Just looking at slip-on cans for my CBR600RR, although Yoshi, Akra, Arrow seem to be the top end of the market and demand the £££, I've looked at more British makers too. So, Beowulf, they are based only a few miles away from me, but are their exhausts any good? Or is it a case of you get what you pay for?

what Craig said, they are very popular on the 14 org because of the great noise.

Interesting.... Not a sales pitch then Craig? hehe wink

Seriously, might have to pop down to the factory and take a look to see for myself. Never actually seen one physically.

I've got one of their cans on my blade. I bought it second hand off ebay and just stuck in a new baffle. I really like it, finish is good, easy to fit and sounds good. No idea what it does for power.

Mine looked and felt very well made, baffle was a bit of a joke and never fitted properly, but that was OK cause it sat on the shelf for a year until i sold it...

I've got one (a Warrior in s/s) on my CBR, it's well made and cheap for what you get, but it hasn't done too well for the power delivery (needs a fair few revs to pull away or it bogs down and stalls - worse with baffle out so I have it in at the mo) and it doesn't clamp too well to the headers (but that may be partly/fully the fault of the headers as they are also aftermarket. It might also be me mucking up the gasket. I haven't ordered another one @ £8/gasket yet!).

It sounds nice though, really nice.

Can't help thinking that ZX10 would look better with a bit of rim tape biggrin

I've got a carbon one on My Bandit and I love it, has improved the power shed loads and it sounds awesome! Great customer service as well!
