Exhaust Remus or TwoBrothers

[roadcrave]

I'M shopping for an exhaust system for my new 2001 k1200rs, 1st need more power mid to 5000rpms and 2nd Id like 90DBA and above, anyone with knowledge on this topic appreciated, I dont know why two brothers you have to repack them every 10,000 miles, and Im looking for a clean install also and something that wont corrode over time. ...Matthew

Contrary to many claims, a Remus or Two Brothers do not increase "power." The only thing they will do is make more noise. They are lighter than stock - no catalytic converter.

Any exhaust that uses cheap packing to control noise from their exhaust is just that, CHEAP. A Remus or Staintune would be better than a TwoBrothers.

And your wasting your time if your looking for an increase in mid-range power. People make the mistake of thinking that since its louder it must be more powerful. With most aftermarket exhausts you will lose midrange power and maybe pain a few horsepower on the very top of the RPM range where you spend very little time.

But I understand the desire to have a more pleasing but not obnoxious sound. I have a Staintune on 2 of my bikes.

Remus works for me

Just put a Remus Revolution on my 2 valve '86 K100RS and like it very much. Don't have the before and after Dyno results, but I would say there is an increase in power. Really like the sound of it also. Considering one for my '96 R1100RT. Buy the Remus.http://www.motorsports-network.com/aremus/index.htm .

Im drawing the same conclusion about two brothers packing and steel wool as a muffler, Im swaying towards Remus at this pont, seem like a better finish and muffler...matthew
