    Jekill and Hyde

    Very expensive (5K+ from memory) as they can switch modes and the engine ECU needs to recognise the modes

    Thanks, FYI. A very nice looking set of pipes, but 5k is a helluva lot of Shekels. I think I'll stick with V&H. Cheers.

    Interesting concept! Two exhaust sounds controlled by a valve inside the mufflers, which is, in turn,  controlled by  servo activated cables with controls on the handlebars. Effectively, you then have a 'Cop' mode, and a 'Fuck you" mode!.

    This is their website explanation:

    Why the name Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde?
    The name “The Jekill and Hyde Company” is inspired by the book “The Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” by Robert Louis Stevenson. The electronically adjustable exhaust system is named after the legend of the doctor with two personalities as described in the book written in 1886. Just as the doctor our exhaust system has two distinct personalities:

    Dr. Jekill
    The Dr. Jekill sound is a social sound, as required by the environment and/or law. A sound which will not, for example, disturb your neighbors when riding away on your motorcycle early in the morning.
    Mr. Hyde
    Where the environment and the law allows, you can free the Mr. Hyde sound. The Mr. Hyde sound is a deep and warm rumbling / throaty sound which makes the motorcycle experience complete .

    Anything on that bike you will find on Thunderbikes page as they built it. The Germans build some killer bikes, but also have a great range of custom parts you don't see much of on our shores getting around. Very expensive gear, but quality.
