Africa Twin is HERE !!!

I had a drag race with one tonight and held him for the first 3 gears - on my Forza 300 :augie

As he lives in my development I'm looking forward to meeting him again soon on my SA :green gri
 
Arrived on my bike this morning, did a 250 mile ride today and all I can say is WOW now feel happy enough to sell all the Versys bits, it rides as well as the Versys without doubt may not be as quick but the power is very usable the handling superb

Sorry but I'm not liking the Termi-it's far too long !!
Pleased I went for the much cheaper and (IMHO) better looking Remus :


 
That Remus looks much better. How's it holding up, scratch wise, Arsey? The black Akrapovic finish scratches very easily.
 
I'm with you, attached to the standard headers/cat the Remus has it but a Termi full system:drool

I think it's the huge heat shield that spoils all the cans to a lesser or greater extent ?

For that reason the black Remus looks little better than the black Leo Vinci (a long length of black drain pipe).

The Termi looks so nice 'cos firstly it looks 'rallye ' and secondly 'cos it breaks up the heat shield a bit. Whilst the Termi headers are indeed lovely the main reason they look good is because (in your picture) they dispense with that heat shield.

Can I say I prefer the oem Honda can in preference to the Termi/Remus or Leo Vinci

None of them look as good as the Akra on the GS WC either

Just my thoughts
 
Friend of mine is coming down for a weekend, in a couple of weeks on his AT, with a Remus. Looking forward to having a go on it!
 
I didn't like the headers as to all the bits welded together but have been looking and did order them yesterday !!
also ordered a Schuberth E1 in red white and black, ordered a pair of original panniers and bought a pair of Daytona boots so all in all it was a good day for spending

Scratch-free at the moment.It seems a very resilient finish.
Remus are very qood quality and my second choice after Akra.But I didn't like the Akra for the AT.Plus that Remus was under £300 !!

Yes,the full Termi looks great in that picture, with all those exquisite welds.BUT the only thing is you can't actually buy it !!! :blast That full titanium system was only made for show and the one Termi sell is merely a stainless system with the end can given a rather naff titanium sleeve.

I agree headers would be good to rid the boxiness of the OE items but it would need remapping as the fuelling will be somewhat altered.I'll wait and see what the Arrow headers look like when available as I think they'll be a good quality item.
 
The Arrow is up there with the full Termi in the looks dept (I think the Termi end can looks slightly better). But, it's a full 'race' system with no baffle db killer. Not that that's a big deal, but it is nice to have a choice.

Yeah, that is nice :) Judging by the colour I'm guessing it's Ti?
