need new exhaust for m900

i need new slip-ons for my old m900 city [bang]

i was riding back from bear mountain after installing a new suspension arch and tidying up the tail a bit and, all of a sudden, the bike started sounding much better [Dolph] ``wow,'' i thought to myself, ``the new hoop has really improved the sound of this bike!'' then i realized, after a few more miles down 9w, how unlikely that was. so i pulled over and looked down. straight pipes on the right side.

shit [roll] where can i find some good new cans for such an old beast? need suggestions please. it wasn't an expense i was counting on, so i'd like to keep the cost to a minimum. but i also don't want cheap chinese crap. i like the look of MIVV ovals, but are they well built? it seems like GPR makes a quality product -- says hand made in italy -- do they sound sweet? i'd also dig some used termis, but they're rare...

thanks for your help! really appreciate this board.

I run mivv high mounts  on my 900. Fit and finish are great (cArbon)
Heard low mounts stick out kinda of oddly. Mine sound real good
No db killers and not to loud

Check the sponsors.
I've seen Leo Vince and Arrow pipes for a good price.
Used carbon Termis cost $500+ here [thumbsdown], new alloy LVs can be found for less up there [thumbsup].

dude, what kind of rearsets are you running? i'll probably go with MIVVs, but i was thinking ovals. you think they'll sound similar?

anyone got GPRs?

Cycle Cats and I'm sure the ovals will sound similar to the rounds, which sound awesome.

I picked up a brand new pair of staintunes from the factory for $500 (usually $1295) plus $8 fuel  ;D. Admittedly for an S4 but they fit.

Send then an email or check on ebay they still may have a pair left. They did have some hi mounts for about $700 - $800.

i am going with the MIVVs -- i want the ovals with carbon caps. but i need to find a better price than $900 [thumbsdown] will be looking on ebay, as it looks like some dealer puts them on there for random prices that vary greatly... [coffee]

any help would be appreciated! this old monster is worth $4k tops and i've plowed over twice that into it now in the past year. [bang] but i love her, just the same. [wine]

I've got stock rearsets on mine. Where they bolted up the angle was weird because of  the length of the rearsets. Kop your bike is why I got Mivvs, Ijust got hi mounts. But your bike is the best looking bike on the internet.

What are you guys with hi mounts and rear sets doing for heat shield on the pipe? I just got the ducabike rear sets which are awesome but I can't avoid the mivv pipes
