Those Quat D's look naff .....IMHO

As for the termi's yes they sound good,and look better than standard, but god aren't they expensive especially when you get them from my dealer.....

Is it just me or do they all seem a bit 'low', I dont like the gap between the seat and the pipe,I know there are probably clearance issues but I think they'd all look nicer if a little higher and make the most of the space between them and the wheel.

I have to agree, need to be tighter up to the subframe.

Just came across this (mentioned in a thread a few years back).

https://www.fastweb.co.uk/spaceshack...04c293c3c9a13d

I would like one for my S4, but 696 not listed?

Note that its got "EU road approval"!

I see what you mean, but I reckon they are probably mounted in the exact same place as the standard cans, but are just slimmer thereby giving the larger gap to look at.
TBH I think the only ones I've seen so far that actually improve the looks are Termis......They just look 'right'

I agree,i paid £700 for mine. They really do sound absolutley awesome. I even have harley riders coming up 2 me saying how nice they sound.

To be perfectly honest the termis werent designed for this bike... This bike was designed for the termis

Nipped into Snell's today to order a gel seat, and they had a pair of stainless steel Termis on display. They are shiny and I like shiny things. And I especially like stainless steel, but I can't afford them..... Really I can't

£575, including filter and ECU, is closer to the right price though. Pretty reasonable I think.....
(And they gave me 10% off the seat)
