Much much lighter.
than what ?
I have had stainless pipes on Harleys, & had them crack. You don’t have to worry about discolouring as you can hand polish ( lot of rubbing ). They sound different too. They were lighter than the D&D 2 into 1 race system I replaced them with. The D&D was built to last!
Hi
What do you reckon? What other material are you using for pipes?
Thx for the input. I have decided to pass the stainless.
Still seems expensive. You could get a TBR, Bassani or Fab28 exhaust for that money
My only personal experience of stainless pipes on a motorcycle was a "Gazelle" 4 into 1 system I bought for a 1976 Kawasaki z900 around 1984.
Made in South Africa , it was well shaped and sounded good , curved around the underslung oil filter.
So you did not need to take the system off to service the oil filter and sump plug. ( Some other brands at the time fouled the oil filter access )
The downpipes "blued" almost instantly , single skinned. The stock OEM z900 downpipes were double skinned chromed. That was a wee bit "fugly"
