New exhaust from PM-Tuning 'Thunderbolt'
Verfasst: 10. September 2006, 08:03
Hi all
I got a new exhaust from PM tuning, about one week ago.
And it is a crisp little thing
The "carbon wannabe" surface is just painted on a rifled stainless-steel silencer, and then grinded a bit off, so it looks like carbon.
Anyways.
Got I mounted - and what a sound! I'm in looove :]
It got a nice deep sound and the sound is similar to a 1 cylinder KTM-crosser/enduro motorcycle.
And the performance is unbelievable.
The entire mid-range and top speed is almost doubled up.
It handles headwind and top speed (and acceleration for that instance) a LOT easier.
The only thing that restricts me is the RPM-limiter. That kicks in, at 155km/t on speedo ( 135km/t real)
So a all together judgement would be: (vor und nachteile)
+ It looks great
+ It sounds good
+ It perform super
- The Carbon effect is not that good. My brackets were loose, so they took some of the paint off, and left it with some blank steel.
- It fit like a dog. You haft to fiddle with the bracket, to mount it right.
- Price is too high. The exhaust is just a GPR, with some adjustment. (And you haft to add 16% to TAX and 40 euro to shipping)
