like an ok pipe for the price :) Definitely a good candidate for road rash replacement.

As far as the Hyosung vs 250/4 goes... one is old and slow no matter how you look at it, possibly screwed to within an inch of its life, but fashionable... the other is new and slower still, with the worst panel fit / general finish I've seen on anything new in a long time. Might as well ride a second hand GN250 till you can buy something that's not either over priced, or shoddily built.

[Mr. Peanut]

4/4's aren't slow. Compare them to the grand prix 250's of yester-year, honda RC162 and the like. Incredible machines.

[SwanTiger]

....and i now own a GPX :D

Let me know when that Tank starts leaking again or the Engine craps out again, I'll sell you my Hyosung :blip:

250/4's aint within a inch of their lives I have seen a few with over 100,000kms and as for slow compared to what? a busa?

[aff-man]

that end bit looks pretty whory though...:sick:

But not a bad price for a can

Slow wtf...

Man what have you been smoking. I'm yet to see another >250 4 stroke go past me in a line or a corner apart from texmo one time.

The IL4 250's of 'yesteryear' are still the fastest and best handling 4 stroke 250's ever made, end of story. And yes I will prove it if you have a bike you think is better. Game? I've ridden almost all the common 4 strokes and none are as quick.

And as texmo said I have seen them do over 100,000kms a few times... at least 3 I know of that are no slower or stuffed than ones at 20k, so go figure, they aint' as shit as you try to make out. Funnily enough it's two ZXRs and one CBR. Guess most of the CBRs get written off huh :lol:

Slow compared to 250 2 strokes.. not really that much but they have a bit less accel and top speed. Last 2 stroke 250 stopped production in 04, RS250. Nice bike.

And shoddily built? The old ones sure as hell ain't. Built much better than all the new bikes that seem to be made out of tinfoil and cardboard honeycomb...... drop it and it's a write off type shit.

[Sketchy_Racer]

if you have a bike you think is better. Game?

yeah ill race you on my KRR150.

Should be even.

[texmo]

Money on tristan, I have seen you race and I have seen him 'walk' away from me on some roads where I couldnt go any faster. In saying that though the road is a diffrent story all together I am not that fast on the track but im semi-decient on the road.

[GT250R]

that end bit looks pretty whory though...:sick:

The finish is nice trust me or it wouldn't be on my bike!!

Only have this one muffler available for now so oval is all I can offer ya comes with mounting bracket as well to attatch to frame which you can move up and down the muffler any where you'd like

auckland must have alot more faster people round there.

In wellys everyone one a 400cc or lower bike i have killed on the road if i liked and a good majority of the big 1000s as well.

I might be racing the KRR at mafeild next round.... should be intersting

We'll have to fix that then eh :nya:

I agree with you Tris, the little 2fiddy/4's are awesome on the road. It's a real shame that they stopped devloping them 15 years ago, 'cos I'd love to see how far they could have taken the concept.

Still, the ones still around have stood the test of time pretty well, despite the numerous hidings and droppings they've been met with.

I reckon Honda or Kawasaki should build the old design 250s (and the 400s) in Mexico for cheap like VW does the old Beatles.

EDIT: Very nice exhaust btw, and a bargain at that price. I'd have bought one for my 250 back in the day.

[NSR-Dan]

Last 2 stroke 250 stopped production in 04, RS250. Nice bike.

they still make 2 stroke 250's but there all GP race bikes. so technicaly there not a production bike.

[Mr. Peanut]

That's like bringing a piece of 4 X 2 to a Gun fight.

Especially if you intend to challenge Tristan. Go masturbate and come back with a clear thinking mind.

A 150 2-stroke has as much acceleration as the ZXR and less weight. Those are serious bikes :angry:

[N4CR]

Yeah sorry I should have been more clear, yep I was meaning production and what you said is correct.

[N4CR]

A 150 2-stroke has as much acceleration as the ZXR and less weight. Those are serious bikes :angry:

Uhh.. not the ones I seen and ridden, remember mr rg100 moaning about how the zxr's were dicking them on the straights and complaining?

edit: modded should be similar but then go stick a turbo on a zxr250.. hahahahaah\


edit: where the fuck is kapiti.. cheese and stuff eh?

[Mr. Peanut]

I was waiting for a bite :nya:

Port and pipe vs complete engine overhall and tuning for the turbo + weight.

1 cylinder 1 carb and 2 valves dicks 4, 4, and 24 BURRN :blah:

[Sketchy_Racer]

That's like bringing a piece of 4 X 2 to a Gun fight.

Especially if you intend to challenge Tristan. Go masturbate and come back with a clear thinking mind

Maybe you should learn a bit more more before you go off like a trumpet.


remember mr rg100 moaning about how the zxr's were dicking them on the straights

Yeah damn right they are. And so they bloody should with a extra 100cc.

My 'race' bike is a RG150 with 50,000kms on its original piston. A stuffed powervalve servo. and harden pirlli MT75 tyres. Which are complete crap in the wet and dry compared to the dunlop TT900 and Dunlop GP70rs or what ever the code is.

My KRR on the other hand makes about twice the power of my 'race' RG. Only lets down on top speed.compared to the 250s But only by a little.

Thats why i want to race it.

[SwanTiger]

Maybe you should learn a bit more more before you go off like a trumpet.

I was referring to the context of YOU vs. TRISTAN not BIKE vs. BIKE ... Trumpet boy.

Well tristan is the fastest rider on a 250 I have ridden with, there are a few fast riders but not a lot. If you had a road race with tristan in tight stuff there is no chance of you beating him IMHO.
I hope you do bring the krr to manfeild to even the playing feild.

[N4CR]

Hmm this is why I try refrain from 'talking it up' on the net but this time I did and shit happens sorry for wrecking your thread man.

[Sketchy_Racer]

I was referring to the context of YOU vs. TRISTAN not BIKE vs. BIKE ... Trumpet boy.

well you have no idea how fast i can ride. Im not saying im faster than him. Cause im probably not. But i know im not 'that' slow. I have no idea how fast tristan can ride. Thats why i would enjoy the opportunity to have a ride with him.

There is only so fast you can ride.
and on the road unless you like speeding, power is not as much an issue as it is on the track.

Hence the reason i can keep up with bigger bikes most the time. as Tristan probably can to.

[Sketchy_Racer]

Hmm this is why I try refrain from 'talking it up'

If no one talked it up, This site would be one hell of a boring place :yes:

[texmo]

If no one talked it up, This site would be one hell of a boring place :yes:
sure would wheelie king

[Sketchy_Racer]

Next round at manfeild? are you gonna be there? Tell Tristan to come down :Pokey:

Its the full circuit which is really cool (so they say)

[GT250R]

save ya money and get a bike to fit the exhaust :nya:
need a full licence first....:scooter:

Wow, it looks really fast *giggle* :motu:
you have to ride one to really appreciate the speed...:gob: - lol

I owned a FXR 150 for a couple of months and just sold it it was an '03 I got it to 154 down hill

[SuperDave]

No no you're all wrong - I'm the fastest. You guys sound like kids.

[GT250R]

No no you're all wrong - I'm the fastest. You guys sound like kids.



Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Thats Funny

[N4CR]

What did you get your fxr up to then ya poof? Just 'cus the one I was on went faster! :nya:

[thehollowmen]

My 650 doesn't go as fast as your 250s go
:crybaby:

[boomer]

need a full licence first....:scooter:

i'm only joking mate, they're nice lookin bikes :first:

[GT250R]

i'm only joking mate, they're nice lookin bikes :first:

All good man should have put a lol after no offence taken...lol

[NSR-Dan]

this all reminds me of who can piss higher comps at primary school.

i would wip all your asses on my nsr, but i bet if i was driving a 4stroke 250 tristan would kick my ass.

[SuperDave]

What did you get your fxr up to then ya poof? Just 'cus the one I was on went faster! :nya:

Hit 156 Indicated on the flat straights at Puke.

[Bulldog]

Would love to try these puppies on my VTR1000 buddy. Wonder if they'd handle the Vtwin bang.

Any idea of how heavy they are?

[texmo]

Next round at manfeild? are you gonna be there? Tell Tristan to come down :Pokey:

Its the full circuit which is really cool (so they say)
Nah hes broker than me, Yeah it should be good I just wanna do full circuit then I will be content.

[GT250R]

So is anyone here talking about my muffler??????

[texmo]

So is anyone here talking about my muffler??????
yeah somebody did a while back.

[Sketchy_Racer]

So is anyone here talking about my muffler??????
sorry mate.

It does look mint though. I bet it gives the GT250 a bit more of a roar as well?

[Sketchy_Racer]

Nah hes broker than me, Yeah it should be good I just wanna do full circuit then I will be content.

Out the back is sooooo much smoother than the main track. and it doesn't have pot holes either!!

But it does have crap as expansion joints which suck

[texmo]

Yeah apparently a few people have spun out on the joints done complete 180s. Its off camber too.

[R6_kid]

Dont worry about superdave, i found out yesterday that his middle name is maurice (i shit you not) and that he loves tea, also he cant do wheelies or stoppies and he rides a 600... oh noes :nya:

[Sketchy_Racer]

Yeah apparently a few people have spun out on the joints done complete 180s. Its off camber too

Really? jesus...

Still more coners = more fun :yes:

[texmo]

You can do stoppies?

[R6_kid]

not as good as you tex, but i can get it up.

[texmo]

not as good as you tex, but i can get it up.
I already knew that bro, but I was talking stoppies here...
Tristan is fucking good at them aye his rear tyre is like 5 feet off the ground easy if not more.

[GT250R]

Would love to try these puppies on my VTR1000 buddy. Wonder if they'd handle the Vtwin bang.

Any idea of how heavy they are?
they are quite light but very well made, will be able to handle the V-twin bang for sure we gaurantee all our mufflers for two years and being they are so new to the market I have no problem putting it out there that if you don't like it we'll give you your money back!!! Within reason of course !!!!!!

[N4CR]

Is it real carbon fibre? I just can't believe it's that cheap but I suppose you are cutting out the middle man if you are making these yourself or are you importing from china etc. Also can you get but plugg things those restrictors that make it temporarily quieter when you put them in...

They are real carbon fibre !!! I couldn't believe the price either when our produst buyer told me we will be retailing them at 350incl gst each so you guys get a good deal at 270 they dont have any silencers available for them but with the design they aren't hugely loud like some of the after market cans out there they are a tolerable loud the internal design helps to keep them at a reasonable tone without restriction on performance

[imdying]

The expense in carbon fibre is in the manufacturing, it's labour intensive. I'm guessing they've got a machine to make up tubing, which eliminates the labour cost, which makes it pretty darn cheap.

About 10 years ago, Racelines here in Chch was making carbon fibre mufflers for $300 each.

When it's made in China it's always going to be cheaper than anything made here they just pay there employees next to nothing..

[fozz rock]

Hastings pitstop dont know shit about them.

Is this an auckland only thing???

these are so new they aren't even loaded in the national system yet !!! If they want to find out about them get them to ring Lance at the Greenlane branch I can fill them in on it all

[Bulldog]

I'm happy to test your carbon pipes on my VTR1000 if pit stop want a test bunny :P

[Kickaha]

you forgot the bit about how they used to fall to bits within a few months :yes:

[imdying]

you forgot the bit about how they used to fall to bits within a few months :yes:To be honest, I only ever saw one, and that was on a mates CBR250RR. He used to cane crap out it (too damn noisy), and it was still there two years later. Having said that, they looked like they'd blow apart if put on the back of something a little less gutless :D

[fozz rock]

What was with applying the resin on the inside and not the outside? Only time I've ever seen it like that. Yeah, twins have a reputation for eating carbon cans :innocent:

[GT250R]

I'm happy to test your carbon pipes on my VTR1000 if pit stop want a test bunny :P

Haha I suggested that to our product manager also and was given the answer of silence !!!!!!! I can do mates rates big time on fitting for ya if that helps your decision any!!

[GT250R]

Fitted ine to a '01 GSXR600 K1 yesterday sounds really good not too loud just a deeper note and well within new noise regulations so if your after something loud these probably aren't the cans for you but if you want contrlloable noise then I would definately reccomend the tone of our Carbon cans

[GT250R]

Right given you all time to chat about it whos up for buying one lol

[NSR-Dan]

ill sell myself my own carbon exhaust thanks

[Ghost Lemur]

Good on ya GT250R for getting a "car shop" to bring in and sell an after market bike bit. This can only be a good thing, so hope you guys sell a bucket load.

[SwanTiger]

Right given you all time to chat about it whos up for buying one lol
Does the quoted price include installing/fitting the new exhuast? I might be keen to go ahead and purchase one in a week or two.

[fozz rock]

Are you still selling them???
Anyone put one on a vtr250???
how much fitted???

[GT250R]

haven't fitted on to a VTR 250 yet no..... but compatibility is the same as most after market cans they are suitable for all styles and power ranges (within reason of course) Our mufflers are more than suitable for the specs of a VTR 250 we can fit no problem we are in penrose/greenlane area you can get hold of me on 579 2302 frmo Wednesday onwards as I am on Holiday at the moment

Thanks

Lance

[fozz rock]

Moving flat so when i get the time will do
i'l just rock on up to the napier shop and put them on the spot :rockon:
and when they dont no what im talking about i'l get them to call ya :dodge:

[GT250R]

Have more cans in stock now boys if you're out looking for some new mufflers 399 for a carbon oval fitted cheap cheap
