Exhasust Pipes...

Hi All,
I have a stock 2003 R1150RT with only 10,000. mi. on it. Was wondering if anyone would have feedback or info on switching to a Staintune or Remus Exhaust system. Wanting info on weight & performance. Pro's/ Con's of either from those out there who own and switched to either one.? Thanks in advance All!
Regards,

I added a Stantune system to my '94 R1100RS. At the same time I added the Techlusion fuel and air controller. Dialed it in, which was pretty simple. The bike then had a nice pleasant sound. It felt like it had more pep in the step. I guess it's probably 1/2 the weight of the stock system. I did this many years ago. I liked it. The bike was rated at 90HP before the mod and I'm sure it was 90HP after. Would I do it again. Yep. Any comparable BMW now probably has 110-130 HP, with no mods.

Staintune is out of business. If you want a nicer sound, try one with a catalytic converter eliminator. A buddy has this one and its quite pleasant.....

I got a 08 RT and put a remus muffler on it with a K&N oilit air filter. yea it gave it alittle more pep, and after about 10K miles the muffler sounds preaty darn good. its got a lowww Growlll. the orginial muffler is called a silentcer for a definite reason it sounds crappy. I don't like straight pipes on anything that's street rode, but lets face it the mustang GT and dodge RTs and the camaro SS all have great sounding stock exhausts and the RT should too. mine is not loud but definitely sounds good. expensive heck yea like 700bucks. dosnt sound like a souped up weed eater either. and the chrome muffler body looks way better than the woven kevalar look.
