    I am very interested in getting rid of the monstrosity that is the std exhaust. Looking for something much slimmer, so I can fit similar size panniers on both sides. (my ocd wont allow ne to have 2 different panniers)

    Something similar to what is discussed on this forum would be ideal

    http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=d0q0afn0n02dr8q5n3gios39b4&topic=123948.120

    I have tried joining that forum to ask some questions, but cant for some reason. (plus they speak some wierd language)

    Anyone know what effect a twin system would have on mapping and fuelling?

    Well, it says the headers were manufactured by De Graaf.
    Google it:

    That looks great with the pipes coming through the inside hole of the swingarm! Looks like you have to get your own cans.

    Ordered the short Wings. Price is 519 euros incl shipping and should be here by the end og August :-)

    Compared to the Akra it is a very good deal. Price is about 60 % of the Akra. It's also better looking. Hopefully it also sounds better :-)

    The email I received from Gorazd had the cost at:
    644 Euro is more than I want to pay as I could get a Akra for not much more.

    Your price is probably including vat.

    nah, only reply I got was:
    "The 1190 R with the twin exhaust system sounds exactly like my 990R which was fitted with Leo Vince cans.

    For more information, pricing and orders on the twin conversion for the 1190, contact Jan Burger 072 864 9185 - he was the project manager on the twin exhaust system.

    I know they've made jigs and moulds (on the exhaust pipes and soft luggage side racks) and intend to market the complete system locally and internationally.

    I believe the complete twin conversion will be less than the OEM Acro canister......

    This is exactly what I wanted.....the 1190 now sound and look like a KTM!"

    Good luck with that one as AFAIR, the Akra for the 1190 is £780. But maybe you have contacts.

    My Wings, delivered (with a £25 bank transfer charge :rolleyes ) was £550. I've also listened to the Akra and it's pretty quiet. I guess I was expecting more, plus it still looks a bit lardy. The quality of the Wings is right up there and it also comes with a choice of baffles.

    Here's the shorty beside the standard pipe.
    I had a few mates over to help lift the standard pipe off:lift
