 Just fitted. The sound is perfect no where near offensive even with both db reducers out.

Nice pipes, pity about the ugly bracket that holds it on, spoils the look for me

I do agree with you Porter, I didn't like the bracket myself when I was fitting it, thought they could have made it more secure with neater individual brackets but maybe someting to do with production costs or tooling to make same parts fit different machines.

How is the Scorpion exhaust holding up Alibx11? just contemplating buying one, I bought a Delkevic last year but sold it again because I found it just too loud and annoying even with the baffle in,I would like a change from the stock sewing machine sound but not too much louder, I also found mpg dropped a lot with the Delkevic but I was probably also revving the bike out a bit more.think I might just go for the stainless finish,it will be hidden by the pannier anyway.

Hi blokes, I’m in the “I want one!” Boat. But I have a question regarding the lambda sensor.
Is it removed when you fit the new system?
Do we need it for the bike?

Is fitting this when you have a centre stand fitted, a tricky job?

Anyone up in the Catterick area hahaha

The lambda sensor just screws into the Scorpion exhaust, and there are no issues with having a centre stand or pannier rails fitted either from what I have read, not sure if the bike needs a kn type air filter or remapping to suit the new exhaust though, I might just pull the trigger on one soon, my only concern would be if it was too loud for touring, but again from what I can find out with both baffles in it's not too loud, watch this space.

I have a set of early scorpion cans on mine sounds great with or without the baffles in :thumb:
