Does anyone here have any experience with Danmoto exhausts?  Their very cheap.  Here's the link to their site.

Never heard of them, and the price looks suspiciously low to me. There again it could be a heck of a deal.

Update - look on the Contact us page and you will see

Given the widely publicised problems with some Chinese goods, and the lack of any legal recourse I would avoid these products.

They might be the best damn parts on the planet, but I'd never buy them since they appear to be knock-offs of other manufacturers' parts.

Gotta love the PRC's indifference to intellectual property laws.
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

Caveat emptor.

A few guys on Maximum-Suzuki have tried Danmoto's rearsets, and the rearsets required more than a little modification to fit.

just to update...ive read into them a bit and found mostly all good reviews with fast ship times.dont know how
much of a performance increase they will give but I think im gonna give em a try. IM ordering the cf exhaust as
well as a set of clip ons with adjustable rise, I havent heard anything about the clipons yet so i guess ill be
the test mule for those too. with the exhaust + clip ons + shipping = 300.00. dont have too much to loose
so i figure why not. i will be ordering them at the end of the month so will report back on them then.

p.s. i got $2,000 to throw into mods and such so after the 300.0 that leaves me with $1700 bucks what
should i look for next? I also need a set of adj levers, grips, bar end mirrors, new chain, rear sprocket,
rear brake pads and rotor, after that im kind of lost for what to do next, that is if there is anything left after all
stuff i listed. btw i have an 05 620.

If I were you I'd wait till you have the exhaust in hand before you order any other parts. If the exhaust isn't what you thought you might be spending a little more money on something better. This is just my opinion BTW.

When you start looking at levers there are the staples...CRG, Pazzo, ASV. But some of the folks here have tried the M.Label levers from ebay and most like them. Here's the link for that thread.

I like the CRG mirrors. I have the Blindsight line, they are only 2 inches as opposed to the 3 inch Hindsight line. The only downside is that they don't come in a folding "lane splitter" version. All depends on the look you want for your bike.
Make sure you browse the sponsors list to the left, all great people and usually great prices.

You could also look into upgrading your suspension, not sure what kind of riding you do but I think everyone could benefit from better suspension.

I'm a firm believer in the need to hear an exhaust (in person) prior to buying it. The cans themselves look cheaply wrapped in a CF sleeve.



The pic of them on the bike is in the dark which also doesn't help much. Try and find someone in your area who might have a set for you to check out. Otherwise, I'd pass on them and not risk being dissatisfied.

I've read nothing but good reviews about their exhaust - google them and you'll see.

Anyone found a pic of these on a monster yet? Keen on seeing how they sit and how long the end up being.

jc.cyberdemon

Droopz

Thanks, but I guess I should have clarified. Was after a pic of the low mounted set on a 620 or similar. I emailed the seller and he said he was going to forward me some pics. I will post them if they show up.

Jeez... $75 rearsets? It's a shame they don't make 'em for my bike.

I will, however, pass on the $22 full face helmet they offer.

I received some links from the seller today.







Look ok i guess.

They look great I think, I'll probably buy a set when the time comes to replace mine. I'm confused by comments that they look cheaply wrapped in a carbon sleeve, what do you think a termi can is wrapped in? Carbon tube can be bought by the metre.
