Cheriff, think about a scorpion bro.

Heres a video I made, please excuse me being geared like a squid, it was awhile ago, i said F*** it, i dont do that crap anymore.

(I also have an install video, watch my face when I fire it up, its an amazing thing to hear man. REAL throaty and bassey at low rpm, straight race bike rocket RAAAAAAR at highs)

Also dont forget. Scorpion has a lifetime warentee, never needs to be repacked, polished AND stainless, and you get 50% credit towards a new one if (god forbid) you wreck and its damaged.... $271 sounds like a steal to me.

I do really appreciate your help Ed. So much in fact I have refrained from using "beaner" this entire thread . Ok,, well maybe now I used it, but you know what I mean. My ONLY issue with the scorpion is that I really want the carbon look. Not for the weight loss or anything like that, but just the look. I have heard too many people say the Yosh is too quiet, and I want to try something other than D&D since I already have one. That's kind of why I have come to the conclusion for the Hindle.

I took a chance on one from Ebay. At $300 including shipping for an oval carbon hindle. I will pick up the midpipe from parts411. With the money I might save, I could get some custom stuff made up at a muffler shop if things dont go together like they should. I will be sure to let everyone know the quality of the seller.

Are you serious.. I never came across one. Probably because it is never listed for the Kat.

Just for the record I did a search on "beaner" and I claim ownership on that one. I laughed out loud when I saw there was another member named unclebeaner. I thought it was Nero signing on with a new account.

HAHAHAHA I saw that username like a week ago (it was his birthday or something) I thought the same thing oh well....

And you started beaner??? I dono about that id have to talk to my grandfather about that one.

I bought my Oval carbon Hindle, with the hanger, off eBay for $210. I bought the mid pipe for 100 canadian. I love it, it is quite when you need it to be and loud as hell when you get on it. I ride with Duc's and they always say they love the sound of my rice burner. Funny thing is, I live in Port Perry where Hindles are made and I bought my in the US on eBay. Welcome home my precious......

Ok ok... grandpap probably wins.


Ed, since I needed a couple more bucks to get the free shipping I ordered the Ninja EX500 windscreen to do the low profile windscreen mod. They had a dark smoked one for ~$40. I figured it would be tough to find one cheaper than $30 (even used) once I factor in the shipping I would have to pay if I didn't order it. The Parts411 website leaves a lot to be desired, and there checkout process seems a little scary, but as long as they ship what they say they are selling and only charge the right amount they have my vote.

Once you get your Hindle, POST A SOUND CLIP! Please
Those are pretty hard to find (only found two from hardlydangerous so far).

They were perfect for me, I wouldn't recommend them to a fellow KR brother if they were ****.

[Cheriff]

The ebayer informed me the hindle will include the universal hanger. Sweet! That is a nice relief. I didn't want to have to make something.

[Cheriff]

Scheduled UPS delivery is next monday. Had a little panic attack last night. I checked the tracking number and it had "encountered an exception" at customs. Another half hour later it was back on its way.

[600Kat4EB]

Congrats on the purchase!

hindle

Let me know how you like your hindle. I have a friend who has 1 on an fz1000 and it sounds great. I am in the market for an exhaust for my kat 750.

[Cheriff]

Ok.. need some help/advice.

I received my carbon Hindle a few days ago and found some scratches.. see below:




The seller has been in very good contact, and I have no complaints with them (probably even praise). They have offered to send another one out (and pay for shipping to get this one back), or offer a $90 refund. That would make the purchase price only $210.

What do you think? Get the new one without the scratches, or take the refund? Is there a way to make them less visible?

[Dom]

Personally, if there's no way to make the scratches less visible, I would get the new one. Otherwise, even for 90$ they would bother me.
But, if they're all underneath the can... might not be too bad.
