    Well i finally got the Bassani road rage 11 for those interested here's my view.

    Bassani market this exhaust as upswept, and it is i can't see how this exhuast will ever scrape.

    On the bike it looks nice, and it is heaps quieter at idle by at least 1/3, overall whilst riding it is a lot quieter.

    Whilst this exhaust might give someone doing aircleaner and exhaust the power mid range they might want it was not up to the expectations that everyone told me that a 2 into1 is the holy grail my Vance & Hinse bigshots will be going back on.

    As you can see with the dyno comparison although done on different dates, temp, klm's on bike etc the bigshots smash the road rage everywhere with a stage iv kit fitted. The V&H bigshots made 120.98 hp and 120.45 torque to the Bassani 113.14 hp and 113.13 torque.

    All figures aside we all know seat of the pants is really where it is at and yes the power loss is dramatically noticed on the bike. Monday Fred is going to flash my old tune back in with the bigshots going back on and while we are at it he is going to do a back to back dyno run of the two for a same day comparison.

    If anyone is interested in buying the Bassani's let me know.

    If you really want bang for your buck with no scrape issues loo for the TWB (Two Brothers racing) 2-1 pipe.

    Just goes to show that not all 2-1 pipes are the same, or the holy grail as bozza puts it.
