    can you please post a video of the installed silencer and also give more info on the power bump?


    Guys I enquired with AreaP, they are willing to ship it to India, PFB an extract from their mail

    "Hi Bhushan,

    Thank you for the inquiry. Yes, we ship to India. The shipping cost is $95.00. We ship by USPS and it normally arrives in 6 - 10 business days.

    So your costs would be - $495.00 for the full system with standard carbon fiber muffler. $45.00(this was optional, I asked for it) for the Exhaust Hanger Bracket. Shipping cost is $95.00. Total - $635.00

    If you would like to place an order, we can send you an invoice via Paypal.

    Sincerely,

    Kerry Bryant - President"


    Guess I'll wait for at least 10k KMs so that I appreciate the upgrade
    But in all probability I am definitely going for this!

    • Hey Bhushan, the exhaust will sound something like this... It is a full system, so you can expect a 3-5hp boost, assuming you use a power commander along with it. I also have a brand new power commander which I can sell to you also... That will set you back by another 18k, as it comes without a box... I think it retails for 21k+ in India... Cheers!!!

        Thanks for the inputs buddy, but i'm not sure if I will be comfortable experimenting with the exhausts basis on "something like this / expect" .

        No hard feelings but I hope you understand where I'm coming from after watching like a million videos an several reviews of two brothers/yoshimura/scorpion/akrapovich/AreaP, it sure will take me a lot more than that to change my mind.

        If you have documentation of the real deal in video/photo/text that will be of help.

          Thats an awesome deal Bhushan. The slip on's such as Arkapovics, Leo Vince's, Two Brothers etc. sold here cost nearly this much, so if you are getting a full system for the price of a slip-on sold here its a fantastic deal (that too incl. shipping).

          How much duty would be imposed on this? Any idea?

            No issues bro, I totally understand your concerns... I have contacted my supplier for the same. If you do decide to give this system a chance though, I'll offer you a 1 week money back offer, no questions asked... Use it for a week, if you don't like it, get it back... It's the least I can do for my first customer... Lol

                No idea on the import duty as such. But I will try an figure that one (my uncle's in the indian customs so..)

                BTW, guess I told those guys that i have a fuel injected model.. to which they replied

                "For FI models - we recommend installing a Dynojet PC5 with our custom map installed for maximum performance. This kit disables the Oxygen Sensor and allows proper air/fuel mapping which is required for our full exhaust system. Price for the PC5 with our map installed is $345.00.

                If you wish to only purchase the exhaust system, we can supply you a stainless steel oxygen sensor bung that you can have installed/welded in the proper location on the exhaust system. Price for the O2 Bung is $25.00. "

                Have mailed them back asking for the power boost difference and videos.. lets see..

                • Hi Mates

                  It has been a while now since i return here.
                  I have AreaP full system CF.

                  I Suggest you go for 18 inch Quiet core.

                  The 12 inch is soring to ears after 25-25 kms even with ear buds.
                  Of course it is sweet sounding but tooo loud.
                  And if you really want loud, then go for custom 16 inch.
                  Kerry will help you with that.

                  Quiet Core 18 inch is NOT quiet at all.
                  It is plenty enough to stand out from the crowd and the sound is MUSICAL to ears for hours of riding in a stretch.

                  And, yes don't forget to inform Kerry about the sensor bung.

                  • More pics of the exhaust... I have ordered oxygen sensor bungs from the US, so will weld them on before I dispatch all for a princely sum of 20k...

                        Hi Buddy, since you are a first hand user, please help me with the below questions

                        Was there any import duty involved in getting the silencers?
                        Does it hamper the engine in the long run?
                        Did you think of installing the dynojet kit?
                        Did you get the bung installed here or did kerry install it for you?
                        How is the performance bump?
                        Is the 12" really loud? like blaring loud? more like a bullet silencer without the baffles type blaring loud?

                        Can you please post a video of the silencer

                        • Hi Guys,

                          ORdered for few accessories thought of sharing with you

                          This delivery waiting period is making me go mad over aftermarket products and accessories...

                          Have ordered for all besides the rear sets, confused if i need them from a functionality point of view... as far as looks are concerned they look super hot! They cost $200 including shipping thru ebay.

                          • Was there any import duty involved in getting the silencers?
                            No duty. I bought it in person.

                            Does it hamper the engine in the long run?
                            Don't know

                            Did you think of installing the dynojet kit?
                            I installed PC5 with Autotune, Messed up with FE and smooth delivery.
                            Tried to tune it with the help of various forums and Laptop.
                            After 3 months i was not satisfied so gave it to my friend in abroad.

                            If i get a map for AreaP i would retry it.
                            Last time i started with Yoshi Map which is available in their website.
                            I also removed snorkel.

                            Did you get the bung installed here or did kerry install it for you?
                            Kerry did it. (It is just a nut where you can screw in your O2 sensor)

                            How is the performance bump?
                            Noticable improvement in low and mid range.

                            Is the 12" really loud? like blaring loud? more like a bullet silencer without the baffles type blaring loud?

                            Yes. You will be tired of it in some time and think "should i have bought a bit quieter" Unless you are a college guy.

                            Can you please post a video of the silencer

                            Please click here for std and quietcore videos.

                            First and second are quietcore.
                            Third video is of standard.

                            All are sweet sounding. We can't make the difference in loudness via youtube videos. But listen to the first video which has quiet core installed "it is not Quiet"




                            Thanks.

                            Sam

                              They sure look hot. The first thing I noticed when I first rode the 250R was that "I needed rearsets". With 6 feet height, not all bikes suit me as far as riding position is concerned. My knees used to go above the "shoulder" edges of the tank, because of which it was difficult for me to grab the tank with my knees.
                              So I got these. and by the way how much did the black-white levers cost you? I was looking for the adjustable ones available on planetdsg, but exploring other options.
                              Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                                Which city are you in Sam? Would love to hear the exhaust in person if possible. A friend of mine was going after the Hot Bodies MGP Growler and i asked him not to and instead advised him to go with the M4 and he's super happy with the M4. Sounds very deep and bassy and pretty loud too. But this is only a slip-on pipe that he got on the bike. I liked the sound too but the stock engine and exhaust note still turns me on.

                                Thanks for the pics. Dont know if its the quality of the pics but the end can doesn't look all that aesthetic in my honest opinion. Was hoping for a much more pleasing and sporty look like the Leo Vince's (ask the Italians for making anything look artistic )

                                If the exhaust system is designed specifically for this bike, then it wont damage anything in the long run. Meaning, if the design is done keeping the engine's limitations and specs in mind and as a baseline while testing (dyno runs etc) is safe.

                                Nice. Its such a nice feeling isnt it, when you order the goodies for your sweetheart and its constantly nagging you and you can't wait to put them on her and see her flaunt them?

                                As i mentioned earlier, any modification that is designed specifically for a particular bike or engine is safe.
